Inn at Lonesome Hollow

The Getaway: Enter the Driftless Area, a part of the midwest that offers constant dramatic landscapes, hundreds of cold water streams, and thousands of acres of forest that surround small family farms. Enter a geography that is very different from the cities and flat plains of the upper midwest. Enter a quiet natural setting in which a couple may find abundant solitude and ”down time”. 

Backwaters of the Kickapoo River

The Romance: What awaits you is a beautiful modern home set on a hillside and backed by deciduous forest; large king or queen beds; a warm gas fireplace; a two person whirlpool tub; comfy robes; delicious hot breakfasts; outdoor evening fires complete with hot chocolate; miles of private hiking trails; a sky so black at night that you will never, ever be able to count the stars; intimate, quiet time that is so difficult to find in your normal life.

The Pine Haven Room

Drive the beautiful hills of Southwest Wisconsin; drive along the Mississippi River, or the Wisconsin River, or the ever meandering Kickapoo River. Dine at small rural restaurants, a folksy organic cafe, or a chic but informal restaurant located in a historic building. Have a glass of wine at a local vineyard or a glass of beer at a superb brew pub.

We think this is a romantic getaway that you’ll want to return to time and time again.

The Inn at Lonesome Hollow offers a completely private 160 acre setting in the beautiful Driftless Area of Southwest Wisconsin. If you have not seen our Driftless area and our Kickapoo Valley hills, you are in for a most pleasant surprise. Our landscape is one of continuous hills and valleys – a more rugged landscape than you have seen anywhere else in Wisconsin. The surrounding counties are rural and sparsely populated.

In this setting we offer our guests deluxe lodging options: three beautiful B&B rooms, a private, two-bedroom cabin, and two exceptional two-bedroom suites. All of our units have private baths and real gas fireplaces. Four of the units offer two-person whirlpool tubs. Full country breakfasts, winter hiking and snowshoeing, and memorable quiet time complete the enjoyment of a Lonesome Hollow holiday getaway.

Christmas lights on a snowy evening

Our Holiday Package is offered for two night stays between December 22 and January 10. This package includes a $25 dinner certificate at one of three local restaurants, complimentary wine and cheese at the B&B, a free gift from our gift case (up to $20 value), free use of snowshoes, and an evening bonfire with hot apple cider or hot chocolate.

We already have an abundance of snow and colder than normal temperatures. It’s looking like a white Christmas and New Year’s is in store for our area. This winter is shaping up to be similar to last winter, the kind of cold and snowy winters we remember from our childhood! Relive some old memories and create some new ones as well.

Treat yourself to a very reasonably priced holiday package this season. We will do everything possible to provide you with a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.
