The property is across the road from the best wild trout stream in western Wisconsin. . Nestled is a peaceful valley close to designated bike trails and miles of county roads perfect for biking. Amenities include one queen bed, 1 fold out very comfortable sofa bed, air conditioning, private deck, private fire pit & much more.

Nice little country spot
Well laid out small unit with really nice garden bbq area.
A very quaint and beautiful space! I imagined it to be like a little cottage in Italy; down the street from the vineyard. New, quality, well decorated place. The flower gardens were so beautiful. It was like a little gem in the middle of rolling, green hills. Loved every bit of this charming space!

Great location for visiting Vino in the Valley
The cottage was beautiful and a perfect location for our visit to Vino in the Valley. Kay greeted us upon arrival and gave us the tour. The location was great for a walk and nearby bike trails that we did prior to arrival. Everything was great, bed was very comfy and extra phone chargers were a bonus, as my husband forgot his. Thanks for your warm hospitality! highly recommend.
A lovely home away from home in peaceful surroundings off the beaten path.
Beautiful flower gardens surrounding the property.
Very friendly hosts made our stay even more enjoyable.
Close to vineyards and wine tasting too.

Weekend Getaway
It was such a great experience! The lodging itself is so cute and cozy! Kay was awesome and gave us tours and even helped us build a fire that night. Gave us info on the surrounding area. And honestly it was one of the most beautiful areas to stay in. All in all will definitely be going back again! Highly recommended!
