About this house rental

The Guest House at Irish Ridge Farm is located at the end of a dead-end gravel road and offers a calm, peaceful setting to enjoy each other and the outdoors. Come experience life on a Minnesota farm nestled in the rolling hills of Winona County.

Enjoy the sunrise with a cup of tea or coffee on the covered front porch and an evening glass of wine in the 3 seasons room while you watch the deer graze. The property sits on 40 acres and offers spectacular ridgetop sunset and plenty of space to explore. The large yard area has a fire pit and is the perfect space to enjoy a game of bags or plan an outdoor picnic. Firewood is available onsite for purchase.

The 2,000 square foot home easily accommodates 8-10. There are 3 bedrooms, a 3 season room with a pull-out couch as well as a finished basement with a queen pull-out couch. We just added a queen air mattress that self-inflates and has a headboard. There is also a main floor laundry available to guests.

The Guest House offers ample seating to enjoy a meal, complete a puzzle or play a game with eat-in kitchen seating for 4, a dining table that seats 8, and a basement pub table that also seats 8.

You can relax and unwind in the various indoor living spaces. The main floor living room includes a cozy sectional couch and chair that are perfect for a quiet afternoon book or recapping your day's adventures. The lower level includes a couch with 2 reclining chairs and a smart TV. The 3-season porch has a comfortable sofa seating area and a farmhouse-style table.

Guests can expect a true country experience gathering farm fresh eggs when available, watching our herd of Angus cattle graze, and also observe the deer and other wildlife that call Irish Ridge home. The property is ideal for anyone looking to get away from the busy day-to-day life to relax and unwind. Families will enjoy the space to explore and interact with nature. There are any number of quaint local shops and restaurants just a short drive to Winona (14 miles) and LaCrosse (29 miles) making it an ideal choice for a short getaway.

Outdoor enthusiasts are sure to love our farm’s close proximity to Great River Bluffs State Park, a beautiful hiking location offering stunning views of the Coulee region’s famed bluffs along the Mississippi River. Biking enthusiasts will enjoy the Mississippi River Biking Trail, the nearby Root River Trail System. There are a number of trails with great hiking, skiing, and snowshoeing as well as close access to snowmobile trails.

Some additional recommended activities include taking in the amazing bluff top or river road drives (Apple Blossom Road, The Great Mississippi River Road). The Great River Road Wine Trail provides a fun adventure to various local wineries. Metz Dairy is a fun adventure for all ages. Within easy distance, you will find opportunities for fishing, birding, hiking, rock climbing, swimming, canoeing/kayaking, golfing, ice fishing, snowmobiling, ice skating, skiing, and sledding.

The area is also home to state-of-the-art facilities including the Children's Museum of LaCrosse and the Minnesota Marine Art Museum in Winona as well as the Minnesota Equestrian Center (10 miles). The area boasts wonderful local festivals in Winona, La Crescent, or La Crosse, including Riverfest, Oktoberfest, Winona Steamboat Days, Applefest, Great River Shakespeare Festival, and various music, dance, and film festivals offered throughout the year

This is a working farm and we raise our family next door to this property. We value the land, air, and water and ask that you do the same. As such, we have a strict no-smoking indoors or out policy and do not accept pets. Should you have any questions please reach out and we look forward to seeing you at the end of the dead end.

We went for a weekend birthday with sons and grandchildren. Unfortunately four of them couldn’t make the trip. The house was large with so much room. There would have been more than enough room for all of us. As it was, with just the four of us we didn’t even use the lower level. Everything was clean with a country flair that was inviting and cozy. We were sorry we had little time to hang out at the house as we had a schedule. The family dog was on the front porch when we arrived in the evening to welcome us. Perfect “happy you are here” touch. I recommend this place to everyone.
