Historic District, Charming Cottage, Sleeps 10 | House in Mineral Point
3 Bedroom House in Mineral Point
Nestled on 1.3 acres, on Wisconsin’s oldest street, a home away from home awaits you. Use the house as a base to explore the beauty of the Driftless area, the vibrant energy of Mineral Point, or simply relax at home, reading, writing, cooking, napping and decompressing.
The house has been updated with modern conveniences but retains its old-world charm and elegance. A well equipped kitchen, super-comfy beds, and lots of natural light, make this perfect for a romantic getaway or family vacation. The 1700 sq ft house is a stones throw from a park with tennis and pickle ball courts and an amazing outdoor pool. It is a short walk (4-5minutes) to the Shakerag Alley Arts Center and the main High Street. Short hikes can be had within Mineral Point by climbing Merry Christmas hill. Close by places to visit include: House on the Rock, Governor Dodge State Park, Spring Green, American Players Theatre and more.
You can access all areas of the house and gardens, feel free to wander the wooded trails in the back and sit fireside at night under a canopy of stars! I am available for check in and check out as needed, I can also give an overview of Mineral Point, if you’d like. I can also leave you alone if you’d prefer privacy.
Folks 'round town say the letters MP don’t just stand for Mineral Point, but are also code for Magical Place! And they are right, Mineral Point is where Wisconsin first began, steeped in a rich history it is now home to 60+ artists many of whom have galleries right on and around the main High Street. Modeled after the small villages of Cornwall, England you’ll feel at once at home, yet also transported back in time. You’ll be enchanted by the vibrant, creative community you’ll find and the incredible buzzing energy you’ll feel. Many people have come for a weekend or short visit only to fall under the magical spell, and return (sometimes years later, sometimes just in a matter of weeks!) to make Mineral Point their permanent home. Come and find your magical place in our great Mineral Point story! You can easily walk into the nearby high street or drive (2 minute drive). Parking at the house: there is ample on street parking
Work retreat: We’ve hosted several ‘work retreats’ during the week for people who want to escape the city and their office - message me for discounted rates when you book 4 consecutive nights, Monday to Thursday.
All Children: We welcome children staying at the house, a few simple toys and picture books are provided for their enjoyment, located on the lower shelves in the main lounge. Small children: Also, if needed there is a pack and play, and a high chair for a baby/toddler can be provided (Svan brand, wooden chair with tray and safety straps), please let me know 1 day ahead of arrival if you’d like to use it.
Floor plan: The upstairs bedroom has two twins and one full bed in it (As shown in the photos). Access to the upstairs bedroom is through one of the main floor bedrooms, via narrow stairs. This floor plan works best for friends and family groups who know each other already.
Exterior Steps: Mineral Point is a hilly place and like much of the lodging in Mineral Point there are exterior steps up to the house. This house is not a new build: the house dates back to the 1920’s and descendants of the original owners live close by. The house is welcoming, comfortable, and has lots of original features and charm. But it’s not perfect, if you are looking for an all modern experience this is not the Cottage for you.
