There are a lot of ways to explore Wisconsin’s rich dairy heritage – you can enjoy a creamy ice cream cone, tour a working cheese factory, or take a scenic drive through farm country. But for a cheesy getaway you won’t forget, head to the little town of Paoli. Here, you can actually spend the night in historic cheese factory and it’s a unique Wisconsin hotel you won’t forget. Here’s why you need to check into the Seven Acre Dairy Company.
This unique lodging property is located in an unexpected place – the unincorporated community of Paoli. It’s a little crossroads community in the Dane County town of Montrose.

For decades, this little town was home to a working cheese factory. In 1888, a group of local dairy farmers built a factory on the Sugar River and they produced award-winning Swiss cheese and butter.

While the factory closed its doors in 1980, a dairy enterprise would one day return to this little factory. The new business celebrates the past while offering the best of today.

A bit of the dairy industry has also returned to the enterprise. Landmark Creamery produces artisan butter and soft serve ice cream in a micro dairy plant. The products are available at the hotel and they are a big hit!
