The EarthHouse ~ Wall-to-wall unique style, Luxury Linens and Amazing Comfort
The EarthHouse is wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling style. We've put our hearts into providing a distinctive space filled with luxury linens and cozy throws, creating the essence of relaxation and charm. The bedroom mattress, lounge room couch and arm chairs are amazingly comfortable. It is delightfully quiet and sure to be memorable. We're sure you're going to love this unique and romantic escape.
The EarthHouse was originally just an earth home in the 1940's where a family of four called home. In 1992, the current dwelling was built above the earth home were we live with our dog. You may occasionally hear faint voices and the sound of dog paws during your stay. Please know we are most courteous in providing a quiet space during your time at The EarthHouse. We are a smoke free home and ask you to please refrain while staying with us. You will have the entire EarthHouse to yourself with private entrance once inside the front door of the house. There is just 1 step down into the EarthHouse. The kitchenette has a full refrigerator/freezer, microwave, toaster, coffee with coffee maker, and counter oven with rotisserie, bake, convection, and broil settings. I have some nice single serving snacks and treats for when you arrive. The open kitchen area meets up with the bathroom with full shower and bathtub, or enter the charming lounge living room and romantic bedroom with sound machine and darkened window coverings. You may exit the bedroom through the (secret) closet door which meets up with the hallway to the bathroom and kitchen area. As an EarthHouse it’s nicely cool throughout the warm weather months and super cozy warm in the winter months. It’s great. We think you will really enjoy yourselves at the EarthHouse.
In all seasons but winter, please make use of the outdoor furniture at the entrance! We have a beautifully landscaped property to enjoy. At this time, no access to the backyard.
We are located within walking distance from Downtown Main Street in Mount Horeb. During the 1980s, as part of an effort to continue celebrating their Norwegian and Norwegian-American heritage, Mount Horeb transformed itself into the "Troll Capital of the World." The Chamber of Commerce calls the main street the "Trollway." Art carved trolls line the downtown area, often pointing to places to shop and eat.
Mount Horeb, Wisconsin is part of the Driftless Area, a topographical and cultural region in southwestern Wisconsin. Here we acknowledge and celebrate the inherent sovereignty of the Ho-Chunk Nation and the 11 Indigenous First Nations within what is now referred to as the State of Wisconsin . The EarthHouse is on the sacred ancestral land and waters of the Ho-Chunk peoples of past, present, and future.
We are really happy to share this wonderful space! We may see you and welcome you in person or if you prefer no contact, we appreciate your wishes. If you need to get in touch with us during your stay, please message me through your VRBO reservation. We prefer not coming up the stairs to our home unless in the case of an emergency. Please let us know through your reservation if we can be of any assistance to you. Thanks much!

Unique, cozy getaway!
I had the pleasure of spending a short weekend at The Earthhouse BnB in Mt. Horeb, and it was absolutely wonderful! The property is tucked away in a serene, peaceful location that provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The BnB itself is charming and cozy, with unique touches that made it feel like a true home away from home.

The EarthHouse is a Gem!
I had a wonderful stay at the EarthHouse. The accommodations are perfect, from the ease of check-in, the highly communicative and accommodating host, to the fun art deco/artistic flare to the warmth of the place itself with a small kitchenette and its amenities to the comfortable den and bedroom. The drive is a quick 20-25 minutes to Madison during off-peak hours and a quaint way to experience this locale of Wisconsin. Highly recommend!

Quiet Earth Home
We were here for 2 wks. The home was only 1 1/2 blocks from the welcome to Mt Horeb center. Walkable distance to cafes &bar restaurants. The 1 bedroom earth home was very intriguing. Decorated very well with supply of everything from shampoo/cream rinse to cleaning supplies. The hosts Pam & Graham are very pleasant & quick to answering messages. We are not great with tech, so Graham came down to help us with the tv. There were instruction notes in each room to help find outlets light switches. A basket of Mt Horeb &area information was on the table. The wifi worked great.

UW-Madison Graduation Weekend
Our family enjoyed a delightful weekend stay at the EarthHouse for the graduation of our oldest son from UW. Pam wished us well from the onset & was extremely helpful when we added our middle son to our stay. At the time of booking, we were unaware that he would be able to join us for the graduation festivities. However, Pam accommodated our changing needs after arrival without creating any anxiety for us on our exciting weekend. We enjoyed a fantastic dinner in Mt Horeb Friday evening at Bistro 101 & loved our proximity to Madison without the headache of traffic & service issues over UW graduation weekend. It was perfect! Thank you again!

Awesome Host and Wonderful Stay...
The eclectic decor made us want to stay longer. The host thought of everything, from small bathroom amenities to games and goodies. Staying here puts you about 20 minutes from Madison and Mount Horeb is a very nice town with plenty of shops to spend your time in. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Thank you, Pamela.
