Host was very kind and communicative. Amenities were spectacular. We loved the hot tub, even in sub-zero weather! The cabin was so cozy with the two fireplaces and we loved the little features like the heated toilet seats and heated bathroom floor. Exactly what we wanted out of a cozy cabin weekend away.
Everything about the stay was made so easy by the hosts. Instructions were very clear and the house was beautiful. Loved everything about it, the hot tub and fireplace were both wonderful. We'd absolutely love to return in the future
Wonderful place to relax and enjoy nature! The hot tub was a plus along with the wrap around porch. Everything inside was nice and very clean. The host/owner was easy to contact and responded quickly. We hope to return again.
Super nice cabin that was in an excellent location! So clean and had everything we needed for a nice relaxing weekend away! Would highly recommend and we plan to visit again!
Great place to get away from everything, very private, back-to-nature feel. Loved listening to birds, watching the wildlife. Rustic with all of the modern conveniences.
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Hidden Gem cabin. The entire cabin was very clean and comfortable. The wrap around porch is a great place to sit and relax. The hot tub was perfect for the cool evening. The location is perfect, secluded and peaceful. We will definitely recommend this property to our friends if they are visiting the driftless area.
Wonderful cabin in the driftless. Set among rolling hills and valleys with gorgeous views. Everything about the place was superb. Would recommend and stay again.
This cabin was perfect for a Christmas getaway with my husband and dog. The hot tub, fireplaces, and extra amenities (heated floors and toilet seats!) allowed for a cozy winter stay.
We had an excellent time! A peaceful property that's well maintained. Easy check in/out process and communicative hosts. Would recommend this property to any friends or family.
Beautiful, quiet, private property! Cabin was lovely and had everything we could have needed during our stay. Loved seeing/hearing wildlife and nature, especially while enjoying the hot tub in the evenings!
If you're looking for a quiet spot for a weekend with beautiful views, look no further than this place. Enough room to stretch out and enjoy nature under the stars. The house is excellent and has plenty of games and activities for either a couple or a family. We had a great experience and highly recommend this property!
This cabin was beautiful and just outside the hustle and bustle of town. Great place with all amenities and beautiful area!! We will return again for sure!!!
We decided to try a new destination for girls weekend and this place did not disappoint! The house is beautiful and we enjoyed using the hot tub and had a few bon fires. Fall was the perfect time to visit with the trees starting to turn and cooler weather for bonfires!
The cabin is located in a beautiful, secluded spot near the river. It is comfortable and tastefully furnished with a great kitchen. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting outside on the wraparound porch listening to the birds and watching the stars from the hot tub. The quiet setting was just what we needed. Hosts were very accommodating too. We would definitely stay again!
Very nice property to rent. Secluded, comfortable and restful cabin to stay in. We had everything we needed! So peaceful and quiet! Didn't want to leave and hope to come back and stay longer.
The cabin is accurately named - Hidden Gem. We enjoyed the tranquility of the location and nearness to towns for restaurants, shopping, and lovely scenery. We also appreciated the amenities in the kitchen to use to make meals. The hot tub was a special treat. The Knutson Property Services team was excellent in helping make our stay comfortable.
Lovely Hide-away overlooking the Mighty Mississippi
We enjoyed a wonderful 2-wk stay at Hidden Gem. The property is so quiet and secluded. I've never seen our dog so relaxed (us too)! We saw deer and other wildlife daily.
The house was comfy and cozy, very well equipped kitchen, great wifi and smart TV and the house was just beautiful. We lacked for nothing out in the wilderness.
We canoed the Kickapoo River which is just beautiful and enjoyed the state parks in the area, particularly Pikes Peak and Wyalusing - lots of beautiful hiking trails. Hubby enjoyed fly fishing in a few of the many trout streams in the area.
It was a wonderful, relaxing vacation and we'll be back!
