Welcome to the Oneota Vista, a private apartment on the second floor of our house with beautiful views of the Oneota valley. Our home is located on the Trout Run bike trail (an 11-mile paved loop which winds through Decorah). It is a mile walk to downtown Decorah, and less than 2 miles from Luther College.

This cozy apartment is the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day of exploring, canoeing, hiking, biking, fishing, shopping, and checking out the local breweries. The unit consists of 2 bedrooms, a private bathroom, a full kitchen, and open living/dining space with beautiful hardwood floors. The main bedroom has a queen bed. The second bedroom has two twin beds with an additional trundle for a 3rd person. Also, the futon couch in the living area can be used as a bed if needed.

Notes

With the view, we have a gravel driveway to traverse the hill. While the driveway is not an issue for most of the year, it can provide challenges in snow during the winter. Also please note that the remote location makes internet access difficult, and the valley can impede cellular access. While Wifi works great for general email/web surfing, it is not ideal for streaming or Zoom videoconference.
