About this property

A stone's throw from the River, this amazing property won't disappoint!

Located just steps away from the mighty Mississippi River, this property has an abundance of space for guests to enjoy both the indoors and outdoors. The two large decks offer some amazing views of the river and bluffs of limestone. A cozy screened-in porch and unique fire pit area are all yours to enjoy (fire wood included). Inside, a spacious and open kitchen/living room, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and full laundry. This property is just steps away from great restaurants, bars and a marina for your convenience. Over night boat slips are available at two locations within walking distance.
The kitchen is fully equipped and stocked with essential kitchenware, including plates, glasses, and silverware. You'll also find all the necessary pots, pans, cookware, and utensils to ensure a comfortable stay. Appliances include a coffee maker, toaster, microwave, stove, and dishwasher. Additional items such as a bottle opener, corkscrew, dish soap, dish towels, and laundry amenities (with detergent) are also provided.
There is plenty of private parking on site that can easily accommodate up to 4 vehicles.
This vacation home is an ideal base for exploring the driftless area, perfect for family gatherings, romantic getaways, or weekends with friends, with or without children. The area offers a wealth of outdoor activities, including boating, recreational pursuits, hunting, fishing, and visiting historical landmarks. Notable sites include Villa Louis, Fort Crawford Museum, and Dousman House, all located on the scenic island by the Mississippi River. Nearby parks such as Pikes Peak State Park, Effigy Mounds, and Wyalusing State Park provide excellent hiking opportunities.
Spend a day on the river, tour downtown shops, visit historic sites, parks, restaurants, and nightlife venues. Fall brings with it a spectacular display of color as the beautiful foliage casts its' reflection on the calm waters below. The views are breathtaking to say the least! While visiting one of the local apple orchards, be sure to hop on a scenic hayride through the colorful bluffs! Golf enthusiasts can tee off at one of the two courses within 8 miles: Prairie du Chien Country Club's 18-hole course or Barnyard 9's par 3 nine-hole course. Summer visitors can enjoy live bands at downtown bars and restaurants or attend Music in the Park on Thursday nights for live music along the river. No matter the season, there's always plenty to do in Prairie du Chien!

This is the perfect place to stay in Prairie du Chien. Plenty of parking, lots of living area, big decks in front and back, awesome fire pit area and swings under front deck for the kids.

Perfect place for our annual cousins camping trip! The

We went with a vrbo in Prairie du Chien so that we weren’t camping. The air conditioning and comfortable space for 5 of us was amazing on the very hot weekend. We spent our days at Wyalusing State Park and then Effigy Mounds and Pike’s Peak State Park in Iowa. It was the perfect place to come back to with comfy beds and a camp fire for my nieces, nephew and husband. Husband only wished it was closer to the water to throw out a line and try cat fishing with the kids. We were all very happy with the space and location!

A Great Stay!

This listing is amazing. Very comfortable and easy to find. Very close to Prairie du Chene amenities. The host's directions and instructions were clear and easy to follow. The house was exactly as depicted in the write-up. Two outdoor decks, the screened in porch and fitepit were really nice places to relax and talk. The host has taken great care in making the house very comfortable, warm and inviting. Her attention to details made the house feel like a home away from home. Definitely a place we would stay again.
