This 2017 built home overlooks the beautiful Mississippi River. It is located 15 minutes from La Crosse W, 15 miles from New Albin, and 27 miles from Lansing, IA. It is within a mile distance from a boat launch and about 3 miles of a public boat launch away Wild Cat Campground. This area is host to whitetail deer, wild turkeys, bass, northern pike, walleye, and various pan fish. Our home is right on the Mississippi River Trail for bike riders. (The house is only available in summers..welive here in the winter.)

There is room to park your boat and outdoor electric hook-up to charge it. Though the master suite is not included in the rental, there is room for 6 in beds (upstairs) and more if you want to bring an air mattress/sleep on couches. If available, rent apartment as well and there are two more queen sized beds available in the same dwelling.

Our house 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. If you like walleye, northern pike or pan fishing, it is possible here too.

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 and 15 minutes from the Iowa border. 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. In the fall, many people travel here to see the swans/other birds in the sanctuary south of Brownsville. We commonly see eagles and pelicans all summer long.

This house 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.

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.

    Super easy check in process, the host was very understanding when we had a change of plans and allowed us to check in a night early. The house is very clean an comfortable. The view from the living room is incredible and watching the barges and trains pass was fantastic.We were there for the BASS National Championship and the boat parking was sufficient for our needs. You have to be able to turn around in a tight spot to make it work how it's all up on the hill but it's easy enough and plenty of plug-ins available. You can't turn north out of the driveway but here is a turnaround across the street that worked perfect.

    The owner Paula was awesome! The house is comfortable, well taken care of, clean and has all the things you need. We stayed there for a bachelorette party and spent a lot of our time relaxing at the house playing games at the table and enjoying the beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Only a 20 minute drive from downtown LaCrosse. It was too hot for a campfire during our visit but we would have utilized the covered fire pit if we could have! Very reasonably priced and great place. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

    Our favorite things about this property are the VIEW through the huge windows, and all the comfy reclining seating! The shower was great; we had all the necessities required to make a few meals; it was so peaceful. We had no trouble with the entry code; and we REALLY appreciated the motion sensor lights on the garage, as we came back after dark one night. Thank you Augedahls!

    This home was quiet, and clean. It had comfortable beds, three large TV’s, nice kitchen with many kitchen supplies, and large comfortable sectionals in the living room. The large A-frame window offered beautiful views of the Mississippi. The family’s love of deer hunting was evident in the home. Paula was quick to respond to our needs. I would highly recommend this VRBO.

    Impressive, not just in stature or luxury but the overall experience with these hosts made our stay perfect. I just wish we'd discovered this place years ago. Our youngest Son graduated from UWLAX Saturday and moved back home so now we have no real need to visit the area but will keep it in our keeper file. Thanks again!

    A friend and I had a long girl's weekend. This was an ideal location and home. We had way more room than we needed, but wanted to stay here for the view. The house was clean and very nice. The view was awesome. Beds were super comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Living room had plenty of seating. Paula was an excellent host. Very responsive and friendly…and she makes excellent cookies! 😋 Thank you for sharing your home with us.
