About this property

Remodeled country farmhouse, 3 min drive from Mississippi River, Peaceful/Clean.

Private and quiet, great place to stay. 3 minute drive from the Mississippi river and Lock and Damn #8. Local snowmobile trail runs right in front of the house, along the township road. Only 25 minutes from La Crosse, WI and 25 minutes from Viroqua, WI. Room to easily park a fishing boat or 2 or 3!
See visitor's guide for places to eat in the small towns of Genoa, Stoddard, and DeSoto.
Going fishing? Large turn around allows plenty of space to park and maneuver your fishing boat.
Bikers: there is a garage where you can store your bikes overnight. Bike along the Mississippi River or bike on the country roads throughout the Coulee Region, or check out trails here: https://www.trailforks.com/region/vernon-county/trails/
Families: Great place for family quality time. The owners of this property grew up here! Children can catch fireflies at night like we did as children. Jar provided! (We always let fireflies go in the morning). Walk and/or ride bike on the country road that runs in front of the house. This country road is a dead end, so very little traffic. There are several board games, puzzles, and lawn darts available. Both adult and children's books in upstairs dresser. Beautiful views from all windows. Relax on one of the two newly remodeled porches, one open and the other screened in. Black out blinds have been added to the bedrooms for that perfect night's sleep!

About the host

Host profile image
Your host lives in Stoddard, WI - just 7 miles from the property where you are staying. I grew up in Bill & Judy's Farmhouse! Bill and Judy were my parents. When I got married in 1977 I moved 7 miles to Stoddard. The property is owned by 3 sisters and a brother. I live closest so I am being the manager. I have always wanted to own my own business and my siblings are supporting this adventure!

Why they chose this property

The owners grew up here! This newly remodeled farmhouse that you are staying in was built somewhere between 1905 and 1910 according to our Uncle Mike. Our Grandma Agnes Pedretti grew up in this house and our parents purchased it from her, so the farm has been in the family for generations! Pictures of what the farm used to look like are hanging in downstairs rooms. When we were children, we were free to roam the woods and the cow pasture. We also worked in the fields, picking up rocks, loaded and unloaded hay, and learned how to plant and harvest tobacco. There was once a huge tobacco shed on the property (picture on the wall in the upstairs bedroom on the right).

What makes this property unique
