The Nordic Nest was built on an adjacent lot next to the owner's property. The house is located in the country on a dead-end road. The house is tucked away with views of the surrounding woods. This is not a remote space as we do have a few neighbors on our road, it is a quiet quaint neighborhood.

Check out her channel and be inspired by her hundreds of DIY projects. We also have the Wi Dog Trot rental next to the Nordic Nest, if you have more people in your party and need more space for future bookings make sure to message me about a rate for both places!

About the host
Hosted by Joan
We absolutely love our country setting! This is our third short-term rental, and we take great joy in providing a unique space for visitors to enjoy our area and its local amenities. Joan is a UW Stout Hospitality Grad, and works in the hospitality field, teaching at a technical college, while John is a builder. We take immense pride in our property, ensuring it is clean and well-maintained for our guests. The fact that we have many repeat visitors suggests we are doing something right. While we are always happy to assist our guests with anything they might need, we also respect their privacy. We know you will enjoy your stay at the Nordic Nest!
Why they chose this property
The Nordic Nest was built as a separate guest house from the owner's property. It is located in the country on a dead-end road, tucked away with views of the surrounding woods. This is not a remote space, as we do have a few neighbors on our road, but it is a quiet, quaint neighborhood. We are also in a great location , 6 miles south of Menomonie & UW-Stout and the quaint town of Downsville is within a mile south of the property. You can hop on the Red Cedar Trail for a nice walk, bike ride or snow ski in the winter. The Nordic nest has a beautiful patio to enjoy the stars at night or your morning coffee. Birds & bunnies are plentiful!
What makes this property unique
The Nordic Nest was created by our daughter Stefani and her dad, as showcased on the YouTube channel HomewithStefani. Many of Stefani's DIY projects are featured in this Nordic-inspired home. You will find several items in our home that Stefani completed, including the large island, the bathroom vanity, the kitchen's concrete countertops, and the bedroom side tables. Stefani drew inspiration from our Scandinavian heritage, and her father and brother also contributed to the build. Additionally, our son crafted the beautiful live-edge epoxy desk and coffee table. The entire project was truly a family affair. We are happy to share the space with you!
