Dalsoren house and the surrounding property was a perfect place for us nature lovers. We saw bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, red-headed woodpeckers and several songbirds. At night, while sitting around the campfire, we heard the calls of great-horned owls and coyotes. The stars were plentiful and the air fresh.
We walked the paths through the fields around the woods and helpful maps were provided. An impressive binder of information about the house and property included lists of birds and plants found on the property.
The house was clean, quiet, and the beds and sheets comfortable. There is one bathroom located downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. The natural wood and stained glass windows gave a wonderfully warm ambiance to the house. There’s no dishwasher but there is a washer and dryer.
The water from the well tasted amazing.
Since that area of WI has spotty cell service and signal strength, it kept us from constantly staring at our phones or watching TV, giving us no excuse to not enjoy the beautiful outdoors, or playing games and puzzles indoors—of which many were provided. Though there are DVDs, our stay was delightfully reminiscent of the pre digital era and was a great way to unplug from 24/7 negative news cycles. This might not appeal to those who can’t live without these features, but for those like us, it was a healthy getaway both mentally and physically.
Our host, Thea, was extremely pleasant and accommodating to our every need.
We hope to stay here again!
