This was a very nice property. It served our needs as we were in the area for a quick get away with the family. It is a quaint little town right on the Mississippi. Would definitely stay there again if we head back in the same direction. Very responsive host with any questions we had.

Loved it!

We very much enjoyed our stay! Beds were comfortable and the update to the bathroom was beautifully done. The location was perfect for our Annual Girls Trip. Great for exploring Pikes Peak and Wyalusing. McGregor is a charming little town with food options and a cute new coffeehouse, The Brim. Communication with Sara was prompt and pleasant. Would recommend and will likely stay again!

Bachelorette party

We stayed for my twin’s bachelorette party and had the best time. The layout of the rooms were perfect to relax and hang out all together. It was walking distance to all the shops and bars and river access across the street and had plenty of parking. We had a great time!

It was a very nice girls’ weekend stay for 3 older ladies. It’s a very old property, so as you might expect, doors could be a little hard to open, etc. Typical old house things that come along with the charm of an older building, but all 3 of us live in older houses, so it wasn’t unexpected. Everything we needed was supplied, and it was a short walk to a variety of restaurants and a convenience store. I would definitely recommend it.
