We really enjoyed the property. It was perfect for time away from the hustle of our busy lives. However, the location pinned for directions is not the property. It's the host's home about a block down.We booked over a month and a half in advance of our stay. I remember checking the box saying we were bringing pets. We communicated about my dogs before booking, after booking and over several messages and phone calls. Upon arrival, she met our dogs. At no time was anything said about there being an issue with our booking.We were awoken on our last day at 8am by the host. We did not answer as we were startled awake. She came back at 9 as we were getting up and requested 20 cash for our two dogs. I refused cash and informed her that should only come through the app. She told me she didn't know how. A lack of knowledge on how to use the technology does not make an emergency on my end.When I reported it to VRBO this they said I don’t need to do anything and they’d talk to the host. Just now she sent me an additional bill for the money.

This is indeed an old farmhouse. Spacious interior, and with nice vistas. Right on a major thoroughfare, so traffic noise detracted a bit from the otherwise peaceful location. Hosts are nearby, helpful and friendly.

Was a wonderful experience! The place was spacious enough for the family and the home was clean and welcoming. There is a beautiful view of the sunrise in the mornings! The hosts were great with communication, and went above and beyond expectations to make sure we were having a great stay. The kids really enjoyed watching the cows in the pastures from afar. People working around the farm were very friendly and always waved when we were outside. Over all I was very pleased with our stay and will definitely be looking to stay again during my future WI trips.

Wonderfully relaxing and beautiful location. Comfortable accommodations. Janice was great—very welcoming. We enjoyed our “return to hometown visit” tremendously, including going to the bookstore in the old Tobacco Warehouse, Saturday farmers market, dinner at the Driftless Cafe and the lounge at the restored Fortney Hotel.

Girls trip

We had a great time at the bunkhouse. Mom and daughter trip, with some wedding dress shopping, and thrift store shopping. We got to see a calf be born at the farm, that was a highlight for my girls who grew up in town.

Great stay at the farm!

This house is just as advertised. A large farm house with plenty of space. We loved the relaxed setting, the quaint farm house and the cows too! The house had everything we needed. It was clean and felt like home. Janis, our host, was helpful and available.

Nice Old Farm House with a Friendly Host

As the listing said, this was a clean, no frills 2 story old farmhouse. The A/C is provided using 1 window unit on each floor, which along with the ceiling fans kept everyone comfortably cool. The upstairs unit was loud in the bedroom where it was placed, so that room wasn't used for sleeping. The water pressure in the shower was very low but did the trick, just plan on spending a bit more time in there! Hostess Janice was very friendly and responsive, and the notebook that tells the history of the house and the people who lived in and around it was a wonderful read for all you history buffs out there. Overall a good experience!

Driftless weekend

What a delight! Janis is a wonderful host, met us at the property and showed us all around. The location is ideal - minutes from the Kickapoo Reserve, and down the road from Viroqua. The house is a lovely old farmhouse with beautiful wood details, comfortable furniture, fully equipped kitchen, and beautiful views.
