Spacious lodging situated in the most beautiful part of Wisconsin. Came to go to Spring Green and Taliesen and was astonished at how gorgeous and charming the area was. The antique unit was quite large, had everything we needed, and perfect for our purposes. Had to contact the owner about one issue and he was over in minutes to handle it. Chatted with him for a while another time and really liked him, though he doesn't live on the premises and you really do have the whole place to yourself. Highly recommend. I will be back!

Awesome Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay in the Antique Unit at Bear Valley. We went in the winter to just get away. We would love to check it out in the summer sometime and see what there is to do in the area.

Cozy, Comfortable Getaway

My partner and I had a wonderful weekend in the Antique Unit. It was sparkling clean, spacious, and provided all we needed (and more) for our weekend of hiking and birding. We're already looking forward to a return trip!

WOW! What an INCREDIBLE stay. My husband and I celebrated our first anniversary weekend a little early this year and we had such an amazing stay. Bill and Noelle are so sweet. Bill stopped by one night to say hello and he is such a kind person. You can tell how much he truly cares about your stay! Noelle’s directions and responses on everything was so prompt. Incredible home. The antique unit is wonderful. I love taking naps midday and the king bed mattress was one of the best beds I have ever slept on and I went to sleep so fast. We will be back.Thank you so much Bill and Noelle! You both deserve all the good there is. Highly recommend!!-Sarah and Matt

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property. The owner indicated they will add a WiFi booster to provide a stronger signal throughout the house.

Thanks for your patience, Mike. I have contacted two different services for our rural area, and have gotten two different answers. I have not given up, however, and will keep trying. I have ordered a couple of boosters to try until I can find a provider that works better in our area.

One of a kind, great location

An awesome place to stay and have as a base if you are hiking or exploring the Driftless region! You will likely lose cell service before arriving so definitely print out directions. Beautiful patio, great for drinking coffee early in the morning!

Off the grid

What a beautiful piece of paradise. Lots of wildlife, little to no cell service (which we love, but no worries if you don't, Bill has phenomenal WIFI), and views for days! It's not a 5star resort, but thats the charm. LOVE!

I’m glad that you enjoyed your stay, and thank you for leaving everything so neat and clean! Cell service can be spotty unless you have AT&T, or Consumers Cellular. They get good cell service, but for those that don’t, you can get it through WiFi with the password that I have in the Information Book, but I agree, sometimes it is nice not to have it at all. 😊 We hope to see you later this summer!
