Hunting weekend

Great weekend! Accommodations were perfect for the weekend. Noise machines in each room were a great surprise and much appreciated. We would love to come back.

Beautiful Historic Place!!

This is a beautifully restored and decorated apartment above an old theater facing the Mississippi River. Three large bedrooms, an updated kitchen, and sweet outdoor space off of the main bedroom made this a great place to stay. The host was responsive and pleasant to work with communicating promptly. If you enjoy staying at places with history and charm, I would recommend a trip to Alma to stay at the Big River Inn!

Perfect for our family

We stayed in Alma for my niece’s wedding. The apartment above the theater was perfect for my husband and I and our two grown sons. The 3 bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. We did have issues with wasps and box elder bugs in the apartment but found some spray to kill them. Overall we had a very nice stay.

Charming unit in a charming town

We had a very nice stay at the Big River Inn! The unit looked just like the photos. The location is great; you can walk to numerous places to eat or grab a beer. There are museums, places to hike, and so much scenic beauty close by. The hosts were great with their communication. The only downside (as others have noted) is that you will hear trains here, although they seem quieter at night.

The VRBO itself was charming and nostalgic for a girls weekend. However, it was dirty. Cobwebs, dust, dead bugs and a coffee pot that we cleaned. It would have been helpful to know about the steep stairs on arrival. Luckily, we were all able to make stairs but if you have knee or joint issues probably skip this VRBO. The train was also an issue. The noise machines did not help our party as we heard the trains and horns at all hours. It was okay.

Gals Getaway

Quaint, spacious place to stay. Clean but could use a deep clean for cobwebs. No kitchen towels or dishrags to wash dishes (no dishwasher). Room Air conditioners were very loud and rackety sounding. Unfortunately, the train was too loud for sleeping, even with ac units on for one of us. Beautiful bluffs looking over the river from the winery in town. We had a lovely time.

Pepin Wedding Weekend

Great location & spacious environment. We had 8 people - everyone had a place to sleep with 3 bedrooms & 1 pull out couch. Enjoyed the back patio with use of a grill along with communal spaces. Beautiful sunset & walking locations to check out the town. Very easy to check in & safe. Convenient parking out front. Hosts responded quickly to questions. However, there was some difficulties. The place did not have a broom or vacuum - limited cleaning options. No grilling utensils - even though they were listed. No oil or spray for cooking. Accommodations were comfortable but no additional pillows or blankets for the pullout couch. Be aware that trains come through frequently - sound machines are provided. Water also loses heat quickly during showers. Many towels available which was great. Overall, we had a great weekend with some minor inconveniences.
