Our ranch sits on 80 acres bordering the Kettle Moraine Forest with a trail head just outside the driveway. Our ranch is home to many horses, chickens, cats, and our lab Oakley. We purchased the property 20 years ago following a passion for horse training and riding and hope to share that with you during your stay! The guest space is the lower level of our newly remodeled farmhouse that retains the character of the 1875 homestead with modern amenities, private rooms, and wrap around porch. This listing is for reserving the White room, a single bedroom for 2 people and shared bathroom with the Turquoise Room. These two bedrooms and the shared bathroom are located on the first floor, separate from the rest of the house. For those who would like more privacy you are able to rent both bedrooms which can then provide you with a private bathroom. For the listing of the downstairs bedrooms, the White and Turquoise rooms, at a discounted price, please search "Paluso Guest Ranch - First Floor" in the search bar. The Ranch house has a total of five bedrooms and three baths. Every reservation during summer months is a two day minimum except for the White room (this listing) and the Turquoise room (also on the first floor). The lower level has been totally remodeled with all modern amenities including a spa bath with three shower heads and steam room function located in the downstairs bathroom. Each room is your PRIVATE space yet the kitchen, living area, and indoor and outdoor entertainment spaces could possibly be SHARED with other guests. The first floor rooms (the White and Turquoise Rooms) have access to the wrap around porch, with views of the pasture, perfect to enjoy a morning coffee. Both rooms have queen Sleep Number beds, smart TVs, ceiling fans, and a dresser/closet for storage. The indoor entertainment space includes dining tables, full bar (byob), and pool and poker table with easy access to the large outdoor patio and fire pit. These are all shared spaces. Enjoy the company of our farm dog, Oakley, cats, and chickens during your stay. Talk to Bob, the owner, about a trail ride or horseback riding lessons!

We ask that you please be mindful of the animals and equipment around the ranch, especially with children, for your safety. Our property sits adjacent to the Kettle Moraine State Forest, featuring miles of hiking, biking, snowmobiling, and horseback riding trails. A creek runs just a minutes walk from the property with a picnic area that sits just off the trails. Mauthe and Long lakes are less than a 10 minutes drive away and are great for fishing, boating, kayaking, or a day on the beach (a WI state park fee is required for access to these lakes). Kewaskum, WI is a known as the “gateway to the Kettle Moraine State Forest” located along the banks of the Milwaukee River. It offers an active main street and is home to Sunburst ski hill, a family park, and our favorite “Coffee Corner Bistro”. Kewaskum also features the intersection of multiple state trails, including the National Ice Age Trail, the Eisenbahn trail, and the Kettle Moraine trail system. The National Ice Age Trail is easily accessible and showcases how this beautiful landscape and forest were formed.
