Driftless Destinations

Spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath pet-friendly vacation home in McGregor, Iowa, sleeps up to 12.  Near Pikes Peak state Park, Effigy Mounds and the Mississippi River, Driftless Destinations gives families and friends plenty of room to gather, play and unwind.

We created this home to be a place where families and friends can slow down, spread out, and enjoy time together in one of our favorite parts of Northeast Iowa.



There’s plenty of room for everyone — whether you’re gathering around the table, challenging each other in the game room, relaxing on the deck or covered patio, or ending the evening around the fire. And because we know pets are part of the family too, we’ve made sure your four-legged travelers feel welcome here.

Smart TVs throughout the home and wireless internet make it easy to relax and access your favorite streaming services.

Just outside the door, the Driftless is waiting. Spend the day hiking the bluffs, fishing or boating on the Mississippi, exploring McGregor and nearby river towns, or simply stay put and watch the deer and birds wander through the woods.

We want Driftless Destinations to feel less like a place you rented and more like a place you’re already planning to come back to.

Thoughtful extras included:

For the pups: Pet Station • Kennel

For little travelers: Pack-and-play • High chair/swing • Books

For everyone: Outdoor games • Fire-pit roasting sticks • Hammock chairs • Binoculars • Bluetooth speaker • Games, cards & puzzles • Coffee supplies • Rain gear • Local guides • Welcome extras

Spacious Free Parking: Bring your boat, jet skis, ATVs, or recreational trailers! Driftless Destinations offers an exceptionally large, private parking area with plenty of room for multiple vehicles and trailers—perfect for fishing trips, hunting weekends, and group getaways.

Small family gatherings are welcome. No parties, large gatherings, or unauthorized events. Maximum overnight occupancy is 12 guests, and all guests must follow the property’s house rules.
