Arcadian Cabin at Bishop Branch, creek-front, public land access, great location

The Arcadian Cabin at Bishop Branch Creek

Constructed in the summer of 2017, Arcadian Cabin’s location in the Driftless Area of Southwestern Wisconsin manifests a true park-like atmosphere. Both Crystal Creek and Bishop Branch Creek, are located steps off of the covered deck. The property (3+ acres) boasts a yard perfect for campfires (firewood provided), stargazing, lawn games, or just lounging and relaxing. Additionally, 58 acres of public land adjacent to the property is available for hiking, fishing, hunting, snowshoeing, bird watching, and other outdoor activities - no need to drive, these activities are all accessible on-site as soon as you walk out the front door.

At the end of the day, the 16’x28’ cabin which boasts an 18-foot tall ceiling in the main room will welcome you and up to five additional guests (sleeps six). The two bedrooms, bathroom, full kitchen, electric heat, bathtub and shower, electric appliances, Satellite TV, WiFi, a storage shed for your use, and many other features will make your stay enjoyable and stress-free.

The location of The Arcadian is ideal for any traveler’s needs. Viroqua, the county seat of Vernon County, is less than 5 miles away and has numerous shops, festivals, a challenging golf course, and high-quality restaurants available. In addition to the public land out the front door, the Kickapoo Valley Reserve is less than 10 minutes away - providing canoeing, hiking, hunting, fishing, and numerous other outdoor activities and well over 8,000 acres to roam.

We added a storage shed to the property where you can lock up some of your gear and dry out your waders. There are also yards games, the charcoal grill, a gas grill, and other items in the storage shed for your use.

Award-winning restaurants, Wonderstate Coffee, several wineries (Vernon Vineyards, Branches Winery), movie theater, seasonal farmer's market, minutes from Organic Valley and Go Macro headquarters, antique and specialty shops, and The Historic Temple Theatre are just a few of the local attractions just minutes from The Arcadian. The Mississippi River is 30 minutes away and larger towns like La Crosse and Madison are both easily accessible by State Highway 14.

Notes:
-The minimum age for cabin rental is 24 years of age. Exceptions may be considered on an individual basis, please contact us directly.

Wonderful adventure, sweet hosts
The hosts left a precious note and gift for my son and our family with hot cocoa and a little wooden fish. We had a wonderful time trail blazing all over the property, along the creek, and through the acreage of public land adjoining the property. Great find! Would book again!

Driftless Seclusion
Beautiful home and property. Sound of the running creek while relaxing outside was perfect. House contained all amenities needed for a relaxing, secluded break from the fast pace of everyday life.

Blessed
We feel blessed to have booked this VRBO. Jake & Becky were so great to work with and we loved the stay and the house. We ran into a snowstorm and they went above and beyond to accommodate our stay and were very communicative and understanding. The house itself was clean and cozy despite sub-zero temperatures. It could have been a disaster, but thanks to the great hosts we ended up having a blast

Wedding weekend
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cabin tucked in the woods. The hosts were so helpful and answered any questions we had promptly. The cabin is very well taken care of, clean and felt very safe. It is perfect for a cozy weekend away! I just wish we had more time to enjoy it.

Great weekend get-away!
We enjoyed our long weekend at the Arcadian Cabin! Our kids loved playing in the outdoor space, going into town for gelato and playing the cabin's board games. The loft may be challenging for younger kids, but our school age kids said it felt like a tree house. The gate at the top gave us peace of mind.
