Both bathrooms were completely redone in Winter 2013.

Great Place, Great Location

Perfect, would return
Thanks for the kind response. The place is indeed popular with and perfect for two couples. We have lots of guests comment that it's better than two rooms at Hotel Winneshiek (right next door) at half the price. Hope to see you soon. Thanks for staying.
