With over 60 miles of paved bike trails, world class trout fishing, tubing and kayaking... we know you'll love your stay in the beautiful Driftless region.
The space
The main level has a bright, open floor plan with modern cook's kitchen, pantry, island seating and dining room table as well as a powder room in the entry hallway.
