Terrific house overlooking the Mississippi, but no direct access to the river, which was fine. Able to view barges, a Viking cruise ship, and assorted other boats travel up and down the waterway. There is a lock & dam a few blocks from the house that's worth visiting. The house is well stocked with dishes, pots and pans, bowls, silverware, cooking & grilling utensils. Additionally there were spices, coffee, tea, cooking oils & sprays, a jar of M&Ms, probably other things I'm forgetting. The beds were spacious & comfy; the bathrooms were good sized. One bedroom has two bathrooms. The side deck with grille & outdoor seating was large; the front deck with the riverview was narrow, but long. There were several indoor & outdoor games available, one being bean bags & boards. Shopping in the area was quite limited, but Holman (Holmen?) isn't far away and has more shopping/grocery store. All-in-all, it was a real nice place to stay. The only semi-negative is that the property is on a hill/bluff and, as a result, much of the yard is sloped & unusable. Beyond that, our stay was very pleasant and Bridgett was cordial, responsive, and helpful. Would highly recommend BRD Nest.
