Elegant country retreat near Spring Green w expansive views of Driftless Region

The Glass House of Spring Green is an architectural gem set along a ridge of native prairie grasses and oak woods, with an exceptional view of the Driftless Area hills. Built in 1984, it was enrolled in the Driftless Area Land Conservancy, assuring that its native landscape will be maintained in perpetuity. Its parklike setting assures a private, peaceful retreat.

Prairie plants and native trees dominate the 24 acres near the house and mowed paths give access for birding, botanizing, picnicking, snowshoeing and skiing. A large deck with ample seating faces the distant hills and vivid sunsets. Inside an extensive library offers reading for all tastes, from history and nature to fiction and photography.

A single story, 2,300 sq ft home, the 3 bedroom and 2 baths stretch along a hallway leading from the central space. A glass wall brings the outside in to the central space. The 3 bedrooms include 1 king, 1 queen and 1 twin bed set up, all with easy access to one of the 2 bathrooms. The kitchen is fully equipped to please even the best gourmet cook.

American Players Theatre, Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin, the Spring Green Art Fair and many music venues are within a 15 minute drive. The House on the Rock is less than a mile away and two golf courses are close by.

The easy-access layout includes ample parking and a large, walk-in tiled shower in the main bathroom. WiFi and Satellite TV service is reliable. The geothermal heating and cooling system is both comfortable and environmentally friendly year-round.

Perfect Retreat Setting – Beautiful and Well-Appointed
Our stay at the Glass House was nothing short of amazing! The property is stunning, with breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere that made it the perfect location for our retreat. The house is impeccably clean, beautifully designed, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Barbara, the host, was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always ready to assist with any questions or requests. She clearly puts great care into ensuring her guests have a memorable experience. We especially appreciated the spacious layout, which allowed for both quiet moments of reflection and lively group gatherings. The kitchen was well-equipped, making meal prep for our group a breeze. I can’t recommend the Glass House enough! Whether you’re looking for a peaceful getaway or a place to host a special gathering, this property exceeds expectations. We look forward to returning someday.

Awesome weekend for a reunion with friends
Spring Green was a great halfway point for meeting up with friends. Three couples shared this beautiful house for a low key weekend. This unique property had everything we were looking for. The house is well-maintained, was fully stocked (especially the kitchen), and offers a spacious layout. The setting is beautiful. Barbara was a wonderful host.

Lovely, quiet house and acreage
We ( three friends) really enjoyed our stay here. The house is comfortable and has everything we needed. The beds are comfortable and the house is spacious. We loved the many windows and the beautiful views. Drinking coffee on the deck in the morning and watching and listening to the plentiful birds was a treat. The house is convenient to Talesien and other Frank Lloyd Wright attractions. I highly recommend this place to stay!

Charming home with a beautiful country setting
My friends and I loved staying in this unique home in the countryside close to House on the Rocks and Taliesin. Its walls of glass doors allowed a wonderful view of the meadow and sunsets. The home was well stocked with kitchen, linens and bathroom amenities! We appreciated the helpful information left by the host.

APT weekend, almost
We booked in anticipation of seeing a couple of APT productions. The weekend was uncomfortably hot for outdoor theater. Fortunately, the Glass House was fantastic. A very comfortable, beautiful home located in a gorgeous setting. The view from the back deck was stunning . We hope to stay here again.

A beautiful and serene house and grounds.
We stayed June 28-80, 2024. Four adults all fit very comfortably in this spacious home. It is really stunning architecturally as well as the grounds and gardens. When at the house, we spent a lot of time on the deck looking into the valley and watching the many varieties of birds. The wildflowers and prairie were also really lovely. The house is appointed better than every short term rentals I have stayed in including kitchen items as well as entertainment (games, books, etc.) The internet worked very well. The home is very secluded but only 15 minutes from theater and 10 to Dodgeville making trips quite easy. We highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

A dream spot on the prairie
The home and land are absolutely beautiful and a MUST for prairie and conservation enthusiasts. The host was so lovely and thoughtful and you can really tell how much they care about the property and the experience their guests have there. The bird watching was great and they encourage you to note the species you see which connects you to the place and the other guests who have stayed there as well. It was so fun. We had such a quiet and peaceful stay. This is great for adults looking for a peaceful retreat with family or friends and for families with kiddos since there is always something new to observe and learn. I am looking forward to visiting again, we had such an amazing stay!

Grand views and a wonderful house!
Our stay on the property was amazing. The house was lovely, had tons of natural light and wonderfully decorated. We loved walking the trail and going through the library. We stayed in mid-May & the weather was moody, thankfully there were fun puzzles and games to occupy those rainy portions of the day. There was plenty of space available for storing luggage. The mattress in the master bedroom was firmer that what we are used to but wasn't uncomfortable. The experience overall is quite memorable, from the sunrises to the sunsets.
