Driftless Getaway

The Upper Place Cottage was a wonderful weekend escape. Our pups loved running the trails, and the leaves were at their peak for the season! The house was clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. The staircase is a bit harrowing, but you get used to it. We would love to come back - especially in the winter to snowshoe or ski the trails.

Perfect place for a weekend family getaway.

This place was very clean. And was well appointed. They had everything we needed, and we were 15 min from everything we wanted to do. There are some beautiful trout waters in that area! Thanks !

Great Place to Relax and Connect With Nature

My husband, my mom, my dog and I had a great a great weekend staying here. The property is beautiful. It was wonderful to have that many different trails around the property. The cabin is comfortable and is well equipped. The host James provided us with clear instructions about the checking. Thank you!

Driftless Area

Very scenic, cute cottage. Be aware, no cell service. Had no hot water for our stay. Staircase may not be suitable for older adults. Extremely well equipped. Worth the stay even with the negatives.
