About the host
Hosted by Philip Kashian
Both Kay and myself are semi retired and moved to this farm close to four years ago. We refurbished the primary home; where we live and then tackled the gardens and repurposed what used to be the farm's milkhouse. We enjoy the company of others and meeting new people while at the same time we also respect privacy. We are especially proud of the gardens where our guests are always welcome to wander about.
Why they chose this property
The Rush River and our valley are at the north end of the "Driftless Area" It is an area in the upper Midwest that did not get covered by the last glaciers. Hence the rivers, streams and many valleys. It is a treasure that we feel compelled to take care of and nurture, as well as share with friends, family, and guests.
What makes this property unique
We have access to some of the best trout fishing in western Wisconsin. There are ample dining options in the area and great biking.
