About this property

Your Country Home Away From Home - (Rate based on 2 guests)

Kyle's Place is your country home away from home. It is settled in a picturesque farm valley surrounded by woods in south western Dunn County, Wisconsin. It is approximately 16 miles from Menomonie. It is a place to come and relax, re-connect with your family and friends, and rejuvenate by spending time in the great outdoors. The property allows for walks and biking trails in the woods, seeing wildlife, bird-watching, hopping on the county ATV or snowmobile trail, riding bike, or sitting on the deck and enjoying the scenery.

Even though we are in a quiet, peaceful valley there are plenty of interests nearby:

* Red Cedar Bike Trail and River is approximately 8 miles away for using the trail for biking, cross-country skiing, or tubing/kayaking down the river
* Many local museums and historical sites in the area
* Local cheese factories with the famous Ellsworth cheese curds and possible tours available
* Antique stores in nearby towns
* Outdoor Water park approximately 25 minutes away
* A family fun amusement center with indoor water park and more approximately 40 miles away
* Scenic Highway 35 about 30 minutes away for sight-seeing the Mississippi River towns; perfect for your motorcycle ride

This is a two story home which includes three bedrooms, a family room with a pull-out queen size sofa, updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, two updated bathrooms, dining and living room with open concept, and a laundry room for your convenience. Outdoor space provides decking with a grill and a patio area which includes a fire pit and hot tub.

Great views from this property. Nice and quiet out in the country. The house is very clean and stocked with everything you could need. We were able to have a fire, hang in the hot tub, and grill some steaks. We had a great time.

We love Kyle’s place!

We’ve stayed a number of times for unplugging, family time, games inside & out, hot tubbing, fires, star gazing… it’s a magical place! And such a comfortable stay with everything you need - one of the most well-stocked kitchens and more.

Great place

A nice house with great hosts. Nestled in a small coulee, this house has great views of the fall leaves changing. Nice hiking trails out the back door. We went to a near by orchard for apple picking and a pie. There are great butcher shops near also for grilling. The house had everything we needed, since we like cooking our own food. The hottub was a perfect way ro end the day.

Perfect getaway for relaxing

House was perfect for my wife and I. We stayed a week and it was very relaxing and quiet. You are smack dab in the middle of a working farm and we loved it. Never seen so much corn in my life! Diane and Jeff were great host and were there when we arrived and showed us around. The House was even better then the pics and a great way to remember their son Kyle. We will def be back!

Our group of women friends had a wonderful time! Everything was perfect!

We took advantage of the beautiful surroundings, including a canoe trip down the nearby Chippewa river, visiting local establishments (for fresh sweet corn, cheese, honey, maple syrup), walking the trails near the house, enjoying the hot tub, and building fires in the fire pit! The house was spotless, spacious, and cozy. We spent most of our time on the deck soaking in the stillness and beauty! Loved the soft mooing of neighboring cows!

LOVED our stay!

Kyle's Place was a fantastic place for me to meet up with parents and sister (we all live in different states) and make some wonderful memories together. The home is spacious, clean, homey, and beautifully decorated! We had so much fun making dinner in the kitchen and enjoying meals on the patio, as well as using the fire pit, hot tub, and croquet set! We visited Crystal Cave and walked a stretch of the Red Cedar Trail nearby, but most of our time was spent relaxing and playing games at the lovely house. I 100% recommend you stay at Kyle's Place--we hope to do another family get-together there again soon!

Everything you need

Great house, wonderful layout, and anything that you could think of to make your stay better was already thought of. From the time we arrived to when we left it was amazing and felt like home. Kitchen well stocked, hot tub phenomenal, all new appliances and grill, comfortable bed, and nothing but peace and relaxation. It is a little in the country but we wanted to get away from the city and just have a place to relax. Well worth the drive to any place you want to go in Minneapolis/St. Paul or Wisconsin. Definitely a great find.

Very nice property; owners were good to deal with

Very nice property. There were T.V's and bedrooms upstairs and downstairs; good for groups having their own space. House was fairly secluded, I could see a couple roofs of the neighbor's houses in the distance but that was it, so we felt we had plenty of privacy. The nearest access point to the Red Cedar bike trail that we could find was about 15 minutes away. The nearest city with stores and plenty of restaurants was Memomonie, about a half hour away. Google Maps found the place without any trouble. This was a very nice place, I would recommend it.

Perfect accomodations

We had a wonderful time. The accommodations were amazing. It was so peaceful and relaxing. There were walking trails, a deck with a big table over looking the wilderness. Beautiful watching the sunset. There was a hot tub outside that added the perfect touch to the trip. The owner met us and gave a tour the night we arrived. This added a perfect personal touch. It was out in the country yet a short drive to neighboring cities. We definitely want to go back again. We would refer this property to everyone.

An absolute gem! A true delight!

Not only are the hosts extremely kind, personable, accommodating, and welcoming, but they have truly created something special with this country home. Spacious, clean, well stocked and tastefully decorated in a way that simply exudes rest and relaxation. Set in the rolling hills of WI, the hot tub, fire pit, lawn games, and personal hiking trails made it a joy to be outside. Inside there is plenty of space to lounge about, play cards, watch a movie, and cook in the big kitchen. Beds are super comfortable with soft sheets and blankets. We absolutely loved our stay. Thank you!

Tranquility in the Country

Kyle’s Place is amazing!!! It’s quiet, peaceful, and relaxing! My friend and I went for a Moms weekend away and it was perfect! We never turned the tv on one time! We cooked and grilled, walked on the trails, read and did yoga, napped and enjoyed the hot tub! I’m so glad we came upon this location! Diane was wonderful to communicate with. The listing is everything and more as is was presented. We will definitely be back!!!

Everything We Hoped It Would Be!

My husband and I stayed at Kyle's Place for several days and had an amazing time! We were looking for a relaxing getaway, and couldn't have asked for a better time. We spent our days outside reading on the deck and enjoying the beautiful weather. We got groceries in the nearby town of Menomonie and cooked most of our meals at the house since the kitchen is stocked with all the supplies you could ever need. We also stopped by a local meat shop (Sailer's) and grilled out several times. In the evenings we were able to enjoy the hot tub and couldn't believe how many stars we could see! Our entire stay felt extremely peaceful and we wished we could've stayed longer. This was my second visit to Kyle's Place and I can't wait to return for a third!

About the host

Hosted by Diane

Host profile image
My husband has lived in this valley all of his life. He and I have been married for 41 years. Our farm land surrounds this home. Our farmstead and home is about a half a mile down the road.

Why they chose this property

Our son bought this home in 2009. Tragically, our son died in a car accident November, 2011. We have decided to turn it into a country get away.

What makes this property unique

Kyle's Place is very special to us and we hope family and friends come a make many happy memories here. We feel it is a little piece of "God's Country" in a quiet rural valley. It is a place to unite with nature and the great outdoors. The décor is part rustic and part modern. You will be able to relax, re-connect, and rejuvenate in our country home away from home.
