Parking was easy and secure, even though the driveway was very steep. The house was wonderful and had everything we needed. The patio and deck had amazing views of the Mississippi River. It would be nice if the windows had blinds but since the street is secluded it wasn't much of a problem. The owner was so helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend this place!
