Wedding weekend in NE Iowa
This property more than met our needs for my wife, adult daughter and I!! The location was close to everything we needed. The thought the owners had for all the extra details was the best we had ever seen when staying at a VRBO…snacks to waters in the frig to extra toiletries to laundry supplies including coins to run the washer and dryer. Decorah is a hidden small town gem in Iowa - great beer at Toppling Goliath and Pulpit Rock, pizza at Luna Valley Farms and Mabe’s, ice cream at the Whippy Dip…a block to the south we found a public prairie garden which had great walking and prairie education.

Cozy and convenient
We were in town for a family reunion. The VRBO location was just minutes from each place we needed to be. We also had time to bike the Trout Run Trail and to bike to the breweries.

Gravel bike getaway to Decorah
Decorah is a hidden gem of a town, and every trip there is memorable. Our stay the Butterfly Park Retreat #6 was exactly was our group of 3 needed. The pull-out sofa was very comfortable, and we all slept well each night. Great location close to downtown Decorah, where we walked for dinner one night.

Just what we needed
The Butterfly Park Retreat was just what our family needed. It provides well appointed common and kitchen space in a quiet neighborhood near the river. The hosts were welcoming and divided the king bed into two twins so that my teen and tween didn't have to share--and gave mom and dad a space of their own too. It's clear the hosts take a lot of pride and care in this property. There a lot of careful details and provided items that are often overlooked in other properties. Will definitely stay here again!
