The ideal retreat - nestled in the heart of the driftless region. This area is composed of a distinctive terrain, having been bypassed by the last continental glacier, it provides a hilly paradise with fog filled valleys. Situated right off the banks of Timber Coulee Creek, stated as perhaps one of the most popular and prolific waters in the driftless region, this tastefully appointed cottage beckons its visitors to partake in the peaceful silence. The driftless area moves at its own pace, defined by Amish buggies and narrow winding roads, organic farms and silent sports such as fly fishing, biking and canoeing. The location encourages guests to experience local wineries, breweries, farm to table restaurants , cheese shops, coffee roasters, and farmerâs markets, while providing a secluded escape to enjoy nature, hobbies, and unwind.
My husband and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The cottage is beautiful inside and out. We especially enjoyed sitting in the screened porch. We ventured into LaCrosse, Winona, and Viroqua and found a lot of great used bookstores.
We had a wonderful time at this cottage. Its location is a perfect spot for a fishing trip as it is close to many creeks/coulees. The cottage is also very thoughtfully laid out for fly fishermen. It is very well appointed and we enjoyed the scenery and screened in porch to relax between fishing adventures. Will hopefully be back sometime!
A snug cabin on a trout stream nestled in a Wisconsin coulee.
I sat on the bench at streamside just before dawn taking in the cold clean air.
Between the great horned owl hooting goodnight and the.pair of eagles greeting the dawn.....lifetime memory for sure.
This is our first time staying at this property since it was renovated. It is beautiful. We really enjoyed our visit. Caught some trout in the Timber Coulee also.
What a magical trip to the Driftless region of Wisconsin! This cottage is a true gem. So beautifully designed and decorated with cozy touches throughout. We loved our stay and will definitely return again!
Perfect little oasis in the Coulee Region! Tasteful decor and well appointed kitchen for cooking and enjoying the view of the trout creek and cow farm. Our teen girls loved the aesthetic - many pictures were taken during golden hour in the hammock and by the stream. Cottage was better than the pictures - property is stunning and was a true getaway.
This is our second stay at this property. It was exactly as I remembered it. The property is impeccably maintained and clean. The owners have thought of everything! Beautiful property.
Ted, our host gave us a thorough overview of the house,what to do and not do, he also responded quickly when we had an issue. Very comfortable, terrific screened in porch. Well outfitted, had everything we needed. Also, a beautiful setting.
The property was beautiful and very well maintained. Would love to see in in summer when all the plants would be in bloom. Close to towns and amish shops and greenhouses. Would highly recommend.
This property definitely has an upscale feel to it. It's an ideal setup if someone doesn't want to spend every waking minute fishing because it has a terrific kitchen, comfortable living room, and an outstanding screened in porch. The hosts really thought out the details and we didn't lack for anything. I'd like to visit in the fall when shorter days would force us to take more advantage of the comfort of the cottage!
Beautiful cottage stream side! Couldnât have asked for a better spot as a fly fisher. Looking out over the stream and pastoral views were especially relaxing and peaceful. The design of the cottage and the comfort level was more than 5 star. So comfortable. Everything was well thought out and made our stay so enjoyable. The weather was not cooperating but we did not care because we were in the cozy cottage!! Thank you. We will be back.
World class accommodation and ownership.
Have been staying at the former and now nearly completely rebuilt cottage due to its central location for several years to Driftless fly fishing opportunities and was blown away with the renovation and attention to every detail on and around the propertyâŠ
Best sunsets and view of the valley and terriffic fishing steps from the doorâŠ. T&K take great pains to make sure this home away from home meets every need, including a soaking tub for end of the day relaxation. Fully equipped chefs kitchen makes meals a breeze.
For the end of Trout Season, Oct. 15th each year, a group of us try to meet out in the Driftless - our 8th year doing so. With such unpredictable weather, I've started renting places to be out of weather, be comfortable, and get a good night's sleep, with an easy shower and coffee in the morning. In addition, I've been so enamored with the Drifltess - Viroqua area it has become a goal to bring my spouse out during the trout season to experience it. The lovely cottage on the Timber Coulee was exceptional. Perfectly appointed, and cottage stylized, that it's hard to fathom anyone not feeling comfortable there. It would be a lovely future place for a couples getaway, where one partner could literally walk out the door and fish for a couple of hours, while the other enjoys coffee and a good book on the lovely screened porch.
Twice a year, a 30 year friendship between 4 friends occurs. As one of them is local to the area, we were not able to bunk at her house and found your ADORABLE cottage. It was so cozy and beautifully done inside. Owners were readily helpful when we had issues with the fireplace. We just need the name of the green cabinetry! LOL
All of our souls were filled over the 2 night stay and some of that is due to the atmosphere of this cottage and scenery. We definitely will be booking again.
The cottage was all that we had hoped for and more. Check-in went smoothly and we opened the door to a beautifully decorated interior that provided a sense of comfort and coziness. All our needs were covered by the well-equipped kitchen and comfortable bedding and bath accessories. We spent our evenings out on the screen porch which offered a sense of sitting outside due to the small mesh screen. Having the sounds of the birds and chirping insects while enjoying cocktails and wine was very pleasant. The fishing was excellent in the area streams and it was quite a bonus to be able to finish off the evening with a few cast just outside the front door. Thank you to our hosts for sharing this wonderful place with us, we will definitely be back.
This rental is absolutely gorgeous! The area is one of our favorites, and the home now is, too. Every space is beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. We cannot wait to come back in the spring and enjoy the breathtaking, screened in patio. While there was little to no cell phone signal, the Wi-Fi worked great!
We stayed at this rental in 2021, prior to it being renovated, for our 10 year Anniversary. I couldnât even believe I was standing in the same place!! What theyâve done to it, is beyond words! Straight out of Chip and Joanna Gainesâ âFixer Upperâ show. We also enjoyed being within a half hour from Lacrosse and only 7 minutes from Westby. Looking forward to coming back again!
We have been property owners/managers for over 25 years. Ted spends free time fly fishing the Timber Coulee Creek and surrounding driftless area, Kimberly's interests include interior decorating and design, and flower gardening. We consider ourselves pretty lucky to enjoy this location. The cottage is appointed from the perspective of "what do we enjoy and appreciate" and have this guide our every choice and decision.
Timber Coulee Cottage is located just steps from the Timber Coulee Creek. Fly fishing is "just out your front door". Surrounded by rolling hills and grazing cattle, the yard provides beautiful landscape and privacy. The location provides easy access to the entire driftless area allowing our guests to enjoy hiking, canoeing, kayaking, biking, fly fishing, dining, wineries, breweries, and more.
Timber Coulee Cottage is the only cottage with "front door access" to Timber Coulee Creek. Completely renovated, well appointed, beautifully landscaped. The screen porch is a favorite among all guests!
