The Fleetwood Bungalow with Dreamy Porch

Welcome to The Fleetwood Inn! A charming, cozy one-bedroom bungalow in the heart of Burlington, Iowa. Right between our bustling business district and our nostalgic downtown, this little house has vast character. My favorite feature is all the original built-ins and beams. You will love the Western American inspiration and vintage finds, modern touches throughout, and dreamy details in every corner. Just added a Saatva Organic mattress for extra comfort.
