NEW Central Air!! Cute, family home, large fenced backyard and patio area!

Great neighborhood! Family owned and loved for 3 generations. This is a new Dubuque listing in 2022 but I am a Premier Host with 7+ years of an excellent hosting track record on VRBO/HomeAway. Gain confidence in my attention to detail and customer service by viewing my reviews of my other property #4965021 in Phelps, WI.

This cute, brick, one story 1940's home was fully remodeled in 2022 with a fun modern vibe. The entire home is one level which is perfect for families with younger children or individuals who enjoy a nice place without steps to navigate. Why pay for 2 or 3 cramped, cookie-cutter hotel rooms with uncomfortable sleeping arrangements when you can spread your family out in 3 bedrooms and get a good night's sleep for less money? Our cozy home is located in a nice, safe, centrally located area of Dubuque very close to Flora Park, Bunker Hill Golf Course and the relaxing Body & Soul Day Spa. We are 1/2 a mile from Clarke University, less than a mile to University of Dubuque and 1.5 miles from Loras College. Emmaus Bible College is 1 block away. Bunker Hill Golf Course (public course) is 4 blocks away and you can walk just a few blocks to one of Dubuque's biggest and best parks. Flora Park has several fun kids play areas, a wonderful community swimming pool and several tennis courts. Hillcrest Park is also just a few blocks down the street in the other direction. Our home also has a large, newly fenced (June 2023) flat back yard that is great for kicking a soccer ball around or playing frisbee. Dogs love it! New patio area added June 2023. Home has convenient off street driveway parking for 2 vehicles. No steps to navigate to the entrance.
During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Bell Tower Theater. Features include laundry facilities. The vacation home offers free WiFi and a kitchen.

Absolutely beautiful property and that backyard… beautiful! Property was exactly as in photos and description. Close to major stores like Walmart, HyVee and Target. Home had everything one would need and more. Beds were comfortable. Living spaces were well decorated. The area was also quite nice. Cheryl, the host, was extremely accommodating and helpful. She was very easy to get a hold of when needed. One of our top favourite rentals to date!! Highly recommend and will stay again when we are back in Dubuque! Thanks a bunch Cheryl! You made the whole experience lovely!

This was the perfect spot for our family. The fenced in yard was great for our pups. Cheryl gave great instructions and was a pleasure to rent from. If we go back to Dubuque, hopefully this property will be available.

Cheryl was a phenomenal host - was super responsive and sent us tips and reminders but was not overbearing. The home has Dubuque vintage charm but was cozy, warm, and well kept. The fenced in space for our dogs was so nice and they enjoyed fetch and running around after a long day in the car!
