Wayne and Sherrie are very welcoming as well as respectful about privacy. The cottage is a sweet place to stay in a beautiful area. We rent frequently, and comparatively, the cottage was not only very clean with well maintained modern conveniences for cooking and more, but had all the special touches that make a stay really enjoyable. We hope to return one day. Thank you!

My partner and I had a wonderful mini vacation in the Viroqua WI area. The Otts cottage was perfect for the two of us. The grounds are beautiful, the atmosphere is serene and peaceful, the hosts are friendly and a great source of information about the surrounding area. Five stars are not enough to show how happy and comfortable we were. I give our stay 10 stars!!

Cottage perfect for a weekend getaway

This cottage was just perfect for me and my spouse. There were so many nice touches like cushy bathmats and nightlights. Beautiful location with a beautiful view. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a place to stay in the driftless area.

Peaceful Getaway

Absolutely beautiful space. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. The porch is very private with great sunrise views of the Driftless area. The grounds and gardens were stunning. It’s a sign of goodness when nature is thriving all around. Close to Viroqua but not too close:)Thank you Wayne and Sherry! We hope to be back again!

Perfect Driftless bilking weekend

The cottage gave my spouse and I a luxurious, tasteful space to prepare for and rest from gorgeous bike rides through the areas hills and valleys. Host Wayne's professional massage at the end of a long ride was pure heaven. Morning sunrise over the open views and birdsong was unforgettable. Perfect stay.

Mississippi River tour

We were looking for a place to stay while wandering along the upper Mississippi River. Location was perfect for this. Short ride from the river to this place at the end of a road in the middle of rolling hills farm country just added to our enjoyable wandering. Inside the cottage we found a neat clean and comfortable place to come back to each evening. Best shower I have ever found in a rental.

Peaceful Country Getaway

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this peaceful property perched on a ridge in the Driftless Area! Wayne and Sherrie were very gracious and welcoming hosts, and the garden cottage was spotless, with everything needed to make my stay comfortable. Highlights include watching Red-headed Woodpeckers (and other birds) visit the suet feeder in front of the porch, then later seeing fireflies light up the night sky. A great getaway!

So glad we discovered this cottage getaway

We hope to stay here many more times in the future since we love the Viroqua area. Gorgeous views from this ridgetop, completely quiet (slept like the dead both nights), beautiful flower and vegetable gardens, and the cottage is cozy, bright, homey and very clean. It was provided with every amenity we'd want...even fresh organic half-and-half for the coffee, thanks for that. Felt very private, but loved meeting Wayne and Sherrie, wonderful hosts.

Delightfuly peaceful!

The perfect getaway from it all.This small cottage is a perfect escape trom it all. It is well appointed and cheerfully decorated. The surrounding countryside provides stunning views. I would definitely recommend this destination to anyone seeking a respite in the country. My only suggestion to improve the cabin? Add a screen door. This time of year, they all want to get in! Wayne & Sherrie are great hosts!

What a Wonderful Place to Stay!

Our stay at The Garden Cottage was wonderful. The cottage was cozy and homey with just the right amount of space for two. The hosts, Wayne and Sherrie, have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. They were very accommodating and gave us a lot of helpful advice/info about the area. All though the cottage is right next door to the main house, we never felt our privacy was compromised. The cottage porch was a great place to relax after a busy day of adventure – flowers and hummingbirds abound with nice views of the surrounding rolling countryside. The cottage is in a great location for visiting the Driftless area of Wisconsin. Close enough to restaurants and shopping but far enough out to be quiet and close to nature. Area musts: Bike the Elroy-Sparta trail, Kayak the Kickapoo River (We suggest Drifty’s Canoe Rental in Ontario), Hike the Old Settler’s Trail loop at Wildcat Mountain State Park (Scenic views), and eat at the Driftless Café in Viroqua (Wonderful food) and Borgens Café in Westby (Awesome breakfast and the BEST PIE EVER!!) Oh and one more thing – If you like your morning coffee as much as we do, stop in to the Viroqua Food Co-op and pick up one (or several ;) packages of the Kickapoo Coffee. (Organic Driftless is our favorite – so incredibly smooth!) Hope to visit again soon, Cassie & Mark Richards

This cottage is beautiful, in an incredibly serene setting! The cottage is clean and cozy, very comfortable and relaxing. The gardens are lovely, as are the hosts. We spent a lot of time sitting on the porch sipping coffee watching the birds, and then sipping wine watching the fireflies. It’s a quick drive to Viroqua which has amazing food, an incredible used book store and a lively street festival on Saturdays. We will definitely be back!

Front Porch Getaway with a View

We experienced lovely views from this little gem. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful for any questions that we had. They also shared some of their apples from their bumper orchard crop with us to take home. We would definitely recommend the Garden Cottage.
