Perfect for visiting family

Great space, great area, and so thankful this was pet friendly. The park down the road had a walking path that was perfect for our dogs to get out and exercise. Definitely hoping we will be welcomed back!

Great property!

This villa was perfect for our family of five while we were in the area for Christmas. The property was very clean, and the views of the surrounding bluffs were beautiful. The only minor issue was the toilets made a high pitched sound after flushing, but this was not a huge issue for us. We would definitely stay here again!

Poor communication with owner

Check in process was sorta strange. Property was open and keys were supposed to be on the table but we had to look for them. There were lots of air fresheners all over and we had to unplug them immediately; too strong. Some dog hair on carpet and on furniture. We had asked to reserve the extra room, got an email that it was not available but was charged anyway. After many attempts to contact the Owner we contacted VRBO who contacted owner and then we were refunded the charge for the extra room.

Family fun

Love the villa. It was perfect for the bunch of us from Illinois. We planned the stay for a Family Reunion in LaCrosse. Once we arrived it was a perfect place for our reunion and Pete( property owner) agree to let us have it there instead! We had a great time with the family and are planning to do it next year too.

About the host

Hosted by Pete Holte

I am the second generation owner of my family farm originally purchased in 1947. Through the years it has evolved to a hobby farm with large lawn area, hiking trails through the woods and a small vineyard. The Villa was built after the flood in 2007 to provide office space safely away from floodwaters and to provide a vacation space for those who like to escape to the countryside and enjoy nature or simply to relax and enjoy time with friends and family.

Why they chose this property

I have always enjoyed this property because of its fairly unique setting that includes 2 valleys with lots of hillsides and trees for wildlife habitat and trails throughout for a variety of hiking opportunities. The farm also has numerous springs and streams that provide a place for natural trout reproduction and a relaxing waterfall sound. I guess I have always wanted to share this with other people so that they can enjoy what I live with and with their feedback always enjoy it myself and never take it for granted.

What makes this property unique

The setting here is very appealing! The property is surrounded on several sides by running water. Several Waterfalls are on the property and the immediate scenery is incredible throughout the four seasons of the year.
