Check the calendar to plan your 2023 stay in the country with us at Akey Valley.
Akey Valley, LLC. is a vacation rental home located in scenic Richland County in southwest Wisconsin. Join us in the country!
The Akey Valley farmhouse is over 140+ years old. The original house was built in 1879 with an addition built in 1980 (ish).
The home is fully furnished and sleeps 12 comfortably with 6 bedrooms (five bedrooms upstairs and one on the main level) and plenty of space available for air mattresses. The house has a large remodeled kitchen, a sitting parlor room, dinning room, two bathrooms both on the main level and a large great room. Make yourself at home for the week or weekend.
Akey Valley is a family affair, we are not part of a property management company, resort or hotel chain looking to make tons of money off our rental. Dennis and Angie own the property and are active in the farm operation. They are just taking over the rental management from Eric & Amy, Angie's sister. Their son Ethan does the lawn moving. Angie's mom, Marilynn, does the laundry. It is a working farm and the cows in the pasture and the tractors in the barn belong to Angie's parents. At Akey Valley, we want people to experience and enjoy time in the country.
The home includes a living room, dining room, sitting room, and two bathrooms both on the main level (there are NO bathrooms upstairs). The large fully equipped kitchen was remodeled in 2012. It has a wall oven, electronic cook top, oversized refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker and other small appliances like waffle maker, toaster, popcorn maker, blender and a tabletop George Forman grill. All cooking utensils, silverware and dishware are included. Guests will need to bring in and prepare their own food. All bed linens and towels are provided.
We offer great accommodations but please know it is NOT new construction. The main floor has central air but there is no AC (for summer) or heating (for winter) to the upstairs. For the summer, we have box fans in every room with large windows. In the fall, we have big comforters to keep cozy. We close the farmhouse during the winter.
The house also includes a 26x26 great room addition that’s perfect for gatherings or activities with a larger group! We installed Wi-Fi at the house in October 2014. It has worked well for guests but know it's not super fast (we would not advise streaming movies). Some things we don't have: cable or dish network (we do have a TV with local channels). Cell phone service can be spotty - it works for some and not for others. We hope our guests enjoy the beautiful scenery of the driftless region and have a time to sit back, relax and truly get away.
There are so many things to do in southwest Wisconsin and the driftless area. Enjoy Frank Lloyd Wright destinations like House on the Rock and Taliesin, along with the outdoor American Players Theater and great golf at The House on the Rock Golf Resort in Spring Green (only 15 minutes away).
Enjoy fishing? Richland County alone has over 270 miles of class I and class II trout stream. Along with the Wisconsin River and nearby fisheries, this area is the ultimate getaway. Within a 20 minutes drive, enjoy the Wisconsin River, Willow Creek, Bear Creek, Whitemound Lake, Ash Creek, Melancthon Creek and Mill Creek.

Summary: We had a wonderful time at the Akey house! We were attending a family reunion down the road and this was incredibly convenient - we could even walk there. The house was very roomy with huge bedrooms. There were 9 of us and we could hang out in the kitchen and dining room. It was quiet and a very pleasant place to stay. Thank you!

Summary: This was our fourth stay at the Akey House. It is a fine place for a family gathering; we had five adults and two dogs. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch watching deer, listening to birds and coyotes, reading and just relaxing. The house is ideal location for those who wish to canoe, hike, and bicycle. It is modern (kitchen is great) yet retains that old-time feel in the dining room, porch, parlor and bedrooms. Very comfortable for large or small gatherings.

Summary: This place was extremely well kept, and all information presented accurately. We were there in Nov. - While there was no heat upstairs, still very comfortable with the transfer vents, never felt too warm downstairs. The large group dining/gathering room is fantastic for larger groups (we had 11 in our group). Plenty of blankets and additional places to sleep (comfortable couches). The had EVERYTHING you could possible need - and everything was clearly labeled. The surrounding land is beautiful - just a true gem for someone looking for a true historic spot to rest. Thank you Amy & Eric!

Summary: Our group very much enjoyed the house. The working cattle farm was great to watch. We enjoyed the bike paths that were close by. We did some board games in the evening. The kitchen was well supplied with equipment. T

Summary: Three families (6 adults + 7 kids ages 8-13 yrs) stayed here and we had plenty of space. The property had even more amenities than listed. We were welcomed by cows in the pasture and local cheeses in the fridge. The kids had so much fun running around the property and having campfires that they asked if we could live there forever. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfortable, and the owners were responsive and easy to get ahold of. Next time we have a family reunion, we will definitely stay here again!

Summary: When we walked into the house, we were happy to see that some of the vintage charm has been preserved. It was nice having a remodeled kitchen, though. It seemed like the house was more than a typical farm house. However, it achieved a feeling like living on a farm. It sits on a quiet road away from loud traffic. We spent time sitting on the front porch and watching the cows roam in the back yard. It was very quiet and real, perfect for a relaxing vacation. Even though there was a lot of room in this house, my husband and I want to return someday.

Summary: Akey Valley is excellent! It is spectacularly roomie, gorgeous, historic, and has all the modern conveniences! Additionally, it is set in one of the most beautiful parts of the state - stunning views from every window & close to beautiful parks (Devil's Lake, Governor Dodge, and Wyalusing) Amy & Eric are excellent hosts! Akey Valley was ideal for our extended family.

Summary: We really enjoyed this spacious old farm house, with many modern amenities. So much room, so much character and so very very interesting. The hosts were easy to communicate with, accommodating - Lori's dad especially was an all around pleasant and inviting guy. He dropped by the first day to make sure we got settled in okay, answered all our questions and then left us to ourselves.... well mostly - except that we begged him to come back and show us the old school house across the street, which he was more than willing to do :). For anyone who loves the bucolic serenity of the Driftless region, needs space for a group and wants to bring their dog along for the journey, I couldn't imagine a finer place than this one. For the number of people this old house is fit to accommodate, and the fact that they allow pets, it is AMAZINGLY pristine. The owners clearly either go to great lengths to keep it in good repair or they're selective with who they choose to rent to... or perhaps both! We'll certainly be looking for a reason to go back very soon! Thanks so much!
