It was very clean and outside areas were nice. The bed was too soft. I was able to get in my room but had trouble connecting with the owner to pay. Did not see him until I was ready to leave in the morning

Trickling waters is a beautiful, peaceful retreat nestled in the bluffs of the Mississippi River. The room was clean and well stocked. There is a fire pit and hot tub available for use. My only suggestion is that the room needs to be updated. The furniture and appliances are dated. However, we really enjoyed our stay and will return.
Beautiful sunset in

It’s a very nice place. It’s quiet and the grounds landscape beautifully. Randy, the host is very accommodating. Our only regret is that we only had time to spend one night there.
