Absolutely perfect cabin for our weekend. We were in town for a wedding and the biggest downfall is that we didn’t get to spend much time at the cabin! We hope to be back for a more relaxed weekend where we can spend time in the beautiful cabin!

Beautiful property with a beautiful view. The hosts provided lots of games, both indoor and outdoor, and comfortable amenities. Has a cabin in the woods feel but still a very easy quick drive to La Crescent and La Crosse.

Great place for exploring the river towns

Everything was great and exactly as described. Loved the screened in porch for reading and relaxing, although it took a little getting used to the sounds of motorcycles on the highway! Didn’t hear any of that noise when inside the house. Lots of games, puzzles and a fully stocked kitchen. Thanks!!

Much needed quiet week

The cabin was very well stocked. When we do VRBOs we have a plastic tub that we take with us with things that are often not supplied. I don't think we even open the tub while at River Den. We thoroughly enjoyed the screen porch, even though the beginning of the week was cold and wet. The beds were comfortable, and we appreciated all the extra throw blankets available. We enjoyed a drive along the Apple Blossom Scenic drive and headed into La Crescent to eat a couple times. But overall, it was a great a place to do nothing and recharge for a few days.

Great place to relax.

The home was very comfortable inside and out. It was evident that a lot of thought went into the recent remodeling effort. There were many nice design elements which made our stay very enjoyable.Everything that we needed was there, both indoor and outdoor. We walked in and immediately felt at home.We enjoyed the deck, grill, and especially the fire pit.The property is not as secluded as had wished. We highly recommend booking this property.
