If you’ve never stayed at one of the many vacation homes in the area you may be missing a great alternative to the big motels.  It all depends what you are looking for.  When we think of vacation homes we often think of  "high-end" real estate that many of us could never afford.  However, if you snoop around a bit you’ll find some wonderful little rural retreats and bed & breakfast inns all around the Wisconsin Dells area. and many are quite affordable  The newly opened Old Century Farm House is one nice example of a rural vacation home that offers real peace and quiet in the Wisconsin countryside while still being only minutes from Wisconsin Dells.

If you are looking for a bit of pampering while getting away from it all you should check out Antiques And Lace Bed & Breakfast. When I first went to Antiques and Lace to take some photographs I was floored by their classy themed rooms, artwork and general atmosphere.  Besides where else in the Wisconsin Dells area can you take a peddle boat out on a quiet country pond and feel like you have the world all to yourself?!
