Testimonials from some of our customers and guests:

We have rented from KPS many times, and our experience has been nothing short of excellent. Eric and the team is responsive, courteous and takes great pride in creating lasting memories for their guests. Over the years, our family has witnessed firsthand how hard the KPS team has worked to build a family business that sets the gold standard, and they have been unwavering in their commitment to their guests.

You can’t beat the location of each of these properties – all within easy reach of the amazing Driftless region and Mississippi River. While we have a few favorites that we return to time and time again, we also enjoy checking out any new additions. As proud return customers with a high level of trust in KPS, we know we are guaranteed to have an outstanding experience no matter which cabin or vacation home we choose.

We wholeheartedly recommend KPS, and look forward to creating future memories in these beautiful vacation homes for many years to come!

The cabin is an absolute gem and perfect for any getaway. The peace and tranquillity of the location was only made better by the wonderful hot tub. If you’re looking for a relaxing time, look no further!

What an absolute peace of heaven. So wonderfully presented to make you feel at home right away and extremely clean! Ferryville and the surrounding towns are unbelievably quaint and welcoming. One of our best trips and we definitely will be back in the years to come. THANK YOU!

We needed a pandemic-friendly change of scenery and the cabin fit the bill perfectly. We didn’t see another soul while we were there (save for a bald eagle soaring overhead) and had such a lovely, relaxing time. We cooked, watched movies, snowshoed on the property, and soaked in the hot tub. We’re already dreaming about coming back in the summer!

This is one of the most peaceful properties we have ever visited. The view through the valley to the river below was even better than in the pictures. We spent quite a bit of time outside listening to the birds, especially the woodpeckers. On one night, the only sound we heard was the hoot of a distant owl. Occasionally, you do hear the train by the river, but it is just a brief reminder that life goes on while you relax in such a peaceful setting.

The Cabin on Hidden Creek is simply picturesque. The grounds are stunning, it’s very remote and private. Everything was spotless when we arrived and we instantly felt at home. It was the perfect place to read some books, play board games, prepare delicious meals, stargaze from the hot tub, and explore the lush wilderness. Absolutely beautiful, we can’t wait to go back!

Really enjoyed our stay here in the beautiful hills of the Driftless. The cabin was perfect for our group, well appointed and clean. Loved the hot tub! The views from the deck were beautiful, and there were so many unusual birds to watch and listen to. It really felt like a mini vacation. We’ll be back.

My wife and I have had great professional interactions with Eric and the folks at Knutson property services over the past several years in many occasions. He’s very responsive and helpful. I find him very easy to work with.

We highly recommend Knutson Property Services for your snow plowing needs! They always arrive when they say they are coming! We also use them for yard cleanup work and other times when heavy equipment is needed! Eric and his staff are a joy to work with. We have also rented several cabins they manage when we have out of town guests. The cabins are beautiful and always clean!

Eric and the Knutson team are outstanding to work with. We have used them to maintain two different properties since 2010. From lawn mowing, trimming brush, to snow plowing, they have done excellent work. They have went above and beyond each time we called in additional projects or requests. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for any property related service needs.

Knutson Property Services has taken care of the lawn care and snow removal at our cabin for over three years. Eric and the team have always provided great service at a reasonable price. They are always willing to do the extra services to keep the cabin maintained and looking great. It is so nice not having to worry about anything when we are away from our cabin.

Clean, cozy cabins that are very well maintained & managed & then some! Knuston Property Services provide top notch customer service and truly care about your needs & it shows! I’m a Real Estate Agent in the area & have recommended their services to many of my satisfied customers over the years. I’ve personally hired them for my own needs as well & have never been disappointed! Thank you so much for all the extras that you do in taking care of people; it really does put you top-notch!

I would highly recommend KPS. Our stay at The Pines was everything we had hoped for and more! The cabin was VERY clean and spacious, directions for everything were very clear, and communication was excellent. The hot tub with a view was the best! We will definitely be returning to check out their other properties in the future!

Review #24091536 “Secluded Cabin Just Minutes From The Mississippi River!! ”
Nice Isolated Getaway Spot

My brothers and our spouses have a yearly reunion in different locations. We thought this looked like a good spot to explore the Mississippi shoreline and the Driftless area of Wisconsin/Iowa.
The place was in a very pretty spot on a bluff near the Mississippi, though we could not actually see the river because of the trees. The home is roomy, well stocked, extremely clean and well maintained. One minor quibble would be that there were too many listed rules, some of which which would be common sense (“no Silly String”). Never the less, we would stay again and would not hesitate to recommend the location to others.
If you have not explored this unique area of the upper Midwest, you are missing some wonderful scenery!

My little pooch & I stayed at Walnut Creek Cabin for several weeks June 2018. The location of this cabin is very private & you will see an abundance of wildlife. If you want a beautiful setting and a cabin that is cute as a bug, then this is the one for you. I cannot say enough good things about Eric, the property manager. He was the most accommodating, friendly & just down right nice guy I’ve ever dealt with in renting vacation properties. 5 stars for Eric & the cabin ain’t bad either.

Great place to stay!

