Southwest, South-central and Southeastern Wisconsin form a diverse, rural mixture of majestic Mississippi River view properties, trout stream acreages, rolling farms, numerous State Natural Areas, and a vast beautiful countryside. Exploring the rugged Driftless Region of Southwestern WI on groomed horse or hiking trails is a unique experience. Area lakes, rivers, and trout streams provide excellent fishing and boating opportunities! Families can still enjoy vintage rural living here, as well as enjoy the economic benefits of the nearby city employment markets. From farmer’s markets to community festivals, southern WI is full of year around family fun. With the charm of small-town Wisconsin and the sophistication of Chicago, Milwaukee, Madison, and Dubuque nearby, one thing is certain – you don’t have to travel far to “get away.”
