Serenity awaits at this secluded riverfront property

**new for 2024: renovated lower level includes an additional full bath with tub & shower, guest laundry access and second living room with smart tv. The walkout basement allows easy access to the lower lawn and beautiful river views.

This recently updated 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is perfect for your next getaway. Sitting on a large lot with 333 feet of river frontage, our home boasts a vast yard with relaxing outdoor space and wide open living area.

LIVING AREAS
The large, fully furnished eat-in kitchen with a peninsula is the perfect gathering space. Whip up your favorite recipes in the gourmet kitchen, equipped with sparkling solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a table for six. Unwind in the living area, where a large sofa and reclining chair surround a smart TV. The large picture window fills the space with natural light and offers unobstructed river views. The lower level features a second living room with a couch, reclining sofa and smart tv for more space to relax and unwind. The sliding patio door allows easy access to the lower lawn and picturesque river views.

BEDROOMS & BATH
Two bedrooms feature king size beds, while the third bedroom is a queen size bed. The upstairs full bath contains a large tiled shower. The lower level includes a second full bath with large tub/shower.

OUTDOOR AREA
Gather on the screened in porch, featuring a dining table for six and additional seating for relaxation and conversation. Cook dinner on the gas grill located on the deck and dine overlooking the water.

The home is conveniently located 1 mile from the Almar Acre boat landing for launch in the Wisconsin River. Tie your boat up at the house for easy river access. Plenty of parking at the house for your boat trailer. Note: Swimming in the Wisconsin River is not advised due to the swift currents. We recommend life jackets while near the shore and in the water.

LOCAL TO DO’S
Visit Spring Green (20mi) to see a play at American Players Theatre, visit historic Frank Lloyd Wright's home, Taliesin or visit the unique House on the Rock attraction. The House on the Rock Resort also features 27 holes of championship golf.

Wild Hills Winery is a premier artisanal winery, cidery, farm, and orchard nestled among the rugged beauty of the Driftless region of Wisconsin and is just a short 3 mi drive.

Outdoor lovers can find numerous waterways to canoe or kayak and enjoy the gorgeous scenery. The Pine River Trail in Richland Center is a 14.3-mile trail that’s laid on an abandoned rail bed, and gives riders a chance to enjoy the beauty of 250-foot river bluffs without having to ride over them.

Bring your UTV/ATV to explore the gorgeous countryside. 13 townships in Richland County have opened their roads for use. This allows for many different route options and you can even venture to neighboring counties and towns. Plenty of parking at the house for UTV trailers.

You can also explore the quaint shops and eateries in the surrounding small villages all while enjoying the beautiful rolling hills of the Driftless region.

Beautiful Riverfront Retreat
We had an amazing stay at this beautifully located property right on the river. The unobstructed view of the river provided a perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The house itself was super clean and well-maintained, exceeding our expectations. There were lots of amenities—everything you can think of! All you need to pack is your food, drink, and clothing. The screened-in porch is extra special, especially during the summer to keep the bugs and mosquitoes out. Accessing the property was easy, thanks to clear instructions and a seamless check-in process. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and picturesque escape.

Our Second Stay at the River House
This was the second time that our family stayed at the River House, and our experience was just as pleasant as our first visit a year ago. The weather was warmer during this stay, so we were able to spend more time relaxing in the porch and cooking on the grill. As many people have noted here, the views of the river are amazing and very relaxing. The newly finished lower level and second bathroom make the house an even better choice for family vacations. The house is nicely located near Taliesin, the American Players Theater, supper clubs, and many outdoor recreation options. It is a beautiful house, and we enjoyed our second stay. Highly recommended!

Riverview
One of the few properties on the lower Wisconsin river with a mostly unobstructed view. Nice house. Plenty of space. But it's the screened in porch with that view that are the real stars.

Perfect riverfront getaway
My partner and I spent a long weekend here and completely enjoyed ourselves. The house is serene and perfectly tidy. We spent a lot of time on the screened-in porch watching birds on the water. This property is also a great home base for exploring other interesting towns in the area: Boscobel, Viroqua, Spring Green, etc. We will definitely be back!

Great week on the river!
We loved our week at the River House; the home was spotless and check-in/out was a breeze. There are views from the kitchen, living room, and our favorite, the screened-in porch. The house is separated from Highway 60 by woods, and there is plenty of room for kids to run around safely. Very pleasant and relaxing to enjoy the river. We enjoyed the cheese from Meister in Muscoda, APT in Spring Green, the House on the Rock, canoeing on the river, biking on the Elroy-Sparta trail, and a visit to Wyalusing State Park on the Mississippi. There is a grill with a natural gas line that was fantastic to make dinners. Since there's noise from the highway (and a plant in Muscoda at night), it's not completely silent, but it's a beautiful and relaxing spot. Make sure to stock up on items at the grocery in Muscoda if you're going to be cooking. There are lots of games for families and a smart tv. Although the best rainy day activity is just enjoying the view! Can't recommend the Orion River House enough.
