Phyllis was a wonderful host. She communicated from the beginning of the booking process until after check-out. The property was beautiful and the home had everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed watching the birds and the crazy antics of the early morning squirrels. We would definitely stay again.

This cabin was exactly what we needed. There’s something so restorative about the silence of the Driftless; without the noise of city life, you’re left with nothing but the peaceful sounds of nature. We left feeling completely recharged and are already dreaming of our next escape to this hidden gem

We are stayed here many times in this very special house and property. The only sounds you hear are the birds and the tree frogs. We do a lot of cooking and the kitchen is fully equipped. We absolutely love the fireplace as we have been here many times in the winter. Phyllis responds very quickly to any questions you may have.We also enjoy the location which is so convenient to both Spring Green and Mineral Point.

About the host

Hosted by Phyllis Dyer

Host profile image
This property has been in our family since 1975 when Gene and Elizabeth Stirling bought 30 woodland acres and hired Frank Lloyd Wright apprentice Frank Leach to build them this retirement/summer home. Elizabeth’s son Christopher, Phyllis’s husband, along with many local friends, helped with the construction. Once the house was completed Elizabeth filled it with furniture and décor from her world travels. Her grandchildren came from all over the country to spend their summers here. Christopher built his own family home on the property,
up the hill, in 1979.
Over the years four generations have lived in this house at different times- including a Taliesin tour guide, Spring Green General Store owners, an editor of the Home News and an American Players Theatre actor. In 2012 Phyllis moved in following Christopher’s passing. She and her son and his wife- an Interior Designer- did extensive renovations to the bathrooms, kitchen and floors.
And now Phyllis welcomes her own children and grandchildren who travel cross-country to spend time here every summer.
We hope you enjoy our treasured family retreat as much as we have over the years.
The Dyer Family
