The Harwood House

This circa 1940 story and half house is a NON-SMOKING property located in a quiet residential neighborhood with off street parking and EV charging available.
The 3 season room, which is a favorite, is perfect for morning coffee or an evening night cap! Newly remodeled kitchen & bath.
Extra bathroom amenities include a heated ceiling fan and towel bar warmer.
We are blocks from St.Feriole Island and the historic Villa Louis and Dousman House. It’s a short distance to downtown for shopping and dining.

Wonderful little house for cozy stay. Clean and comfortable. Had all the amenities you would expect to find in a quality hotel. Quite neighborhood except for an occasional train passing through on the tracks a block or two away.

A comfortable well appointed house in a perfect location many activities.
We had a great 3 night with our dog at Harwood House while enjoying the state parks on both sides of the river and the Effigy Mounds National Monument. We were also able to walk to downtown Prairie Du Chien as well as the very interesting St. Feriole Island Park and the Mississippi River. The house was perfect for us and exceeded all expectations.

Wonderful stay
We stayed 3 nights, and had a great time. Everything was as described in the listing. The sun porch was nice, and really loved the coffee bar. We stayed when it was very warm for this time of year and the upstairs window air conditioner was a life (sleep) saver! Don't hesitate to book this property.

Just what we needed
We were in the area for a wedding. The house was great with enough room for all 4 of us to spread out and get ready, so much better than a hotel room. The only downside is that it's close to the active and very busy railroad tracks, but that would not dissuade us from staying here again. Thank you, Shirley!
