Nice home, could use a deep cleaning

This house was a great size for my friend group. We loved all the space. A few things that would be nice are a deep cleaning of the home. There was spider webs all over the place. The kitchen could be a bit larger/open. We like to have meals together so a larger dining room table would be grwat.bgreat.

A spacious and elegant home

This home was a great choice for our group of six, ages 23 to 85. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms were fitted out with everything we needed. A truly special stay in a lovingly restored historic home.

July 2024 3 day stay in Dubuque, IA

This is a very well maintained old house (maybe 100+ years old). I loved the original things that were left in the house although much of it was very nicely updated. Everything was very clean and the bathrooms were all recently updated. Great neighborhood. I highly recommend it.

A perfect location to celebrate a family event. Love the historic neighborhood, and the very old house that had updated bathrooms and kitchen, the important rooms for updating! The rest of the house was roomy and comfortable, and Jeremy was the perfect host with rapid responses to any inquiry that I had made of him. Perhaps we will return one day?

Wonderful weekend!

Stayed at this big, beautiful home for Loras graduation. SO much better than staying at a hotel. Tons of space, made meals, played games and had the best time. We love Dubuque and all the unique, historical homes and it was fun to stay in one! Wish we had done this the last several years and not waited until my daughter graduated! Highly recommend!!
