About the host

HI! I'm Sarah, lover of all things glamorous, historical, and full of soul. I’ve always been drawn to forgotten treasures and old places with stories to tell—whether that’s a dusty antique, a crumbling church, or a long-lost landmark waiting for new life.

My husband and I renovated an 1846 stagecoach stop into our home (yes, real stagecoaches once rolled by and I love to imagine brightly colored gypsy coach wagons rumbling right along beside them!) Our home renovation sparked a deep love for preserving the past! This 1867 country church is another piece of that dream—now lovingly restored to welcome fellow wanderers, dreamers, and kindred spirits!

My family & I travel the world whenever we can, soaking up inspiration and adventure—but my heart always finds its way back to the Mississippi River Bluffs of southwest Wisconsin. There’s something grounding and magical about this Driftless landscape, and I’m so excited to share a piece of it with you!

Why they chose this property

I drove by this sweet country church for years wondering what stories the walls had to share... when it was listed for sale, my family knew that saying 'No' to this project was not an option for me! ✨️☺️

What makes this property unique

Original beauty thruout, from the high arched windows, to the hardwood floors, to the forged bell in the tower which you can ring anytime thruout your stay!
