Fantastic home. Stayed for 3 nights as a little weekend getaway. Close to Taliesin and House on the Rock, which we toured both, ate at Anita’s cafe and Arthur’s Supper Club in Spring Green just 15 minutes away. The Depot offered a quiet retreat to get some peace. Thanks for the hospitality.

Gotham Depot

This is my 4th stay at the Depot. It is clean, charming, cozy, quiet, and historic. And, only 20 minutes from APT, so easy access to your favorite production. The hosts are attentive and kind. It's always a pleasure!

Cozy Couple Getaway

A very cute, cozy, lovely little cottage. The inside is really nice, the outside is worn but it is an old building. A nice mix of old with a touch or modern convenience of electricity and plumbing. We would stay here again if coming back to this area.

Charming Cottage, Excellent Escape

We were very impressed with the charm and beautify on the interior of this jewel. We wanted to escape for the weekend, and this place was perfect. Quiet, and so well decorated that we just didn't want to leave. The trail adjacent to the property was easy to walk and quiet as well. Our first thought when we walked into the place was "we want to guy this". It's such a lovely stay.

Cottage Retreat

My third stay at the lovely, comfortable, welcoming, and very charming Gotham Depot. We come for the APT performances, and then enjoy cooking up wonderful meals at the cottage, and finishing the evening around the firepit with long of fireside chats!! The cottage is spacious, yet cozy. Highly recommended. Hosts are very accessible and gracious. Thanks for making this great spot available for visitors!
