Auggie's home in Mississippi

This 2017 built home overlooks the beautiful Mississippi River. It is located 15 minutes from La Crosse W, 15 miles from New Albin, and 27 miles from Lansing, IA. It is within a mile distance from a boat launch and about 3 miles of a public boat launch away Wild Cat Campground. This area is host to whitetail deer, wild turkeys, bass, northern pike, walleye, and various pan fish. Our home is right on the Mississippi River Trail for bike riders. (The house is only available in summers..we live here in the winter.)

There is room to park your boat and outdoor electric hook-up to charge it. Though the master suite is not included in the rental, there is room for 6 in beds and more if you want to bring an air mattress/sleep on couches. If available, rent apartment as well and there are two more queen sized beds available in the same dwelling.

Our house is along Mississippi Pool 8 area. There are many local and major league (Bass Master Elite, Bass Master Open and Major League Fishing) fishing tournaments in this pool. If you like walleye, northern pike or pan fishing, it is possible here too.

Situated in a driftless region, this area is home to scenic bluffs and valleys with gorgeous views from both Minnesota and Wisconsin. We are 15 min from downtown La Crosse, WI and 15 minutes from the Iowa border. The area also boasts wonderful trout streams for fly fishing enthusiasts. White tail deer and Eastern wild turkeys make their home here and offer memory making hunting and/or scouting opportunities for interested individuals. In the fall, many people travel here to see the swans/other birds in the sanctuary south of Brownsville. We commonly see eagles and pelicans all summer long.

This house is along Mississippi Pool 8 area. There are many local and major league (Bass Master Elite, Bass Master Open and Major League Fishing) fishing tournaments in this pool during the summer months.

It is a truly beautiful and peaceful rural location with quick access to a bigger city and all the options you expect to find there. You may see, and hear, barges and/or trains going up and down the river hauling their loads. (The train crossings are over a mile away, so their horns can be heard, but most guests indicate they are not too intrusive. )

Come enjoy a wonderful vacation with us in Brownsville Minnesota.

The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and 1.5 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Amazing experience!

The owner Paula was awesome! The house is comfortable, well taken care of, clean and has all the things you need. We stayed there for a bachelorette party and spent a lot of our time relaxing at the house playing games at the table and enjoying the beautiful view of the Mississippi River. Only a 20 minute drive from downtown LaCrosse. It was too hot for a campfire during our visit but we would have utilized the covered fire pit if we could have! Very reasonably priced and great place. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Our favorite things about this property are the VIEW through the huge windows, and all the comfy reclining seating! The shower was great; we had all the necessities required to make a few meals; it was so peaceful. We had no trouble with the entry code; and we REALLY appreciated the motion sensor lights on the garage, as we came back after dark one night. Thank you Augedahls!

Quiet, spacious, well maintained home with beautiful views of the Mississippi

This home was quiet, and clean. It had comfortable beds, three large TV’s, nice kitchen with many kitchen supplies, and large comfortable sectionals in the living room. The large A-frame window offered beautiful views of the Mississippi. The family’s love of deer hunting was evident in the home. Paula was quick to respond to our needs. I would highly recommend this VRBO.

Impressive, not just in stature or luxury but the overall experience with these hosts made our stay perfect. I just wish we'd discovered this place years ago. Our youngest Son graduated from UWLAX Saturday and moved back home so now we have no real need to visit the area but will keep it in our "keeper" file. Thanks again!

A friend and I had a long girl's weekend. This was an ideal location and home. We had way more room than we needed, but wanted to stay here for the view. The house was clean and very nice. The view was awesome. Beds were super comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked. Living room had plenty of seating. Paula was an excellent host. Very responsive and friendly…and she makes excellent cookies! 😋 Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Auggie's home is absolutely beautiful! We love the area so much we brought our parents and other family with us on our anniversary trip. The home was very spacious and decor is comfortable and relaxing. We brought fishing boats with us and there was plenty of room to maneuver and park. We also booked a fishing charter and the boat launch is only a mile away. We will definitely be back again. Our family thanks you!

This home is SO nice, has an amazing view, and you couldn’t ask for better property owners. We stayed at Auggie’s for a week during the MLF High School Bass Fishing Nationals and couldn’t ask for more. Paula and her husband are the nicest people and even joined us for supper a few evenings and enjoyed some southern cooking. If we make this 18 hour trip again we will definitely choose their home. Super clean, comfy beds, and every amenity one may need! We couldn’t have been more pleased!

The house itself was just stunning and very spacious. It was a very comfortable stay. Road noise was a bit of a problem as we are very sensitive to that. We could not find an access to the river which we would have enjoyed. We did like the access to other towns we wanted to visit.

Great time at Auggie’s home on the Mississippi River. Great location, clean, and great home to stay with family. Only thing I’d mention is there are family pictures all over of which I understand it’s a family home, but yet a little awkward.

Amazing location

House was very nice and clean. Sits up off the Highway looking over the Mississippi River. Huge windows in the living room with an amazing view of the river. Some type of curtains would have been nice for a little privacy, but they’re so large I don’t think you could really put any on them. But wasn’t that big of a deal. First time staying on the Minnesota portion of the river and it’s just as awesome of an area as the Iowa and Wisconsin areas of the river. And I also have to include a comment about the best cookies I think I ever had that were there waiting for us when we arrived. Don’t tell my mother I said that though. And the tabletops that they made are truly unbelievable pieces of craftsmanship. Thanks for letting us stay.
