For years, the stately brick building welcomed travelers in the west central town of Woodville. Memories at the Depot was a railroad hotel and while it’s no longer catering to rail passengers, it’s now a rental home that offers historic accommodations that are big enough for a large group. The house is located in a town with a rich Norwegian history, and it’s an easy drive from locations in western Wisconsin. Here’s why you need to plan a getaway to this special home.

Woodville, population 1,300, is a village in St. Croix County that was once a logging town called Kelly’s Switch – named after a local mill owner. In 1874 its name was changed to Woodville, after a little hamlet in New York. It has a rich Norwegian history that’s celebrated each May when the village celebrates Syttende Mai, Norway's Independence Day.

The town is roughly between Eau Claire and the Twin Cities of Minnesota and has long been a rest stop for travelers. In 1889, a red brick building was built to serve as a railroad hotel depot.
