Last night we braved the rain, twilight and deer season (trifecta!) because we had plans to try a new-to-us restaurant we’ve been hearing about: Branding Iron Roadhouse. Last night was fish fry (stupendous!) and we can’t wait to go back for wood-fired pizza and burgers. About 30 minutes from the farm (because what isn’t?!) in a small town called Lime Ridge this gem awaits. Small, unassuming space with top notch adult beverage selection, a cozy vibe and staff that make you feel like you are visiting your favorite aunt who invited you for dinner. Do it.

Unique space with killer and reasonably priced food and drinks. To-go items make everything convenient, too!

The best swimming hole we've found, yet. Lawn area, sandy beach area, swimming beach or an excellent place to launch your boat.

The story behind KVR is a sad one...8,000 acres of family farms purchased by the government due to repeated flooding concerns. Yet this space is a gem - a refuge for people and animals alike.

Follow these folks on social to learn of their special events happening during your visit to the Driftless. They offer year-round activities and delicious fare - but on their own schedule. This is an excellent venue for intimate concerts as well.
