River Song Cottage ~ quiet retreatn2 bedroom - Q, T/F bunk + T trundle | House in Saint Croix Falls

River Song Cottage is nestled along the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, near downtown St. Croix Falls. You will find 2 bedrooms (1: queen bed, 2: twin over full bunk + twin trundle), 1 bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, open dining/ living room area, and a large deck and backyard that cozies up to the wooded banks of the St. Croix River. The wooded lot between our yard and the river belongs to the National Park Service. Public trails can be accessed through the visitor center next door.
The Property
Our main bedroom, "The Overlook" has a queen size canopy bed. Across the hall in our second bedroom "The Chickadee Nest" there is a twin over full bunkbed, with an additional twin size trundle bed available below.
The full bathroom has a tub/shower, pedestal sink, linens and hair dryer.
In the kitchen you will find a full size refrigerator, stove/oven and dishwasher, as well as a microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and electric kettle.
The living and dining rooms share an open space, with a large table, chairs, couch, loveseat, electric fireplace and a smart tv. We utilize a Roku guest system, which allows guests to safely access their own streaming services, as well as free Roku channels. We enjoy collecting interesting books, games and puzzles for guests to enjoy during their stay!
A guest favorite at River Song Cottage is our spacious deck, which overlooks the St. Croix River and where we recently installed a 4-person, natural cedar Nordic Hot Tub. The deck leads to our large backyard, where guests are invited to build a fire in the fire ring (firewood provided) or relax in the hammock.
*Please note, while the view from our backyard is gorgeous in every season, the river is only visible seasonally, as the foliage along the wooded banks is lush enough to fully obstruct views of the river from approximately May through September.
Guest Access
Guest access includes the entire first floor, deck, front and back yards. The basement level is currently undergoing renovation for an eventual expansion of River Song Cottage and is closed to guest access at this time.
