We had a great time at Miriam’s place! The view was stunning! The bathrooms and bedrooms were really nice! Miriam is a great host and we enjoyed staying with her! She was very accommodating and met our every need! Thanks.

We had an excellent time staying at One Orange Center. The home is situated high on a hill with stunning views of the valley. Hearing about the history of the home definitely added to the charm. Miriam was a wonderful host with many helpful suggestions on restaurants and local activities. Her communication was excellent and everything was outlined to us prior to arrival. She even made an absolutely delicious lemon strawberry cake for my birthday and truly went out of her way to ensure that we had an excellent stay. The purpose of our visit was to explore the caves in Maquoketa, which were just a short drive away. We will be back!

Beautiful view in addition to an amazing host! Breakfast, wine, coffee, dogs and quiet and beautiful view. This place is great if you want a quiet, relaxing stay with a friendly host who goes extra miles to make you feel comfortable and cared for. Also her dogs are the cutest! If you love dogs, they will be your best friend the whole stay. The property is also way more than what’s pictured. Great place to go exploring and be in nature. I recommend this place.

We stayed here so our daughter could do a college visit and so we could visit the Maquoketa Caves. Miriam was a nice host and her pop-overs were excellent. It is very quiet and a bit isolated as the town of St. Donatus is just over 100 people. However, it isn’t very far to many attractions so it works out nicely. The rooms were all clean and had very nice bathrooms.

Everything about the house is incredible, from the views to the host to the breakfast provided!
The house is within driving distance to anything you may need, 30ish minutes to galena, 15ish to Dubuque.
Miriam, Bodie, and Bella were gracious hosts and we enjoyed spending time learning about the history of the house and getting to know more about Miriam!
The rooms were absolutely beautiful and a soaking tub in each suite let’s everyone in your party relax after a day exploring the area. The views from the expansive deck are also breathtaking, so you really can’t go wrong with booking this house!
Miriam was also kind enough to put together a small charcuterie board and Prosecco toast for our anniversary weekend away and it was the perfect way to start off the weekend!
Do yourself a favor and book this house, you won’t regret it! Thank you, Mariam!
