There are 2 dedicated parking spots and an additional disabled parking spot. Roadside and parking lots are options for additional cars, trailers, etc. Be sure to read the history of this house in the living room.

This is a historic home built in 1910 and we fully renovated it in 2019. Due to the older construction, the floors are thin and it is expected that you can hear people walking in the upstairs unit, or washer-dryer running. This is similar to apartment complexes and if you believe that this may be an issue for you, you might want to pack earplugs or please consider booking our upstairs unit or the whole home.

The home is stocked with helpful amenities and little luxuries and is the perfect place to call home for a weekend, or more extended stay.

The home is bright and sunny with plenty windows that bring the outdoors in and offer views of the surrounding with beautiful sunsets. Make yourself at home on the private wrap around deck with a glass of wine or take a few steps to many of the restaurants and shops in Newbo. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the fully equipped kitchen or start your day with a variety of Keurig coffee and tea selection offered. A variety of games and books are available to enjoy or cozy up at night in front of the two large smart TVs (one in living room and another in one of the bedrooms) and stream your favorite movies with complimentary WI-FI via fiber optic internet.

Enjoy a great night's sleep in queen size beds so decadently comfortable that you will not want to leave. Crisp linens, luxe pillows and echo dots for music, alarm, and white noise await you. Plush Turkish cotton bath linens and toiletries are provided. Feel completely secured while you sleep or step away from the house with ring security system and automated locks.

This is also a great place to stay while on work travel and for traveling nurses. You will enjoy laptop friendly areas including dedicated work table, 100MBPS fiber optic internet service (wifi only), USB chargers and Alexa Dot for music.
Bikes/Scooters: There are 3 Electric Bike and Scooter Rideshare stations within 5 min walking distance from the house. Download the Veoshare App to rent these

Walking: Most of the restaurants, events, bars and attractions are within walking distance.

Bus: The local bus stop is right outside the house which is great way to get to hospitals and other interest areas in the city.

Uber/Lyft is also available.

We enjoyed our stay in the heart of the New Bohemia district and Czech Village across the river. It was with walking distance of the NewBo City Market and other local eating and bars. Cute place to stay that is decorated nicely. We would stay again.

Beautiful!
We loved our stay! It was comfy and cozy! The house has a beautiful charm with all the original woodwork! So impressive after the flood of 2008! The house is steps away from food, drink and downtown which is convenient but a cozy night in curled up with my favorite book was perfect too! Thank you!!

Charming and Convenient Stay in the Heart of NewBo.
This wonderful location is just a stone's throw away from the bustling activity of NewBo. Our second stay at this property was just as delightful as the first. Previously, we stayed in the upstairs unit, and this time we enjoyed the equally charming ground floor unit. I highly suggest staying here.

Week getaway
This place was perfect for a nice little week away from work and family. Me and my partner fell in love with the place and the cute surrounding attractions and cafes. Crosby’s (retina rant right around the corner) is a must try and the Cedar Rapids Art Museum was amazing. Loved every minute of this trip and the cozy environment the house gave

Not a wheelchair accessible unit
This unit has an accessible parking spot, and it has a ramp to a single floor unit. The doorways to rooms are wide. However, those are the only features that are useful to a wheelchair user. In the bathroom, the toilet is pushed into the corner and is accessed thru a narrow 21 inch passage between a vanity and shower. My husband is wheelchair user and has a small narrow chair, but could not access the toilet for our entire stay. He had to use the bathrooms in the businesses in the neighborhood, which had limited hours. The shower is not accessible with a narrow access and glass doors. The bathroom is large and could have been built out with a more sensible and truly accessible layout. I emailed the owners when we arrived and did not get a reply. After our stay, I called the owner and discussed that this unit should not be advertised as "wheelchair accessible." He listened and agreed and noted that he would change the VRBO listing and his private business listing to reflect that is it not "wheelchair accessible" or "ADA friendly". That has not happened.

1 Night Stay
We loved our overnight stay! Cedar Rapids was the halfway point for us on our drive from Louisville, KY to Evansville, MN. We especially loved that there was a nice park close by (2 minute walk) to walk our dog and perfect places close by to go for our morning coffee and breakfast sandwiches. We also loved the Pacman game! The home was very clean and the beds and bedding were very nice and comfortable! Thanks for the bottle of wine too. We will definitely be back on future trips from KY to MN for our overnight rest stop.

Comfy, clean and great location!
This was my first Vrbo booking, but it won’t be my last! This property was clean, spacious and very comfortable. The shower was perfect for tall people! The huge wrap-a-round porch with porch swing was great for late night chats and early morning reflections. The beds were very comfortable. The location was walking distance to everything in NewBo, supper downtown and breakfast in Czech Village!

Great Property Close to Everything and Attentive Hosts
This house was perfect for our short weekend getaway. It is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We particularly enjoyed the Roku TV and the comfy beds. The house has two units and we rented the bottom one. If hearing people walking upstairs bothers you, rent the upper unit. It was tolerable, but noticeable, as was the train nearby early in the morning. The proximity to NewBo Market was great and there are wonderful restaurants within either walking distance or a short drive. We’ll definitely be back the next time we visit Cedar Rapids.

We were very pleased with this experience. The property is very much as described. It was clean and well maintained and offered character and amenities that you cannot get in a comparably priced hotel room. The location is ideal, with a number of restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. We will likely be booking a stay in the future.

Perfect location! Clean and comfortable!
We were in town for a family wedding! This was a perfect place to explore, unwind, and enjoy! We appreciated the dishes and games that were available. It’s really a get walking distance from a bunch of neat restaurants, shops, breweries, etc. The place had an easy check in and was very clean and comfortable! The app they use to manage the property is also helpful. Only complaint is the VRBO check in time was different than the app and we weren’t able to get in at 11am like we had thought (and was was listed on VRBO). I would recommend staying here!
