About this property

A Home Away from Home in the Quaint Village of New Glarus

This privately owned brick house has been a family treasure. The home features original oak trim, cabinetry and flooring. The floor tile in the foyer and upstairs bathroom are all inlaid and original. Furnishings and decor make the home cozy and inviting. This house is able to accomodate family or friend gatherings and reunions, yet offer quiet time and relaxation.

Relaxing girls weekend
Took a quick two night getaway trip with my mom and we had a blast. The house was beautiful and extremely clean, there was ample sleeping room, and it had everything we could have possibly needed. We will definitely be booking here again and truly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful historic home!

"Wow, we're staying in that mansion!"
We had an excellent stay in New Glarus. The place was amazing and we could've spent a say exploring just the house itself. Close proximity to downtown in a quiet neighborhood. Plenty of space to gather or have some quiet time alone. We'll definitely be back!

Girlfriend Visit
Jane was prompt with all communication. The home is absolutely lovely with comfortable furniture, beds and a great kitchen space. We enjoyed the multiple choices for sitting areas to catch up and relax. I wish New Glarus had more options for dining during the week but it is the way businesses have to survive right now.
