Labor Day Get Away
This property is everything that is advertised plus. Host stopped by shortly after we checked in to make sure everything was up to expectations. Gave a lot of great recommendations for things to do and everything we tried was spot on. Game room was a blast and grandkids loved the chickens and collecting eggs. Kids are already talking about making a return trip.

Perfect Fit
We came to Decorah to show our adult children where their grandparents met (Luther College) and meet up with some family friends. Our family of 5 had plenty of space and the game room was perfect for the little down time we had. The location to town allowed us to come and go to Nordic Fest and easily access anything we wanted to do in town. We hope to stay here again in the future.

Perfect Place for Family and Friend Bonding
This was our second time staying at Urban Edge. The home is spacious, clean, and cozy. It comes well equipped with all the essentials and lots of little extras. The beds were really comfortable. The game room in the garage has everything you need to have a fun night in bonding with your family and friends. A perfect place to stay when visiting Decorah.

Great weekend in Decorah!
Our two families had a fabulous weekend playing ping pong, working out, watching March Madness, making meals together and collecting eggs from the chickens. We loved exploring Decorah and had a great weekend.

Great place to stay
We loved our stay at this property and will definitely rent again. It’s perfect for a group of adults or family and if you have young kids they have a really cute play area under the stairs. The mattresses are all new and very comfortable. The place was very clean and charming. They even had a Christmas tree set up and tasteful decorations throughout the house. Loved the fireplace. There’s a chicken coup out back and our whole family enjoyed looking for eggs and watching the chickens. Kitchen is updated with nice appliances and dishes. It’s convenient to town and Luther College. The game room would have been a lot of fun if we’d had more time to use it. My only suggestion would be to have more silverware and some sheet pans for people who plan to cook most meals. Otherwise we felt there were many thoughtful touches. Hosts were very responsive. I highly recommend this property.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very clean and well stocked with basic necessities. Amy and Jackson were promptly attentive to our needs and questions before and during our stay. We loved the property privacy of the back yard and collecting eggs from the chickens. 😊 We are planning on coming back in the near future to stay here again! Loved the Decorah area!

Lovely home, great location
We throughly enjoyed our stay! This home is clean, spacious and well decorated. The location is ideal just a short drive to downtown Decorah. The owners were very responsive and welcoming. The back yard is large & there is a nice big outdoor dining table as well as a chicken coup! We will absolutely look to stay here again. Nice for families too as we had a toddler with us and they had a toy closet, too.

Great for our trip
The house and property were very nice. Great living room and kitchen. A few things were not quite polished, like the headboards were not attached to beds and were noisy. Asked a few questions before arrival that I did not get answered so we ended up bringing a pack and play and a baby gate that we’re not needed. On the plus side, the house does have baby gates, a pack and play and a highchair. They are working on a game room and workout area that will be very nice to have. All in all great place and will keep it in mind for future stays.
