Bettys House was lovely! Welcoming and comfortable. Spotlessly clean. We had a wonderful visit. Beautiful views of surrounding country side and farm. A perfect place to relax!
Beautiful setting, immaculately clean, everything you could possibly want ! A real find for a great place to stay in the country! We went on walks, local restaurants, played cards, and caught up with each others lives!
Loved our stay at Betty’s House!! House was exceptionally clean and inviting inside and out. Great communication with host. Hoping to stay longer next time and tour the Dairy Farm.
Matthew was a long term guest who treated Betty’s House like his own. He left it in better shape than a few guests who stayed a 1 or 2 days! We were happy to know he enjoyed the house and our valley and wish him well.
We thoroughly enjoyed the location of this house, nestled in the hills of the driftless, but close enough to the river for hikes and scenic drives. The pizza farm nearby was a highlight. The house is super comfortable and clean. Although we did hear some fireworks noise the evening of the fourth of July, it was overall a peaceful and quiet location.

Tidy and neat as a pin with everything we could possibly need!
With a very picturesque location tucked into the rolling countryside valleys, Betty's House was in a beautiful location! We were able to easily check off everything on our must see list in Buffalo County. The evenings were peaceful listening to the Waumandee Creek and muffled cows mooing. John and Netta went above and beyond good hosting by looking for our naughty Husky! Many thanks and we'd love to stay again.

Thanks for coming to Betty's House. Timber must have decided to tour the area before heading home. I am glad he knew how to get back to you without an incident.
It was such a cute little farm house in the middle of dairy farms. We enjoyed the solitude and hominess of the property. Netti stopped in to check up on the house and we enjoyed meeting her, such a sweet lady. The house was very well organized and had everything we needed for cooking meals. I personally loved the heat lamp in the master bathroom. It was truly a relaxing time and allowed us to unwind and reset ourselves. We are big into kayaking and only had to drive around 20 mins to get to a kayak launch in merrick state park. Fountain city is one of my favorite little towns and was only about a 30 min drive. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be staying again in the future.

Betty’s Farm
Quiet, peaceful, beautiful scenery
We liked the little personal touches like chocolates on the pillows and scented soaps and shampoos.
Quiet, peaceful, fabulous view of rolling hills and farms
Betty’s house was exactly like my home, you wanted for nothing, all the special touches that you do not see anywhere else but in a home filled with love. The rolling hills, picturesque farms, small unique towns along the Mississippi, we were in awe. Best part for us , we were able to bring our fur baby (elderly) with us, he loved it, OH THE SMELLS , our dog was in heaven! I would HIGHLY recommend Betty’s house, owners so a helpful, always getting back to us immediately (you never see that anymore). Home was soo clean and homey feeling. We are from Chicago so the peaceful surroundings was WONDERFUL! We are planning to visit again , it was like visiting an my parents home, warm & cozy! Thank you for sharing Betty’s home with us! 😊
We wanted to get out to the country to watch a Lunar Eclipse. We found what we needed at Betty's House.
The final directions were a little confusing but, after a bit, we found the address.
The house was clean and well appointed. We spent a lot of time out on the freshly mowed yard. Another outdoor table would've been handy.
It was nice of our hostess Nettie to come and join us for the "dramatic" start of the eclipse - none of us stayed up for it's entirety.
Betty's House is set in the quiet hills of Wisconsin. There are plent of touristy things to do nearby. The Great River Road, with all it's drama and entertainment! Also, strolling and bike riding country roads are aplenty. Not what we were looking for, but we wholeheartedly recommend it for tranquility, relaxation and quality.

Perfect House in Beautiful Rural Wisconsin
This was the perfect place for my 15-year old granddaughter and me. We stayed here four nights, and we both loved it. Lots of space -- Aurie had her own bedroom and bathroom. I loved the big kitchen, because I like to cook, even when I'm traveling. And I really enjoyed being able to jog each morning on the county road that has very little traffic!
Betty's Place is a lovely tribute to the host's mom, and we felt honored to be "her" guests.

Beautiful, spacious, peaceful retreat
This was such a happy surprise... Betty's House feels like it's saying "welcome home" the moment you walk in the door. It is spacious, with room to cook, to stretch out and relax, and (best of all) to sit on the small back porch and listen to the world wake up. Birdsong, trees, wind, and some cows... that is pretty much what you will hear. It is peaceful and welcoming here, and so very beautiful. John (who I was fortunate enough to meet) is kind and generous with his offers of a farm tour (we did not have time on this stay but hope to take advantage of this in the future), and there is good hiking all over the place. If you're a biker- bring your bike! We definitely hope to return.
