About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Nature Lover's Paradise In The Driftless Area Of Southern Wisconsin, USA.

We are located on a hidden bluff at the end of a dead end road in the driftless area of Southern Wisconsin near the popular tourist destination of New Glarus, America's Little Switzerland in Green County Wisconsin.

The property is nestled in a stand of mature oak trees with rock cliffs, deer & turkeys grazing in the yard. It is a nature lovers dream!

The 2600 square foot 3.5 bath log home sits on 40 acres. The home features four spacious bedrooms with plush beds, a large surround deck in the tree tops, high speed internet & access to private walking trails that wind through the woods complete with limestone cliffs and pollinator prairies. The interior of the home is lined with pine boards that give off a pleasant aroma and add to the character adding to the cabin feel but the home is well appointed and has all the features you will likely need.

We are close to many communities like New Glarus, Dodgeville, Mineral Point, Mt Horeb where local festivals take place weekly throughout the spring, summer and fall. Take in a brewery tour or sample some fresh cheese at one of the many local cheese factories. Be sure to ask for fresh curds!

There is easy access to Yellowstone Lake State Park and Wildlife Areas with a host of other possible recreational activities including hiking, cycling, fishing, canoeing, boating. There is even hunting, in season and recreational shooting at a well maintained no cost range at Yellowstone Lake Wildlife Area.


**** VRBO rate software does not allow us to discriminate between children and adults as additional guests and will automatically generate an additional guest fee if the number of children are entered. We only charge an additional guest fee for adult guests. We do not charge for kids!

Please note the number of children that will be staying with us in your email to us so we are aware that you are bringing your children but do not list your children as guests to avoid the additional guest fee. We have contacted VRBO to hopefully resolve this issue. Thank you! ****
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a private yard.

Steve was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and did a great job showing us the property and the home. The location is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. The house was very clean and exceptionally well stocked with everything we could need. The beds were comfortable, the water stayed nice and hot during the cold nights, and the cozy cabin living room made it the perfect place to relax. We even found ourselves becoming bird watchers during our stay! Being able to step outside, go for a hike, and get some fresh air was a huge bonus. We truly loved our time here and would absolutely stay again.

This was an amazing stay, not only because the house was great but because of having such a wonderful host. There was a snow storm during our stay, he was very considerate and plowed the drive in the morning for us. We had a wedding to attend that day and he messaged us to let us know it was getting bad out and to head back. I truly believe if he had not done that we would have not made it back to the house. They also offered for us to stay one more day at no cost if we needed to wait out the storm. What a wonderful host and overall person. I will be back for sure. I would give it 10 stars if I could.

If you are looking for solitude, this is the place. It is well furnished and appointed, all you need to bring is food. If you do not wish to cook, there are several great restaurants within easy driving distance. If you get up early in the morning, you will be treated with the sounds of several owls calling from the woods. A truly great place to unwind, relax and enjoy some quiet time with your family.

The property is stunning! Hiking trails right off the front door that are nicely maintained. The house is clean and like home away from home, everything you could need is provided. The owner lives on the property, far enough away you dont even know they are there, but close enough to help if needed. Pets are welcome, just beware there are no fenced areas and wild animals abound. There is even a paddock for horses, it would fit four horses comfortably and is fully grassed with a water trough, however, I would bring electrical fencing to keep the horses off the fencing there. The other nice thing is the property is tucked away from main roads and has only a private drive entrance.

The lodge is a wonderful place that is perfect in every way. Lots of room,yet still cozy enough to spend time with family and friends. It is great that there is a window in the kitchen that allows you to interact with those sitting in the family room who are watching tv or just hanging out. A wonderfully large deck with grill and blackstone available is also there. Having a firepit located on the property was also a wonderful feature that we enjoyed. Steve is a great host who is very prompt at responding and very easy to work with. This is our second visit and probably wont be the last!

This property was a very fun stay for our family with the kiddos! Great location for a day trip to Madison and also visited New Glarus. The kids had fun in the loft and everyone loved having their own spaces. It was great having access to a grill and we enjoyed sitting outside on the wrap around deck for a very peaceful evening. Definitely recommend to anyone wanting a quiet place to stay that’s within driving distance to some great spots. Also was very well equipped for infants and young children!

Some of our favorite parts of the cabin were cooking family meals in the well equipped kitchen, enjoying time on the wrap around porch in the mornings and evenings as well as walks on the marked trails through the property. This is somewhere we would definitely come back to. Thanks Steve!

Tucked-away perfection! Quiet, peaceful, and the fire pit made for the dreamiest bonfire nights. Pro tip: the basement is sweater weather, the loft is a mini sauna, and the main floor is juuust right—so pack for all seasons. The host? Absolute gem. You can tell he’s all about making your stay amazing.
