Summary: My friends and I get together once a year and look forward to a carefree, pleasant experience. The charming but dusty cluttered rooms created a less than desirable place to hang out. The kitchen has little room for guests to put their own things and food prep was nearly impossible. The bedrooms have almost no space for guests to set our their personal items. The host was quick to respond to issues of safety that came up but lack of cleanliness was the most upsetting.

Summary: The house was simply wonderful and Signe was a gem as a host. We stayed for a couple of nights during our honeymoon and enjoyed our stay immensely! Classic china and silverware, old draperies and bedsteads and a beautiful little house in a quiet, homey neighborhood. It was lovely! Thanks so much!

Summary: The house was fine. Accommodations wete fine. But my desire to be plastic free, sustainable and to leave little footprint was stymied by plastics and electricity everywhere
Marguerite B. Sep 6, 2024 07:18:20 AM
Summary: Just as described with great communication from host.
Beth P. Aug 6, 2024 10:02:21 AM
Summary: Perfect for those who enjoy historic, Victorian properties! We had a great time and enjoyed our nightly gatherings in the parlor!

Summary: This house is a lovely Victorian House that has been restored. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is available in the house and the lovely backyard. The bedrooms especially are tastefully decorated and spacious. Each has a different theme and the beds are comfortable. The owners are very proud of this house having lovingly restored it and are always thinking and planning on more restorations. Communication from the owners was impeccable and detailed making check in and use of the house easy. They also have clear notes in the house, so we would know how to use the appliances. I found the notes very helpful. The location was great for us and near grocery stores and restaurants. It was easy to get to the places in La Crosse we wanted to visit. Our stay exceeded our expectations. A return visit is in order!

Summary: We stayed in the home for eight days while we visited family and friends in La Crosse. Had a wonderful time all the little items in the house and the history were so interesting and fun to be around. We really enjoyed our stay will stay again.
Carrie R. Jul 6, 2024 12:44:48 AM
Summary: A unique and charming historical home, full of character and interest. Host provides a wealth of information. We lived lightly (didn’t cook, use tv or music system), found beds were comfy, home is well stocked. Quiet area, lovely backyard. Special bonus was knowing our stay helped rescued horses at owners’ sanctuary. We’d definitely return!
Beth M. Jul 2, 2024 07:56:12 PM
