Charming Historic 4 Bedroom with Hot Tub

Nice, historic house. Loved the chess board table, hot tub, outside sitting areas, and the wood burning stove! Check in and check out were super easy.

Everything was great for our stay. Loved being close to downtown and Highland House was a wonderful place to start each day and wind down.

I'm not sure the pictures do this place justice! It was WAY more spacious than i thought. Very homey. So comfortable. We never turned on a TV, nor did we get a chance to use the hot tub. We plan to stay here again sometime, hopefully for a longer time so we can enjoy more of this house and the City of Dubuque.It snowed 6 overnight prior to our departure but somebody was out there bright and early shoveling the walk and the driveway so we could enjoy our coffee and get out safely and on time. Just another classy move by these thoughtful and communicative hosts.Great job, Tom & Jill!!

Beautiful home with great views of downtown. Great space for kids and grandkids and it was easy for my elderly dad to get into.

Only reason for 4 stars was due to some of the steep roads to get to the house. Bedrooms were very bright during the night with the street lights and during the morning. We loved the house and it was so charming!

Weather was frightful, but the property delightful.

Very fun historic house! We could get my 93 year old Mom's wheelchair inside. There was plenty of room for brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins to get together and visit.

Such a gorgeous historical home with a wonderful view of sunrise and the city! My husband, son, friend and I stayed in this beautiful house during the Mines of Spain 100. The 3 others were running the 100 mile race. The home was a short 10 min from the race start/finish. Ideal location for me to head back for an occasional nap while I helped crew the race. Excellent location and excellent accommodation. Loved it!! Thanks for sharing!

We all say that this has been the best house yet! Plenty of room, gorgeously decorated house. We had everything we needed. Host was fantastic. We also loved the area and Dubuque. So quaint! This is a ten star house, highly recommended!

My family all thanked me for finding such a comfortable place for our weekend gathering. We espescially enjoyed visiting on the screened porch/patio after dinner.

This 1886 house on top of bluff is super cool. The double parlor is major highlight. I'd love to know more about the history of this house. If walking to the millwork district, use the stairway near 11th street as it's equally interesting with great views. If driving, I'd avoid Dell Street because it's so steep. Two nights was not enough time for us to explore Dubuque. I'd like to return to Dubuque and this cool property in the future.

We enjoyed our stay at this well-kept clean attractive historic house with ample modern conveniences. There was plenty of room for the seven guests, including four bedrooms, chatting on the side porch, some watching the Olympics on TV and a great ample dining room table. We would easily recommend this house to others as well as the owners/hosts who were prompt in communication.

The house is very clean and well decorated. It has many large bedrooms and plenty of space for a group of people. The kitchen is well appointed with two ovens and coffee makers. We had everything we needed to do a little baking and cooking. The dining table is great for games and eating and the living room is nice for TV time. We loved that it has central AC in the hot weather. It is also walkable to the farmer's market, library, stores, restaurants, winery, bars, and the Fenelon elevator! The hot tub is very nice at night, even in the heat and they put towels by the door. The porches are lovely to sit and chat or read. The electronic entry is great for a big group that doesn't want to always be together. We received a thorough email about everything we would possibly need to know before we got there. They thought of everything!

We absolutely loved the house! It was very clean and so spacious. Such beautiful character. We would definitely book it again in the future!

We had a wonder stay at the Highland House! Beautifully mantained and so much space for our family of six. Large bedrooms and gathering areas inside and out. Plus, a hot tub! Very clean and had all the essentials. Would recommend!

This was my families first time in Dubuque and this house was beautiful! It was very clean and spacious. We loved the covered patio. It was great to sit in there and be able to watch the kids play, at the same time. The only thing that caught us by surprise was that people could park along the road, right by the house. At one time, a car pulled up right next to the house, the kids were playing in the grass, and it just made us wonder what was going on. But then we realized that a lot of people park along that road and it’s nothing to worry about. Other than that, we loved the hot tub and even used the bbq and had a fun family bbq. The beds were very comfortable and spacious. If you looked closely, you can see the Mississippi River from the house.

Everything was perfect. Would recommend this place for anyone.

This house was a great homebase for our group. Good location, comfortable stay, nice communal spaces, small playground nearby for toddlers, a beautiful front porch, and nice screened in patio as well. Hot tub a nice added benefit. Would stay there again!
