About this property

Forest and Farm 4BR Retreat, Modern and Spacious Farmhouse

Our modern farmhouse with vintage barns are nestled within 18 acres of towering pines is the perfect backdrop for your wedding, retreat, family stay, or private event. The property is the perfect mix of elegant style in a rustic setting that creates a one-of-a-kind experience. Enjoy a secluded up north feel that’s close enough to everything you love about Wisconsin.

When you’re here you’ll experience a beautiful old growth tree farm, 30 minutes north of Milwaukee. It’s just far enough to connect with nature and see the stars, but close enough to everything you love about Wisconsin.


The house has 2 wings, this is listing is for the main house or East Wing and has plenty of space for all your guests and features a panoramic sunroom which we fondly call “the bird room” for its spectacular views of the forest filled with woodland animals. It has an open floor plan kitchen so whether you’re doing the cooking or the one watching the game, you can be fully immersed in quality time with your friends and family. Warm up by the fireplace, head out for a hike on our walking paths, or just simply be. No matter what the season or reason you’re staying, there’s plenty for everyone to enjoy.


In The Summer Months
This property has up north feels. It is surrounded by 60 foot pines and around the corner from pristine nature preserves and bike trails. We are just a few miles down the road from Lake Michigan, the beach, and the harbor town of Port Washington where you can rent a fishing boat or surf the waves on a windy day. You can also golf at the many nearby world class golf clubs. We are next to the beautiful town of Cedarburg that is a destination in itself. It is a lovely collection of old stone shops and restaurants on the river that will enchant with live music and popular festivals all year long. In our gardens you will find a medley of flowers and vegetables and often our beloved chickens.


In The Winter Months
Winter here is a magical wonderland. Enjoy our 3 wood burning fireplaces and bring your snowmobile, sleds, skies and warm mittens. We are very close to Sunburst ski and tubing hill. There are winter celebrations all around the area and on select Friday nights until Christmas- Downtown Cedarburg lines the streets with lanterns and welcome all to Santa’s workshop. January's winter festival hosts ice skating on the river, and bed sled races that are not to be missed.

Come, wander our forests, explore the barns, the log cabin, and play in the wildflower field. Everyone is welcome here.

A Sublime Retreat
We popped up from Chicago to enjoy the wide open space, a little peace and quiet and ended up more relaxed than we'd been in months...we walked the property, relaxed by the fire when it rained, and sat in the sun and read. This sublime retreat is clean, peaceful, updated and warm, as is the hospitality. And the organic eggs - a complete bonus! We popped into Grafton and Port Washington, too. This was just what we needed...THANKS!

Magnolia Home Charm
This place was exactly as described. Stayed for a small girls weekend getaway. Close to shopping in Downtown Cedarburg. Very elloquantly decorated with a mix of modern farmhouse style and beautiful antique pieces to make this place very charmful and right out of a Magnolia magazine! So much character and very comfortable stay. Hosts were super friendly, with great communication and was there to assist us, with questions or needs. This place is a perfect setting for an intimate country wedding complete with an onsite barn for a reception. I would give this place 6 stars if I could! Would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Dale Stenbroten

Host profile image
We have been photographers for over 30 years. In the last 11 years or so, we began hosting and and really enjoy it. We are very laid back and easy going, but passionate about giving our guests 5 star service. We are extremely interested in slow living, sustainability, natural health, and regenerative agriculture and love learning more about how we can incorporate that into the property. Our dream for expanding the property includes more farm animals (like donkeys, sheep and alpacas) and bringing in more amenities while still maintaining the vintage charm of the property and honoring the land.

Why they chose this property

At first, the forest. After our first tour with our real estate agent we knew immediately that this was the place. As wedding photographers for 30 years, we have experienced wedding venues all over the world and always dreamed of opening our own but with a twist. We wanted it to tie into a more authentic and relaxing experience. This is the perfect property for that.

Almost all of our wedding packages include a multi-night stay in the home which allows you more time to set up and enjoy your wedding weekend instead of rushing through. We are there every step of the way to lend a helping hand when needed and ensure you get the best experience that Abloom has to offer. If you're interested in hosting a wedding at Abloom let us know or visit our website for packages/pricing.

What makes this property unique

Our forest is extremely unique to the area. When you enter the property, you immediately feel that classic Wisconsin Up North feeling but are still only 30 minutes from Milwaukee.

We also are set up for events. Weddings are a large focus of our property so we have all of the infrastructure and equipment to host events including our vintage barns. Events do need to be approved by us beforehand so if you're interested in hosting an event, please contact us!

The West Wing is available also. Please contact us for details or check our other 6 bedroom listing for more details.
