Small and beautiful

The cottage is small, with a very nice bathroom and a kitchen area. Very quiet road, beautiful patio. Privacy fence on one side, honeysuckle hedge on the other. Couldnt ask for more.

Cozy stay!

What a great little spot tucked away in Pepin! It was perfect for our needs. Nice space, spacious bed, full bath, and really nice kitchen. Chuck is a great host, and we got a free dessert on him when we went to Harbor View! Will stay again and will be telling our friends.

It was a nice cozy clean place. It had everything except an oven.

Came to town for a wedding

The place was as described and had everything we needed. Check-in was very easy. The bed was very comfortable. Cell service was a little spotty, but the Wi-Fi worked very well.

Perfect for us

Check-in was easy, and communication from the host was great. The bed was comfy, and the place had everything we needed. We also loved the outdoor deck area—the beautiful flowers made it feel like a little tropical oasis. We'd definitely stay again and have already recommended it to our in-laws, who have a wedding in the area in May
