Maiden Rock Cottage | 40 Acre Wooded Retreat Overlooking Lake Pepin with Lakefront

2 Bedroom Cottage in Maiden Rock

"Lion Downe" cottage, the perfect get-away with all the extras (new large hot tub, free WIFI, satellite, firewood, etc.) , located in the heart of the Rush River Valley, along the scenic Mississippi corridor with brand new large hot tub and expanded deck with unparalleled views of Lake Pepin and the surrounding majestic bluffs.
Stunning log home, as featured in Log Home Living Magazine, is nestled in the bluffs, with breathtaking views of Lake Pepin from every room in the house, and from the large deck. The serenity and cozy feeling is accentuated from the surrounding 40 acres of private majestic hard wood forest. 660 foot of lake frontage, easily accessible from the lake (but not from cottage up in bluffs), with variable sandy beach depending on the season. Located 13 miles downriver of Red Wing, near the Wisconsin Villages of Maiden Rock, Stockholm and Pepin. Just 60 minutes from Minneapolis/St. Paul international airport.
Fishing, hunting, hiking, biking, bird watching and relaxation right out side your back door. Shopping, fine restaurants, and quaint small towns with antiques, arts, crafts, and frequent festivals all within a short, pleasant drive along the lake shore.

Summary: This is a marvelous, unique cottage. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Will definitely book again.Just a few notes to be sure of before you book.1. The pathway could be difficult for any one with difficulty walking. The walkway is stone and is uneven in places. If you need a flat surface for walking the walkway maybe not work for you There are lots of great wagons to haul stuff down to the property.2. There are areas of the walkway that are not well lit. Have your phone flashlight on if you come in the dark.3. There is the ambience of trains coming through and the sounds of gun shots from hunters. We loved it! 4. Most of the sleeping rooms are in the lofted area. Beautiful, absolutely amazing. Those sensitive to noises at night will need earplugs.5. The lofts were a hit with the teens in our family.6. We also enjoyed the hot tub and 4 season porch. The kitchen and dining table are great for a large group. 7. There's plenty of parking.8. This was a great experience and we will book again. Be certain this fits your needs if mobility is an issue or if you need ansolute quiet at night.The master suite was so comfortable with a large en suite bathroom.The whole cottage is impeccably clean and we'll stocked.
