We have had a busy summer with guests! Going into our favorite few seasons at Le Chateau I wanted to give an update on some things happening!

Christmas Tree Tours ARE BACK in 2026. We took a minute in 2025 to reflect and reevaluate different parts of our sweet home. We are excited to be offering tours after taking a season off!

With this I also thought it would be fun to do one of the weekends as a Christmas High Tea - I am strictly gauging interest right now. If this is something you'd love to attend with family and friends I would love to provide this option during the holiday season.

I'd also love to bring another Murder Mystery Dinner to the Chateau again - pending interest. These have been such a hit in the past! We have been asked when our next one is!

More details to come! Any suggestions or ideas we would love to hear what the community wants to see and do at Le Chateau these holiday seasons!

Mike and I absolutely loved hosting these wonderful friends as they came in for a wedding! Every stay is unique and every stay has its purpose! We are happy to be a part of all of it! Thanks for choosing our bed and breakfast to stay!

Thank you to Adam Passineau for making sure Le Chateau 's driveway was plowed! My husband and our son was out digging all the inches we accumulated of snow and Adam was driving by with his plow! Thank you so much!

If you need your driveway done he was great to connect with and did a great job! 👏 pm me and I'll send his details!

When you come stay at Le Chateau, take a scenic 20-minute drive to the charming town of Sherry. It’s the perfect way to spend an afternoon—slow down, explore, and soak in a little small-town Wisconsin magic.

Once you arrive, you’ll be welcomed by locally owned businesses that thrive because of visitors like you. From friendly faces to the most delicious bakery treats, it’s the kind of stop that reminds you why supporting local matters.

And of course—no trip is complete without a visit to the area’s famous cheese factory 🧀

Fresh curds, classic Wisconsin flavor, and a whole lot of pride packed into one stop.

Check them out here and add it to your stay:

As we enter the last day of the year I want to celebrate the 136 years — and counting that this home and impactful space has had.

Built in 1889, this home was the first in the area to have electricity, a telephone, and working plumbing. From the very beginning, it was a place rooted in innovation, connection, and forward thinking.

But what has always mattered most isn’t just what’s inside the walls — it’s who fills them.

In 2025, this home continued to do what it has always done best: bring people together. Conversations, laughter, shared meals, quiet mornings, and meaningful moments — each guest adding another chapter to a story more than a century in the making.

Whether it was a guest stay, a special event, or a meaningful moment worth gathering for, being part of those experiences — and the impact they had on our family as well — is something we’re deeply grateful for.

As we close out this year, we’re incredibly thankful for everyone who walked through these doors and became part of this home’s living legacy.

And as we look ahead to 2026, we’re excited to welcome guests back once again.

136 years strong — and still welcoming what’s next.

Please be safe on New Years - We hope to see you soon!

✨ A little quiet online, a lot of life at home — and big things ahead ✨

September 30, 2025 wrapped up our year of bookings in 2025 — not because we didn’t want to welcome more guests, but because this season called us home.

With family trips and a full fall ahead, we chose to slow things down intentionally. October was spent traveling through Italy and Germany with our children, letting them see more than just one spot in the world, learning, exploring, and creating memories together.

Then in November, Rachael traveled to Miami, Florida for work and took our oldest to Disney for the very first time — a once-in-a-lifetime memory that will always hold a special place in our hearts.

You may have noticed we’ve been a little quiet here, too. The truth is moments were happening that weren’t being captured. Life was being lived fully, just off camera, and that time was something we’ll always be grateful for.

This house has always been built for memories — and for a while, it got to hold ours.

As the holidays surround us, we’re feeling incredibly grateful for every guest, every story shared here, and every moment this home has been part of. We hope this season brings you warmth, rest, and joy wherever you are celebrating.

Now, as 2026 approaches, we’re reopening our doors for stays, gatherings, and special events. Our website is up and running again, and the link can be found in the About section here on Facebook.

We cannot wait to fill this home again with laughter, connection, and new memories. We’re dreaming up exciting experiences, welcoming guests near and far, and opening the calendar with full hearts.

Here’s to a beautiful holiday season and an even brighter year ahead. We can’t wait to welcome you back.
