Trickling Waters Retreat

We stayed in the King Suite room (Pine Lodge) which was beautifully decorated like a fishing cabin. Bed was very comfortable. It is located in a quite neighborhood and the property is wonderfully decorated with flowers and hanging lights. Unfortunately it rained the evenings we stayed so we could not take advantage of the nice fire pit area. Others had commented on the trains but with the air conditioner and ceiling fan going at night, we did not hear them, so do not let that scare you off. I would totally stay here again if we get back to the area. Randy was very helpful in suggesting his favorite options for restaurant's and bars and great places to visit.

There are several stairs to get to the rooms, so if you have any issues with stairs, this is probably not the location for you. But if a few stairs do not bother you, this place is a great place to stay.

Quiet spot where you could watch deer, hummingbirds and even feed the koi in the pond. The fire pit was great, too. Super clean and cozy. Very impressed with the drip irrigation set up on all their hanging baskets of happy flowers.

My only wee suggestion is it would be nice if there was a small table and two chairs on the deck or inside. Plenty of tables and chairs by the fire pit and upper deck, so not a big deal.

Many thoughtful features such as outlets with USB ports, throws on the comfy chairs, and a microwave and refrigerator. Very quiet.

This is not about the property but about where it is located. We stayed on a Monday and Tuesday in October. Much to our surprise, there were no restaurants open nearby for breakfast or dinner. We had to go into Prairie du Chien and search for an open restaurant.

The location was wonderful. Located on a street with no exit so absolutely no traffic. The room we stayed in (Evening Veranda) was perfect. Very clean. Had a kitchen that worked perfectly for our stay of 4 nights. Host was great! We spent two evenings in the fire pit area. Very relaxing. Everything about the stay was excellent.

My husband and I are walkers. We could go out the front door and walk for miles when we wanted to. Very quiet and natural environment. Loved it!

We were there during the week and I believe the only one's staying there. If the retreat was completely booked, parking might have been tighter.

We were just looking for a bed for the night en route to Chicago but chanced upon this little gem. At the end of an unremarkable street in Marquette, Randy has built a little paradise. Exquisitely decorated rustic rooms with BBQ pit. Beautiful fishpond. Host of bird life. And a deer and her fawn grazed peaceably just 50 yards from our window. And strong WiFi. Visit fascinating Prairie du Chien just 5 minutes across the Mississipi and into Wisconsin. Take a gentle hike around Effigy Mounds National Park.

All good.

This place is as top notch as you can get. The atmosphere, quality of each room, and Randy being a wonderful host, always exceeds expectations. I chose this location as a last minute getaway, and there happened to be a suite available. You won’t be disappointed if you try this place out, whether you are a solo traveler, or with your significant other.

What a diamond in the rough! Had the entire "mother-in-law" house with huge bed, full kitchen, big screen TV, full sized fridge w ice ready, hot tub and garden on property is very quaint and relaxing. Staff extra friendly and left a nice note. Safe and secure setting for a wonderful stay.

Might not be for the disabled as stairs must be navigated.

it wAs clean and the landscaping was beautiful. the hosts were friendly and fun. we were thrilled to find so many usb ports- we use a lot of electronics. AND the bed was a king size-the first one we had on our 9 day trip! loved the Up North and fishing decor. I wish we had booked more days there!!

That we only had one night there 😢

Loved the wooden walls ( just like our log home!), great water pressure and hot water! Loved the open space of the room and parking was easy. Great for our one night get away.

The train horns can be loud, but they can be heard for miles……..
