About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Family friendly in the peaceful heart of town

Enjoy a fully renovated entire home rental in walking distance to one of the town's two main lakes, with paved paths for walking and biking. The home has 100 year old original wood floors, an electric fireplace, and is bursting with character - a visual delight. Enjoy relaxing on the porch swing or seasonally picking and eating various fruits from the yard. Located in a quiet neighborhood, yet convenient to everything in town. You can even walk to - pick up pizza, a WSU baseball game, or the town's outdoor bandshell.

Cute house for a family or friends getaway.
Susan, the owner, was wonderful to work with. The house was a perfect place for us to relax for a couple of days. Even though we found the kitchen to be our favorite place to be together, there are many rooms to gather.

Wonderful!
Our stay at the Clover Cottage was absolutely delightful. The home is welcoming and well stocked for cooking at “home”. It caters to families and was thoughtfully stocked for those with young children. The location is perfect with access to the lakes. We will make this a routine stay on our trips to Winona, MN.

Close to downtown and Wisconsin
The host Susan was very nice and polite. It was very close to Wisconsin boarder plus downtown. She even wrote out on a board what to do or to eat. Nice place to stay.

Perfectly charming!
This adorable house by the lake was full of charm and convenience. Everything needed for the week was on hand and questions were answered by the host/owner promptly. Everything was comfy and cozy and we would definitely book another trip in the future!

Cute house, close to the lake and the University.
We were in town for College graduation and moving our daughter home. The house was very clean and decorated very nice.The kitchen was great and had everything we needed for cooking our meals. We were just a couple minute walk from the lakes which was great and also within walking distance of Winona state university campus.

Pickleball Weekend
Cozy, well kept home! In town with another couple for a pickleball tournament and it was perfect for us. So much better than staying at a motel! Everything we needed was there and all went very smooth. Beds were comfortable (that's a big deal for us), water was hot and we enjoyed visiting and watching a little TV in the cozy living room. We would stay here again. Maybe next year for the same tournament!!

Wonderful Weekend
This home was perfect for our weekend visit to Winona. Our group of 4 women had plenty of room to relax, enjoy meals, and sleep in the house! It is central to all locations in the city and a block from the walking path at the lake. Susan responded quickly to all questions and even had the trundle set up as the fourth bed before we arrived. I have never seen a rental as clean as this one!!

Delightful Cottage in Winona!
The Clover Cottage is an adorable abode! I cannot say enough nice things about how cozy and comfortable we were. I was visiting my son and didn't want to be in a hotel setting. Luckily, I found this listing on VRBO. It was nothing short of perfect! We each had plenty of room to spread out. The kitchen is a dream and so fun to cook in! The host has done a wonderful job of creating a welcoming home away from home. I plan to reserve with them again when I'm in Winona.

Trinona Weekend
This is an excellent property! I actually selected this one because it has a king tempur-pedic bed in the bedroom upstairs. We were in Winona for the triathlon and I wanted to make sure I slept like I was at home. I sure did! I think that bed is more comfortable than my own. The location is excellent and the accommodations are so comfortable. Thanks so much - we will be back next year.

A nice, quiet space
I had a relaxing stay at the house. It was surprisingly non-creaky for an older home. Occasionally the house would rattle due to a passing train, but the trains themselves weren't loud. Just something to be aware of. The neighborhood was very quiet, and I slept great.

Wonderful place for a Thanksgiving Reunion
We loved staying at the cottage. it was charming and comfortable, and perfectly located for us and our guests. We cooked a Thanksgiving meal for 12 people and the kitchen was great for this - large oven with smooth cooktop was easy to clean, large fridge, plenty of cleaning supplies, empty cabinets with space for our own supplies plus a well-stocked kitchen with plenty of large mixing bowls, measuring cups and spoons, I could go on. Our 90+ aunt with a walker was very comfortable - 2 first floor bathrooms were helpful. We're talking about coming back next year. Thank you, Susan!

Close to Lake
We loved the character of this house - antique farm blended with modern! Beds were very comfortable, neighborhood was quiet and the easy walk to the Lake was much appreciated. The one unexpected occurrence was noticeable shaking whenever a train passed by (I guess this is part of the charm). This was most evident in the upstairs master bedroom, in the early morning. Nevertheless, we had a great stay and highly recommend this house in the heart of Winona.
