About this property

Fly Fishing in the Driftless Region - Bishop Creek Cabin with a View

Bishop Creek Cabin, located in the Driftless region of Wisconsin in Vernon County, is an outdoor lover's paradise. Imagine a cabin, nestled into a hillside over-looking a spectacular river valley with large bluffs in every direction. This cozy Amish crafted cabin that was built in 2006 has been fully updated with new appliances, beds, bedding, bathroom and utilities. Located across the road, within 180 feet of Bishop Creek, a Class I Trout Stream, and ¾ of a mile from the West Fork Kickapoo River, one of Wisconsin's top 5 trout streams, makes this property the ideal location to catch the trout of a lifetime! In the mornings and evenings you can see the trout rising to the latest hatch. A variety of wildlife including whitetail deer, turkeys, and wood ducks are often viewed from the front porch. The cabin features a full kitchen, bathroom with walk-in shower, living room, and loft with sleeping areas. All of these great features make Bishop Creek Cabin your perfect Southwest Wisconsin getaway!

Meets all basic needs

Enjoyed “roughing it” in this small simple cabin for a weekend away with my daughter. The cabin provided all essential needs. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, which is hard to come by in most rentals. The smart TV worked flawlessly, which is also not often the case. Property manager graciously turned on the air conditioning unit for us prior to our arrival, which was greatly appreciated on a warm weekend, and there we ample fans to circulate the cooler air. Only opportunity would be to lend some attention to quality of cleanliness. The kitchen counter had hairballs and crumbs on it and the whole place could use a good vacuuming. But overall an adequate stay for our purposes while in Viroqua.

Great Little Cabin

This property was perfect for what my husband and I needed when visiting the Driftless Area for fishing. Air conditioner worked great, kitchen was well stocked and the view from the front porch is beautiful! Be sure to visit Liberty Bar jus down the road. One thing to note, the cabin is not far off the road so you can hear vehicles when they pass. This wasn't a problem for us, but it might be for someone who is looking for an off the grid experience.

Don’t Tell Others

I’d like to give my stay a bad review but I can’t. Everything was great! From the communication to the property to the fishing, couldn’t have been better. With that said, everyone stay away so I can plan my next trip there. LOL

Driftless Days

Bishop Creek Cabin was everything we could have hopes for in a rental. The perfect size for our trio, we never felt cramped despite the size of the space. In a perfect location to get to any fly fishing spot you would like, close enough to town that its not the end if the world if you need to run up for something. The best part is how little you do need to leave once you are set up. The hardest part was leaving our porch in the mornings to start our day, the view from the adirondack chairs could hold you for hours. Plus the fire pit to sit by at night and the charcoal grill to turn $10 walmart steaks into steakhouse quality NY Strips. The cabin still feels like a dream. Thanks to Evan and the family for offering it up to us for the week.

overall the place was great. But, I wanted to open windows for fresh air, when I did there were large creepy crawlies in the channels and they were very dirty. Looked like they had not been cleaned out in some time.

Wonderful stay

We so enjoyed our stay at this cabin- complete with a gorgeous view, cozy cabin with a smart use of the space/all the necessities, lots of outdoor time trout fishing, front porch sitting and evening campfires before bed. It was just what our sons needed as a summer adventure. Thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Evan Draeger

Host profile image
Evan and Jennifer both grew up in Wisconsin and met while in college at UW-La Crosse. There, they both fell in love with the bluffs and hills of Southwest Wisconsin. Shortly after getting married, they traveled Europe where they first discovered the brilliance of room and house rentals. They loved meeting locals and staying off the “beaten path.”

Why they chose this property

Evan and Jen purchased the property in July of 2017 after many trips back and forth to the Driftless Region in search of the perfect land they could enjoy as a family. After viewing the little Amish cabin and taking a couple strolls through the woods, they knew it was the idyllic location for sweet little family getaways. They appreciate all the great things the area has to offer such as hiking, canoeing the Kickapoo River, fishing, antiquing, great restaurants, organic farming, and harvest season festivities.

What makes this property unique

A setting like no other! Enjoying the coziness of our cabin while being able to witness nature at its best is priceless! Sitting on the deck is so relaxing, seeing the eagles soar over the cabin, and listening to the bubbling of Bishop Branch while having picnics is a true escape from reality and a tiny home away from home.
