About this property

Timber Coulee Creek in backyard, king size bed, grill on deck, large garage.

Get away for a restful stay at this scenic hidden gem of Vernon County. Timber Coulee Creek, a Class 1 trout stream, ripples right through the backyard. You will enjoy watching deer and turkey as they amble through the property. Bald eagles soar overhead and fish jump in the stream. Listen to the gurgle of the water flowing over the rocks and the music of the birds. Try your hand at fly fishing. Sit around the fire pit, roast marshmallows, watch the flames dance and the stars come out.
The space
The clean, cozy cottage will easily accommodate a single family or your favorite fishing buddies. Fully functional kitchen includes microwave, stove, fridge, dishwasher, coffee pot, Keurig, toaster, electric skillet, cooking kettles, pizza pan, utensils, plates, cups, flatware, to-go cups, coffee, k-cups, sugar, basic spices, oatmeal packets, and cooking oil.
There is a new gas grill on the porch just outside the kitchen to use at your convenience.
Open concept dining/living room features large windows overlooking the backyard creek, a dining table with 4 chairs, and comfy living room furniture.
The spacious master bedroom has a king size bed and large walk-in closet. A bathroom with full amenities and walk-in shower complete the main floor.
The walkout basement has a roomy lounge /play area with a futon, which can be used as a full size bed, and a desk for work or creativity. Patio doors provide easy access to the backyard fire pit and creek. A semi-private bedroom just off the lounge area has a queen size bed and an attached private half bath with sink and toilet. A washer and dryer are available for use in the utility room.
There is no TV. Wifi is your only access to the noisier world.
Guest access
You can park in the garage or in front of the garage.
Other things to note
*Constant outdoor supervision of young children is needed due to proximity of road and creek.
*Firewood is available for use in the fire pit.
*There are no checkout requirements. If you wish to take out the trash there is a bin in the garage you may place it in, but it’s not expected of you.
If it’s convenient for you to send me a quick message that you have checked out, I’d appreciate it!

Incredible Stay on the Timber Coulee

Spent three days fishing and this home was perfect in every way! Very comfortable, clean and perfect for relaxing after spending the day on the river. You can literally walk out of the house and go up or downstream for as many miles you want to hike.10 out of 10.

Fantastic Place to Stay!

Timber Creek Retreat is easily the best appointed VRBO we have stayed in and as my daughter said "Totally adorbs!" Location was great... We caught trout out back and in surrounding streams. Property was clean and well laid out and very relaxing and rejuvenating! Will stay here again, no question!

Peaceful location

Located right on a sleepy stream. Owner provided split and dried firewood, which was a big plus. Property was exceptionally clean and the Owner thought about all the small touches that make a stay enjoyable. Great communication and you can tell the Owners take pride in their property.

Serene getaway

You can't beat the peaceful location of this rental. From the babbling brook beside the house to the rolling hills surrounding the valley this place is postcard perfect. The house was very clean and all basic amenities are supplied. The fire pit complete with cut wood was an added bonus. We spend several days fly fishing for trout, and although are success was limited, it was an experience worth taking. 5*s, would stay again.

Trout fisherman's (and wife) Heaven

We were looking for comfort and accessibility (we are seniors) and this place was perfect and had all the amenities. Timber creek was right out the back door and the cottage was fully furnished and pristine. Every thing we needed was right there. Thank you for everything... We were so comfy. Pete and Patti

Driftless area visit

Lovely spot, clean, found it easily, host's communication was great. However, we did not know there was no cell phone coverage, and since we were waiting for an urgent medical call that could come at any time, we left early, the next morning. We couldn't afford to be out of cell phone coverage. Internet was fine, but the call was to come by cell phone.