We had a wonderful vacation at the cabin. Plenty of room for the pups to run around, outside and inside, and lots of space for the humans too 🙂 Even though it was hot, enjoyed the Hot tub most nights, great view of the stars. We greatly appreciated that the lawn had been freshly mowed before we arrived, great for us & the dogs. Beautiful location with privacy, but quick to get into town for food. De Soto is a nice small town that is centrally located between La Crosse and Prairie Du Chien, and with Lansing nearby for groceries & addtl restaurants. Highlights of our trip included renting a boat from S&S in Lansing and going on on the Mississippi, tracking down all of the antique, round barns in Vernon county, and a wonderful meal from Jones Black Angus in Prairie Du Chien. Also had fun shopping in Viroqua & La Crosse. Lastly, if you stay– you have to go to the Great River Roadhouse (just north in De Soto on 35) and order pizza. They are huge and yummy!

Review #23109237 “ a Quiet, Secluded Wisconsin Rental Cabin”
Amazing cabin nestled in the rolling hills

This cabin was awesome! Clean, roomy, comfy beds (I slept better here than at home, lol ) had all the utensils and dinnerware we needed. We spent our nights in the hot tub and enjoying the gorgeous views from the wrap around deck. We ventured across the river to Lansing, IA for groceries and breakfast. And also to Desoto, WI a couple miles north of the cabin for a yummy dinner at the Bright Spot. It was an excellent vacation and we couldn’t have been more pleased. We will definitely be back in the future.

Review #22974881 “Secluded Rustic + Modern Log Cabin with hot tub by Stream, luxury getaway”
Beautiful cabin in the woods!

The property was amazing, no detail
Was missed from the newly remodeled kitchen down to the amazingly soft blankets. The kids loved the tree swing, the creek that ran through the property, chasing fireflies around the campfire & relaxing in the hot tub in the wonderful screened in porch. My husband & I loved the rocking chairs on the front porch, the grill & fully equipped kitchen & it even had a laundry machine which worked well since this was the second leg of our week in Wisconsin.

Upscale Woodsy Retreat

Tastefully decorated cabin in the woods!!! Very modern rustic feel, I literally took pictures of the entire place to use when we build our home! Very secluded with a lovely creek and open lawn with fire pit…couldn’t have been happier with the place and the owners were fabulous!

Peaceful Retreat in the Woods

This cabin was perfectly sized and clean. The kitchen was well stocked, and we cooked two dinners while there. Hot tub was a nice option for evenings. It is tucked quietly in the woods, with just enough houses nearby to provide comfort if there were an issue while there. We saw lots of wildlife, with turkeys roaming the property both mornings of our weekend. Would definitely recommend to others looking for a relaxing retreat.

Super private cute house with spectacular views and amazing stars on clear nights

We had a great girls’ weekend at Murph’s Hideaway! The hot tub was spectacular, and the views both during the day and at night with the star show were amazing. Nice comfy beds, clean kitchen. No traffic whatsoever, cute towns nearby. We had a great time! Thank you! 🙂

Exactly as advertised

Taking the river roads down from Minneapolis was one of the best parts. The curves and topography is beautiful!
The cabin is exactly as you hope it would be. It is located way up high on a hill, and you can see the river valley not far off from the deck. The hot tub was awesome and when I had a question about its operation Eric picked up his phone immediately.
We had a blast and will be back.

Rented the Rustic Retreat. Amazing views and absolute privacy. Great place to reconnect. Side note, the hot tub was 104 when we got in and 104 when we got out. In 18° with wind that’s saying something! Upstairs reading room is a great place to be. The bed wasn’t an El cheapo hotel bed either. Spent 4 days and my back never hurt! All around a perfect long weekend. Thank you!

Just what we wanted in a get away spot!

As for recommending the Pines to others looking for a secluded, idyllic type of a get away spot, we’d do so without hesitation. We’d be hard pressed to decide what it is specifically about the Pines that’s our favorite: Gorgeous both inside and out. Just a few of the things we loved: it’s very clean and well maintained, the HUGE and airy floor plan, beautiful scenic views from most of its rooms, a giant kitchen that’s loaded with (well stocked) cabinets, counter space, the large wrap around deck where sits the jacuzzi with a view, the TONS of mature and varied trees that surround it, and other than a coyote or four howling occasionally, or the birds chirping, the quietness surrounding the entire area it sits in is a welcomed “sound” as well.

A dream vacation location to escape the hectic world..

The property was clean, well prepared, and in a beautiful, quiet setting. This three-level cabin felt like home in no time; from working kitchen to washer dryer, the cabin had absolutely everything we needed to make our stay convenient, comfortable, and enjoyable. And, despite its secluded location, we still were not far at all from trips to retrieve basic amenities. My only regret is not staying there longer!

We enjoyed our 2-day get-a-way to Murph’s Hideaway. We used the hot tub every day and the kids enjoyed the loft area. We took a tour of Blackhawk Park and then went up to Lacrosse for lunch and roller skating. A great place if you are looking for a quiet place to relax

Review #21572098 “ a Quiet, Secluded Wisconsin Rental Cabin”
Relaxing yet had enough to do….

Thank you for a great, relaxing, but short spring break. The place was big enough that the kids, 14 and 17 year old boys, had their own space. The adults also had their own space making it very relaxing. WIFI worked great all weekend. The house had everything we needed and more. Very secluded, but not overly far from anything you’d need. We had a great time. The only downfall was that we had to come home after three short night’s. We would definitely do this again….
