Relax in the comfort of a full-size 2 bedroom, 2 bath luxury 2nd floor apartment with separate entrance for your convenience and privacy. Enjoy the quiet country life with panoramic views of Big Creek Valley from the bay window in your living room, or sip a favorite beverage on the spacious balcony adjoining the King room. Feel free to enjoy our large lawn, take a walk along our woods or enjoy an evening fire in the fire pit.

Our home is situated on the side of a small hill overlooking an active farming area with farmers fields and pastures giving way to rolling wooded hills in the distance. Enjoy a bicycle or motorcycle ride or quiet drive along paved country roads, or relax in the yard or on your balcony with a good book and a favorite beverage.

Wintertime sports activities are nearby with cross country and downhill skiing, tubing and snowboarding at Fort McCoy, cross country at the golf course in Sparta, and downhill at Mount La Crosse. Snowmobile trails abound! You and the kids can enjoy sledding on the mild slope of the hill right behind your apartment, build snowmen in the yard, etc. Try your hand at ice-fishing on Perch Lake or Lake Neshonoc or skating at the Sparta Hockey Rink or one of the outdoor rinks at Memorial Park in Sparta... or just snuggle in and stay warm in the apartment.

The apartment is attached to our home with a separate entrance for your convenience. Sound buffers between our living spaces mean we can't hear you and you can't hear us.

RECLAIMED CHARM
A few years ago a storm blew over an enormous elm tree I climbed as a kid. It landed on the corner of an early 1900's granary. The owner chose not to repair it and allowed us to take it down for the salvaged lumber. You'll find that reclaimed lumber throughout the apartment. Wooden floors were reworked from the granary flooring. Wainscot, trim and wood ceilings were made from the siding. Shelves and benches that adorn the apartment were made from refashioned roofing boards. Table, work station and vanity tops were made from wall studs, beams and boards. Nail holes, knots and blemishes remain visible in the wood giving the finished pieces a unique and beautiful character.

Building our Vacation Rental apartment using reclaimed wood, inspired us to start a green business. Used Anew is operated primarily on site. Guests can take a tour of our Show Home & Shoppe, just down the hill, to see many of the products and features we make from reclaimed wood and other materials. As Used Anew, we've taken apart unwanted buildings in the area, saving what we can of the vintage materials. Then, working with area Amish craftsmen and our own in-house ThingMakers, we produce flooring, accent wall and ceiling options, kitchen cabinets, furniture and decor - all from reclaimed materials!
Along the way, we also accumulate antiques and collectibles, and make these available in the Show Home & Shoppe, as well.
SO, don't forget to ask about Used Anew and request a visit to the Show Home & Shoppe!

A brief word about our rates. We keep our base rate low to encourage singles and small groups to enjoy our property, with a sliding scale ($15 per person, per stay for more than two guests) to cover our increasing costs for larger groups. We don’t charge a separate cleaning fee, so this is our method to cover the increased costs of more cleaning, more laundry, more water usage etc., as the size of the group increases. This is all auto-calculated as you enter the number of guests, pets, etc. when you book, so the total you see for your stay will have been adjusted accordingly (also including taxes and fees VRBO charges).

    Very clean and well stocked. A/C was wonderful after a hot day. Beds were comfy as well. Has a complete kitchen (although we didn’t have time to use it). The owner greeted us and answered any questions and we didn’t see them again. Definitely will stay here again!

    We had a great time. It was a very cozy place and the hosts were very welcoming. It also felt very private even though the apartment was attached to the main house. We would definitely stay again!

    This is the place best to stay if you want to get away in the peace and quiet of rural Wisconsin. Larry and LuAnn greeted us with a warm welcome when we arrived, and it felt like we'd known them forever. The space was comfortable for the 4 of us, with ample room to make meals, lots of windows to see the beautiful countryside (and watch the storms come in!), comfortable beds...I could go on...a place to grill, a fire pit...Check-in and check-out was easy. I highly recommend this place for anyone's next getaway!

    We loved our anniversary weekend at this Vrbo! It was in a nice, secluded area close to town. The owners were very friendly upon arrival, and then gave us our space for the rest of our stay. We had concerns about this not being a private location, but the two homes are definitely soundproofed. Although we could smell their dinners being made lol, and thought about joining them. The wood floors and other wooden accents are gorgeous in this place! We loved exploring around the WI/MN area, finding all the artisan cheese shops and going to the Amish community for some produce and baked goods. After a couple of great days adventuring, it was wonderful each night to return to this beautiful vacation home and enjoy the jacuzzi tub, shower with double showerheads, and fireplace while watching a movie. We will definitely choose this place again when we're looking for a weekend away that is only a hop, skip, and jump from our farm in southern MN.

    We're regulars -- meaning about once a year for the past five or six years. It's always a great place. Very quiet, beautiful country setting, perched up on a hill. Apartment is clean, fully equipped, with handsomely designed and uniquely crafted woodwork and furniture. Larry and Lu are gracious, respectful and accomplished people, and have always made us feel at home. We'll be back!
