Our Story

Our names are Chris and Anna. We met a long time ago over a bottle of champagne (actually over two bottles of champagne but who is counting). Chris was the waiter and Anna was the customer at a St Croix Valley restaurant on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Chris sparked up a conversation, we then exchanged phone numbers, and fast forward to a couple of kids later – we are now buying 65 acres of land that includes a tremendous bog in Pepin, WI. All this in an attempt to make our dream of running a hospitality business come true.

We have come together from different backgrounds, mentalities, and cultures but there are many things that we enjoy together – traveling, hosting, making something our own, design and living in constant motion. In other words, being content or still is hard for us.

In full disclosure, we have never engaged in any social media outlets in the past so please be patient with us as we learn how to navigate through it as we share our journey. The blog will be dedicated to us building our business and will provide a glimpse into our lives. We promise to be honest, transparent, and positively funny because life is a journey, relationships are hard, and laughing is contagious.
