Welcome to Southwestern Wisconsin
With Fall colors in full swing and the beauty of Wisconsin’s Driftless Area practically unparalleled, Eric and Ana thought this would be a good time to pay a visit, Cabin style, to southwestern Wisconsin. Essentially pulling in everything south and west of I-90 to define the region, they cover a series of sights, towns, landmarks, parks, breweries, recreation hotspots, and more to inspire you for a trip to and through one of the most scenic - and sometimes overlooked - areas in the Midwest.
