Quiet countryside shipping container home. Relax or enjoy outdoor recreation

Enjoy a secluded stay in a peaceful country setting. Our modern shipping container home is nestled on a hillside in the corner of our 160 acre farm. This unique space has 2 bedrooms, each bedroom has a queen bed and full closet. The bedrooms are on opposite sides of the house, making it perfect for two couples. The home is complete with a fully stocked kitchen and a bathroom, a commons area and a deck overlooking the countryside. A beautiful 5 min drive from Viroqua and Westby, WI. Two quaint small towns with lots to offer. The Driftless region has a wide variety of year-round outdoors activities to offer. Spend the day trout fishing on nearby streams, biking the Driftless area, canoe the Kickapoo river, or go for a hike at our many parks, and return to the peace and quiet. Enjoy the scenery from the deck or have a bon fire.

Quiet, cute country stay

The house was so comfortable and cute! The kitchen was well stocked and the beds were very comfortable. It was great to be able to walk on the property and see the deer running through the fields. We loved the quiet country location but so nice to be so close to Viroqua, ( and the Driftless Cafe :).
