Sparta is a quiet small town with a lot to offer. For the bicycle enthusiast we are the Bicycling Capital of America. Whether you bring your own bikes or rent them you will have easy access to 100's of miles of scenic rail beds including several historic tunnels. For the motorcyclists we are part of the Driftless Region of hilly, winding country roads.

During the warmer months Sparta has the 18 hole River Run golf course and a new city aquatic center with a zero entry pool, giant slide and lazy river. There are also canoeing and kayaking opportunities on several nearby waterways. The Mississippi River is just 30 minutes away with its majestic scenery and river boats.

We are also home to Fort McCoy, an active Army training base, complete with its museums. During the winter it also has a small skiing/tubing hill open to the public.
More information on Amish tours, local museums, shopping opportunities and special events is available from the Sparta Chamber of Commerce.

    We celebrated Thanksgiving 2025 with family from La Crosse, Eau Claire & Waterford. Perfect house for all to visit. Super comfortable! The house had everything we needed. We would definitely book this again!

    Beautiful home right in town. We liked the large screen porch out front. Huge yard, although we didn't have time to enjoy it with our schedule. Well stocked dishes and utensils. Close to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed the home and biking the Elroy Sparta trail.

    First impression wasn’t good. Outside needs work. 10” dandelions all over the lawn when we drove up to the property. Walked into the house and was greeted with a terrible odor of old home and not sure what else. Lighting is not good in key areas. Light over the stove doesn’t work. Disgustingly gross. The floors creek but I’m ok with that. Dead mouse in the garage can that was rotting was terrible. Found that out on checkout day. We did not go through a single garage bag besides that one on checkout day which tells me the cleaning is suspicious. The shower is moldy. There is only a 1.5 bath. The 1/2 bath is really small and barely useable. The main bathroom has a shower and a bath tub. The door for the shower doesn’t stay closed for showering. My 88 year old parents were with my family so they just rolled with the show. I think they loved the character of the place but they thought it was way overpriced for 2 days.. I loved the community amenities like local shopping and grocery. Only street parking if you have a larger vehicle. A small car is fine for the driveway. No local tv, only streaming for Netflix. Very disappointing stay.

    We’ve stayed here before and it’s just what we need to stay in Sparta and have a place to host family gatherings.

    Seven long time Friends gathered to celebrate our 20 years of quilting together while staying at the Prairie House for the 9th year. Well equipped house within walking distance of downtown and in. A safe neighborhood.

    This was our third year. Great old house. Very well stocked with everything we needed. We come for the bike trails and shopping. The weather was perfect 3 days in a row.
