Whether you bring your own bikes or rent them you will have easy access to 100's of miles of scenic rail beds including several historic tunnels. For the motorcyclists we are part of the Driftless Region of hilly, winding country roads.

There are also canoeing and kayaking opportunities on several nearby waterways. The Mississippi River is just 30 minutes away with its majestic scenery and river boats.

We are also home to Fort McCoy, an active Army training base, complete with its museums. During the winter it also has a small skiing/tubing hill open to the public.

Beautiful home right in town. We liked the large screen porch out front. Huge yard, although we didn't have time to enjoy it with our schedule. Well stocked dishes and utensils. Close to shops and restaurants. We enjoyed the home and biking the Elroy Sparta trail.

Ooolllld home needs work

First impression wasn’t good. Outside needs work. 10” dandelions all over the lawn when we drove up to the property. Walked into the house and was greeted with a terrible odor of old home and not sure what else. Lighting is not good in key areas. Light over the stove doesn’t work. Disgustingly gross. The floors creek but I’m ok with that. Dead mouse in the garage can that was rotting was terrible. Found that out on checkout day. We did not go through a single garage bag besides that one on checkout day which tells me the cleaning is suspicious. The shower is moldy. There is only a 1.5 bath. The 1/2 bath is really small and barely useable. The main bathroom has a shower and a bath tub. The door for the shower doesn’t stay closed for showering. My 88 year old parents were with my family so they just rolled with the show. I think they loved the character of the place but they thought it was way overpriced for 2 days.. I loved the community amenities like local shopping and grocery. Only street parking if you have a larger vehicle. A small car is fine for the driveway. No local tv, only streaming for Netflix. Very disappointing stay.

The Knives Were Sharp

The knives were sharp, need I say more? That's the attention to detail which this property owner seems to put into the property. It was clean, tidy, and the things you want to be there are there (quality towels, decent kitchen stuff, etc.). HVAC was great. No noise comes in from outside as the building construction is incredibly solid. Thank you!

For the past three years we have been gathering at this home to renew old friendships and make new memories. The home is very comfortable and after our first visit we all said “let’s do this again!” It is a quiet little town and a very accommodating host. We shall return I highly recommend this VRBO.

Close to bike trail

We selected this property so we could ride directly to the Sparta-Elroy bike trail. It is a nice prairie style house with beautiful wood accents and fully stocked with cooking accessories and serving dinner ware. The house was surface-clean but kinda dirty in the corners, etc. The only akward thing was that there are no blinds on the windows and that beautiful dining room shines brightly from the street of a very busy corner. Makes you feel like you’re sitting in a storefront. The neighborhood is very small town Wisconsin with a struggling economy. One diner in town for breakfast but not a lot else. There are, however with really nice places for dinner a 30-minute drive away in LaCrosse. The bike trail was great- we rode 20 miles one way one day and 30 to Elroy the other and crossed through one of the iconic tunnels. Lots of other outdoor options near LaCrosse.

Good place to Regroup

We came to Sparta to bike the Elroy/Sparta trail. We enjoyed our time in this spacious house. It was clean, beds were comfy and the kitchen has everything needed to cook a meal. There is a bit of traffic noise both on the front porch and during the night. I would recommend bringing a fan or air purifier to drown it out for sleeping.

This was our second visit. We came to do the Sparta/Elroy bike tunnels. We had a great time walking through the long tunnel and coming out into a pouring rain. Came back to a hot shower, good dinner and a fantastic family game of "Pictionary". We'd planned an outdoor fire, but it was raining. What a great place. There was everything there for a family group.
