3Bedroom 3bath 1870s house for getaway or events

LynnRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Ann's beautiful home was the perfect place for us to land on our way to the Grotto of the Redemption. It was easy to find and helpful to know that they live only a few doors away for anything we needed. We appreciated the historic aspect of the home with personal touches throughout. The beds were very comfortable, giving us a great night's sleep after a long drive. We wished we had more time to spend here in Algona. Hopefully we can come back some time in the future.

The Cozy Cottage of Gowrie

JeremyRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Great place overall. Kathleen even set up a space heater in the basement before we arrived since it was colder in the basement to help keep it comfortable. The only thing that could have been better was that the check out instructions said to load the dishwasher, which we did but it looked like there were some dishes already there and I wasn't if they were clean or dirty. Fortunately there was room for our dishes, but it would have been nice to just have an empty dishwasher when we got there. I would stay there again.

Pike House — Large Home-Private Yard

SelenaRating, 5 stars6 days ago

Wow! Jennifer's home is beautiful, I'm very thankful I stayed here, I almost booked an hotel, as that's what we normally do when we travel, but thought I'd give an air bnb a try - first time ever! I don't think I'll ever go back to staying at a hotel. Jennifer made us feel right at home, her house had a fully stocked kitchen with dishes, pots, pans, etc. made cooking very easy, which saved us money, no need to eat out for every meal. Cozy throw blankets, extra pillows, the beds were so comfortable! Bathroom was great, so many towels! Loved the fact that we could do laundry in the home. The backyard had great seating, loved the lights. I also loved the fact that there was toys & games to play, great when traveling with kids! Kids love playing with "new toys" Jennifer also had instructions/directions making staying in her home a breeze. She was quick to respond to my messages & very helpful. We hope to stay here again in the future! Definitely recommend!!

Brand new! Across from boat dock

DarlaRating, 5 stars6 days ago

We stayed in 2 homes at Twin Lakes and both were perfect. The tiny home is a new constructed home. And i believe its the first of quite a few. Its a beautiful 2 story home. Upstairs is two bedrooms with plenty of beds. My favorite spot was the place has a place to sit outside. It has large sliding door off living room. And another off the one bedroom. Both have outdoor furniture to relax and enjoy the scenery. They also have a boat you can rent. We spent a day boating and also fishing. Perfect place for a getaway. Cant wait to go back.
