Studio apartment overlooking the beautiful Mississippi River

This studio apartment overlooks the beautiful Mississippi River in Brownsville MN, in pool 8. It has a living room, full kitchen, private bath & sleeping area (2 queen beds). It has a private access & room to bring and park your bass boat. Charging batteries possible. Along with a fully equipped kitchen is access to a gas grill for cooking your meals. WIFI is included.

There are two boat launches within minutes of this rental. We are also located along an MRT biking highway. Eagles, pelicans, swans and other river wild life are frequently seen around this location throughout various points of the year.

Situated in a driftless region,this area is home to scenic bluffs and valleys with gorgeous views from both Minnesota and Wisconsin. We are 15 min from downtown La Crosse, WI, 15 miles from New Albin, and 27 miles from Lansing, IA. The area also boasts wonderful trout streams for fly fishing enthusiasts. White tail deer and Eastern wild turkeys make their home here and offer memory making hunting and/or scouting opportunities for interested individuals.

This apartment is along Mississippi Pool 8 area. There are many local and major league (Bass Master Elite, Bass Master Open and Major League Fishing) fishing tournaments in this pool during the summer months.

This apartment was completed as a vacation rental as of March 31, 2018 and has been full with people from Florida to Rhode Island,, from Washington to London, Beijing to London and even locals, living 10 minutes away, wanting a night away from home. It is a truly beautiful and peaceful rural location with quick access to a bigger city and all the options you expect to find there. You may see, and hear, barges and/or trains going up and down the river hauling their loads. (The train crossings are over a mile away, so their horns can be heard, but most guests indicate they are not too intrusive. )

Come enjoy a wonderful vacation with us in Brownsville Minnesota.

Great stay!
Everything about the stay was great! Beautiful view from the house. House was very clean with all the amenities we needed and more. Home owners were super friendly and helpful as well. We were traveling for a fishing tournament and parking a boat/truck and plugging in to keep the batteries charged was no problem at all.

Great Place
We had a very relaxing stay at this home away from home. The location was great for attending our granddaughter’s state track meet at UWLaCrosse. We had all the amenities we needed and enjoyed the view from our window. The host was very accommodating and gave good directions and information for our stay.

Perfect place for a getaway near the river
This stay was for a week during the high school has fishing nationals/world finals and worked out perfectly for the guys. They were comfortable and had all necessities, they had good interactions with all neighbors, and were able to park the bass boat on-site which was a huge factor. Thank you for creating this home away from home!

Perfect location
We used the property as a jumping off place in early October for a few days of seeing the Fall leaves. It was perfect for both MN and WI day trips around the Mississippi River. Boaters will find it convenient to the river. The apartment itself is well equipped and very comfortable. Thanks for a nice stay.

Perfect home away from home
Easy check in and well-designed apartment. Well stocked dishes and cookware with new/clean appliances and fixtures. Close enough to Winona (40min) and La Crosse (20min) and House on the Rock (2hrs) to be a perfect place to stay. Also, great sunrise veiws! (That don't shine in and wake you up either).

Convenient location
This is a clean, quaint rental along the Mississippi River in southern MN. The location was great for us to travel south along the Mississippi River to Dubuque, IA, east into Driftless Region area in WI and Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin, and west into southeastern MN Bluff land. Only had streaming services for TV and we could not watch our normal channels live.
