Riverview Apartment - River Road Historic Home
Historical Landmark Victorian Home with Panoramic Mississippi River Views! -----------------------------

As you enter the home, the grand entryway will escort you back in time. The look and feel of this elegantly updated home brings you a sense of tranquil serenity. The living room has comfortable seating with natural light…a perfect spot to read, converse, and play games with family while enjoying panoramic Mississippi River views!
Each second-floor bedroom has its own private bathroom, in-room Keurig coffee maker, fast Wi-Fi, and TVs in every bedroom and living room. The front King Suite features a king bed, seating area, bay windows with cozy window seat, yet more grand views of the Mississippi River, and a tranquil blue (private access) bathroom with shower/tub combination is just down the hall. A second King Suite boasts a king bed framed by windows, with an in-room shower, en-suite bathroom, and sitting area. The last suite features an elegant with four-poster queen bed, en-suite bathroom, full sized closet, and a cozy sitting area which also overlooks the river.
The curved front porch and patios make for easy evening conversation and even more enjoyment of the views of the Mississippi, bluffs, and surrounding area. Two suites upstairs also have access to a charming river-facing second story balcony. Such serenity, you’ll never want to leave!
The kitchen is completely updated with modern appliances and a dining area. The kitchen is fully stocked with all necessary cooking basics (pots, pans, etc.) as well as table service for six. With all the windows, you’ll love how comfortable you’ll feel.

Look out the window at fishing boats, jet-ski’s, and even large cargo barges – such a cool sight! Small town charm and a host of coffee shops, galleries and tasty eateries are just a few of the gems you’ll find downtown.

Fountain city house
There were six adults and an infant staying in the house. One of my sons opted to stay in a hotel instead of using the air mattress.. The bedrooms were nice, and comfortable The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed.
There was no high chair as listed in the description but most of our meals were eaten out.so that wasn’t a problem.

Comfortable and close access to Driftless area!
We enjoyed our stay very much. It is in a safe area. The home is well stocked with kitchen place settings. We appreciated the filtered water pitcher. The beds were comfortable too! Hosts were immediately receptive.
We would stay again.

Weekend family get away
My sisters, my husband and I came down for the Shakespeare festival in Winona as we have done the last few years. This time we chose to stay outside of Winona to do some other sight seeing. This was a great location and a great property. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

Happy with stay
We had a great stay at this property. Bathroom for everyone. Noise from rail and traffic wasn’t an issue and I’m a light sleeper. Sound machines were a great bonus for that.

Fountain City 2023
We stayed here in January 2023 and were very happy with the place. We had 7 adults and 2 dogs. The bedrooms were all spacious and well equipped including a private bathroom for 2 of the 3 bedrooms, we were in the upstairs unit. The kitchen was a bit small and the living area was downstairs, it would have been nice to have it all on 1 floor. However, the place is lovely with some beautiful views of the river. The location was fine, right on the main road so plenty of street parking. The trains do run at night but I didn't find them too loud and they do have sound machines in some of the rooms. Logan the host was great, he kept me updated all throughout the process,. I would certainly stay here again.

Friends
We were three high schools couples reuniting after 50 years and wanted to meet, relax and enjoy the area. This place was perfect! We loved the house with the porch and view. We could walk to the restaurant/bar part of town. The owners have a well kept home and thought of all the details. The owners were thoughtful and checked in to make sure we were comfortable.
