Such a lovely hidden gem! We came here on a birthday getaway for my husband and it was everything we hoped and more: incredibly quiet, trout fishing in the stream, lovely hikes on the trails, and SO PEACEFUL. Barry’s communication was prompt and clear, and the cabin was clean and well stocked. We especially loved nights around the campfire and swimming in the creek. 10/10 would recommend if you need a beautiful place to unwind and recharge.

This is a little spot of heaven here on earth. I think we are going on 8th year staying here and have already booked again for next year. Great outdoor spot along the creek with walking trail, great fishing and an awesome fire pit for nighttime family gatherings.

Our family of 5 stayed here for 2 nights. Upon our arrival Barry met us and had already started a fire in the serene firepit area looking out at the creek. The property was manicured beautifully with mowed walking trails that you could tell were just cut. Everything about this place was perfect for our family- very clean and well stocked with essentials. We enjoyed fishing and watching for wildlife on the property and canoed/kayaked down the Kickapoo River nearby. The views were stunning! We can’t wait to plan another trip back to this wonderful retreat!

We fly-fished the stream, built fires every night under stars, enjoyed the early morning mist and appreciated meeting Barry, who is a great and accommodating host. The cabin suited us perfectly, comfortably, and was just far enough away from but accessible to La Farge and Viroqua. Loved it!

Wonderful Stay!

Had a great time at this place even though the temperatures were in the upper 90's. The creek was refreshing for a dip. The property is really nice, well taken care of and has lots to do. Definitely a place I would recommend to others!

Once again we had a fantastic stay at the Bear Creek Retreat. This has been an annual reunion for our family to trout fish, explore the driftless, and spend time together. Thank you Barry for sharing your special retreat. The place was perfect with plenty of comfortable beds, outdoor fireplace and plenty of firewood, and ample space to spread out and relax.
