Welcome to "New Heights" – where your vacation dreams reach new levels of awesomeness, and the fun never stops! Picture this: A 4-bedroom, 2-bath getaway that's so cozy, it practically gives hugs upon arrival. We've got king and queen beds that are more comfortable than your favorite pair of pajamas and twin bunk beds for the young (or young at heart) adventurers – because climbing up to the top bunk is still a rite of passage. Now, hold onto your hats because the pièce de résistance is a deck, perched up to the heavens, that's swankier than a penguin in a tuxedo! And with a view that overlooks the Upper Iowa River and Trout Run Trail, counting geese has never been so enchanting! Location? You're so close to downtown Decorah that you can practically smell the coffee from any one of our local roasteries. Plus, Luther College is just a stone's throw away, making it a breeze to catch that big game or musical performance. And with Dunnings Spring Park just outside your doorstep, as well as the 20-plus miles of hiking and biking trails, you'll have more adventures than you can shake a hiking stick at. Got a big group? No problem! This cozy haven sleeps 10 people comfortably. And yes, we're pet-friendly, because who wants to leave their furry sidekick behind? We're even infant-friendly – because we believe everyone deserves a vacation, no matter how pint-sized they are. But wait, there's more! During your stay, you can even rent our electric bikes (e-bikes) to cruise around town, explore the famous Trout Run Trail, and pedal through picturesque farmland. It's like having your own personal tour guide, but with the added perk of not breaking a sweat. Now, let's talk about fueling up for your adventures. We have a coffee bar that's fully stocked with locally made flavors of coffee that'll make your taste buds do the happy dance. And our kitchen? Oh, it's stocked with everything you need to whip up a culinary masterpiece or just microwave some popcorn for movie night.

Hey! I'm Sean, and I've proudly called Decorah my home since 1998. Wind turbines are my gig by day, and pedaling the trails in and around Decorah is my passion. Oh, and I'm a dad joke connoisseur. (Just ask my kids!)

Ah, Decorah, Iowa, where even the rocks have character and the wildlife knows how to have a good time! This quaint little town is like that friendly neighbor who always waves hello. Nestled in the northeast corner of the Hawkeye State, Decorah is a hidden gem, surrounded by majestic limestone bluffs and the Upper Iowa River. It's a place where Mother Nature has gone all out to make you forget about city life and embrace the great outdoors. Dunning's Spring Park, with its cascading waterfall and lush foliage, is like the grand finale of a magic show put on by Mother Earth herself. And, speaking of magic, the Ice Cave State Preserve is like a time machine back to the Ice Age. Who knew frozen history could be so cool? These enchanting experiences are practically at your doorstep, waiting to make your day extraordinary. Now, for those of you who prefer two wheels to two legs, the Trout Run Trail is a must-try. It meanders through postcard-worthy countryside and along the river, making it perfect for cyclists who enjoy a bit of scenery with their workout. (And here's a little something to make your ride even more enjoyable: E-bikes are in house, available to rent. It's like having your personal pedal-powered sidekick, ready to turn those hills into mere speed bumps!) And if you're a mountain biking enthusiast, don't forget to explore the adrenaline-pumping Decorah Human Powered Trails – they're like a rollercoaster ride through the woods. These trails add an extra twist to Decorah's already exciting outdoor scene. But wait, there's more! Decorah is also home to Luther College and the charming shopping in downtown Decorah. Luther College brings a youthful energy to the town, and downtown Decorah is a shopaholic's paradise. So, whether you're hitting the trails with your squad or shopping in town, Decorah has something for everyone. Believe me; you'll be reluctant to bid adieu to to this place without a grin on your face and a heart full of fond memories.
