About the host
Hosted by Gary

We're originally from the Twin Cities, but we've also lived in Northeast Arkansas, the Chicagoland area and now live just South of Green Bay in De Pere. We've had the good fortune to travel to quite a few different countries and a decent amount of the US. We are excited to share our beautiful historic vacation home with visitors to the Central Wisconsin area.
