Set on 40 acres of woods and meadow in Southwest Wisconsin this Amish-built cabin offers a secluded environment within a very natural and rugged setting. The property is located on a ridge in the Driftless Region which is a scenic area with rolling terrain, woods and hills, with valleys carved deep below the surface of the land, which can be enjoyed by people who like to get close to nature. Different from properties adjacent to houses of others, the cabin is a perfect place to experience the peace of the country life.
The big size of the lot gives the opportunity to get really out into the nature. Visitors might walk over a wide land that includes both the woods and the meadows, admire a beautiful landscape and its different stages of color throughout the seasons, or choose to stay outside without even going near the cabin. In addition, a porch and a courtyard are the elements of the cabin’s outdoor features that offer a pleasant spot in which to sit and watch nature around.
A fire ring is an ideal spot for the guests to spend evenings outdoors and for those who want to cook out as well, there is also a barbecue. The dogs are welcome at the cabin, which means that the guests who are coming with their pets get to enjoy the beautiful woods very easily and conveniently. The property lies near enough to the small neighboring towns like Viroqua, Gays Mills, and Readstown to be able to get access to groceries, shopping and other services required in daily life.
The cabin feels like stepping back into the past, a rustic setting with all the comforts. The main feature of the place is the wood which dominates the look of the inside as well as giving a warm and traditional atmosphere that the place deserves from the beautiful natural setting. After a long and exhausting outdoor trip, the main living area is designed to provide great comfort. With a woodburning stove to make the cabin cozy in colder weather one of the cabin’s classic features is retained even through a wood fire can be a nice way to spend some time in. Thanks to a large window and a skylight the main room, and the kitchen are bright and airy and filled with natural light that gives the inside atmosphere such a feeling of openness and freedom.
A living room is one of the rooms in a cabin that has the biggest variety of functions. In the living room you can sit and relax, read the book, or just hang out with fellow cabiners and chat around. Besides the wood-burning stove the fireplace becomes the most natural centerpiece of the room. The place is equipped with a TV set, a radio/stereo that can be turned on for listening to music or catching up with a programme and Wi-Fi internet that will allow to stream content if you bring with you an electronic device capable of doing that. Having both traditional elements of a cabin and modern conveniences, it can be both a quiet place to stay or a family space that is fun and interactive.
Those who come with the intention to cook and bring in their food will find the kitchen in the cabin most convenient. It has a range (gas or electric depends on the location), an oven, and refrigerator. There are also additional facilities in the form of a toaster, a coffee grinder as well as a set of dishes and cooking utensils. Being connected to and facing the living room the kitchen provides a good place to get ready for your meal, at the same time, it gives you a chance to get involved in or join different cabin activities taking place. An area adjacent to the kitchen set up for dining can serve multiple purposes such as meals time, coffee time in the morning, chats and etc.
The sleeping portion of the cabin consists of two bedrooms which together can accommodate a maximum of 5 people. They serve as a place to unwind and get some rest in between hiking or exploring the area. One of the special sleeping arrangements is the loft where a queen-size bed can be found. There is, however, the possibility to provide additional bedding which can cover the need for more sleeping places. This consists of an air mattress, a conversional sofa bed, and a pack-and-play if it is needed for infants. The inclusion of a portable highchair makes the cabin a family-friendly establishment.
It’s clear that the cabin’s bathroom is there to add to the living experience. It’s one of those little touches that make you feel at home even when you’re away from home. There’s also a nice touch of a second story which really helps with privacy especially if kids are in the mix or you’re the one who doesn’t appreciate the company of strangers.
In fact, it might not be obvious right away but that layout makes a difference if you’re staying there for one day or a couple of nights. The bathroom is really the heart of it all, the kind of thing you take for granted at home but in a cabin you really have to have it. It’s a very practical solution for a two-bedroom cabin that accommodates five guests at maximum occupancy. If the temperature rises a bit, the cabin doesn’t leave you out, it’s been equipped with a central unit to handle the room climate.
