Remarkable view of Mississippi River Valley. Birds galore, at feeders and on river. Bring your binoculars. Birders would love this location for exploring birds of various species. Great beauty to experience at Eagle View Lodge.

Cute little motel, great view. A little outdated but we don't mind as long as it's clean! The bed though.....very hard and uncomfortable. For that reason we probably won't stay again. Otherwise we would!
