Eagles Landing Winery

Most spectacular part of Eagle’s Landing is the hand-​built house using huge exposed beams fitted only with joints and pegs (no nails in the building). The great room is beautiful to look at (3 story ceiling with trusses especially) and the wall of windows faces East. You’re rignt on the bank of the Mississippi. On the other side of the house is the Canadian Pacific Railway!!! So, if this is a problem, don’t stay here. However, I enjoyed being treated to a by-​gone era when trains and their whistles blew by in the night. Other bonuses: Four-​course breakfast by a real chef, free bottle of wine, vist to the winery down the street owned by the B & B people, occasional eagles to be sighted on the river, and a reasonable price. Odd side note: We had to crawl through the freight train to get back to the B & B after we had supper at the Casino buffet (very good)!

Without a doubt one of my all-​time favorite wineries! We stop every single time we’re in town visiting my sister, and we always have an excellent experience!
Big Red used to be my go-​to wine, but this last time I tried the Blues Fest and loved it just as much! I prefer sweeter wines, and can find just as much of a mix that I would buy (and usually do) as my boyfriend whom drinks mostly dry red wines. Campfire Hootch is also a great one to try, as most of them are-​and they are always willing to explain types and differences, and make suggestions!
If you stop on a day that Cindy, one is the owners is working, then there’s no doubt that you’ll be stopping again next time! She’s undeniable service-​with-​a-​smile, and just a joy to speak to! Great job Cindy! We love you and Eagles Landing!

Hubby and I took my Grandmother to Eagles Landing Winery and had a lovely time sitting outside sipping wine.
The winery was very busy (14+ people) and only one person working. The owner (I assume) was not very polite. He did not take the time to explain the wines and what was in them. Had to ask several times for a tasting only to be ignored. Limited to 5 tasting and could not pay extra for more, nor could you buy wine by the glass. The winery had a ton of excellent wines. We did end up buying 4 bottles which were gone within a week. Too bad we live in Texas! They did have a great outside area but would have been nice to only have a glass of wine as we all liked different wines.
We will definitely be back the next time we are in Iowa, but only because the wine was good

We were camping at Pikes Peak State Park and decided to check out the local winery and am very glad we did. It is very cute and the woman who was serving us was very friendly and knowledgeable. After trying 10 different wines we ended up buying three bottles of Campfire Hootch. It is soooo yummy. I love wine and I drink alot of it so I should know. It happened to be the last one I tried and it was so good I actually got a little tear in my eye! Maybe I was just drunk by that point but either way its well worth the stop in to Eagles Landing Winery.

Quite a surprising find on the west bank of the Mississippi. We tried a number of wines: Summer Blush, made from the local Frontenac Gris, was very good, lovely amber color, hints of apricot, stone fruit, pineapple; Strawberry Fest, made from strawberry juice, tastes exactly as advertised.

Eagle’s Landing is part B&B, part local winery.
The location of the B&B is phenomenal. You are wedged between the scenic bluffs and the majestic Mississippi River. You are literally right on the river directly adjacent to the bridge connecting to Prairie Du Chien, WI. It’s quiet there are great views right out over the river.
The proprietors are a very kind older couple who know the area like the backs of their hands. They were exceptionally helpful in aiding us with local recommendations and ideas. Ms. Halvorson is also an exceptional cook and the breakfasts here are particularly of note. They do a great job of incorporating local ingredients and their products from their winery in to the first meal of the day. You will leave stuffed after each breakfast and enjoy a great conversation with the two charming owners.
There is not much privacy here. Our room was immediately adjacent to their living room where the owners and guests would congregate to watch baseball in the evenings. There is an separate cabin for families, however we were not booked there. We also had an odd issue with towels being removed from the cabinets in our bathroom after my wife retrieved an extra one beyond what was set out for us to dry her hair after bathing.
The winery is a short walk up the block from the B&B and is really neat. They have their own line of locally produced wines that are marketed under the «Marquette Maid» name, an homage to a local Native American woman who once lived in the location of the winery. We enjoyed sampling the wines and syrups and picked up several to take home.
This is great 1 – 2 punch combo for a weekend away in beautiful NE Iowa. We will be returning in the future.

I loved the winery here at Eagles Landing! They have a quota as to how many wines you can sip and taste and that goes up to five. I gloriously drank all 5 samples of my choosing. While everything we tried was excellent we decided to go with a Strawberry Wine which was sweet but overly so like some of the other sweet wines I tried in the North East Iowa area on my trip. The gentleman that ran the wine store was most helpful and very friendly. We also bought a Mr. Sippy wine which was also most excellent. This will be a wonderful place to go back to next time I come to the area to visit! Maybe we will do a bed and breakfast activity next time!
