Update-Classes on Making Arts and Crafts Furniture-closed for now

I was reading the other day about a school in Wisconsin that helps you make your very own rustic arts and crafts furniture from forest materials.    Maybe I'm an arts and crafts fanatic, but how fun it would be to make your very own ladderback twig chair!  Plus, according to the teacher, 90% of the students are women, and no woodworking experience is needed.  The classes are for anyone sixteen and over.   Every Friday (except holidays) they offer a furniture making class.  This sounds so much fun, I'm ready to pack my bags and book a flight, just in time for the beauty of the fall leaves.  They also offer other classes in cross-country skiing, mountain biking, and wilderness survival.

 Arts and crafts furniture can also be purchased at Lottos Log Cabin.  There is also a lakeside vacation rental on the same property if you want to take classes but live in another state.  The area sounds gorgeous, especially since I love fall in the midwest.  The house and cabin are next to acres of public woodland.   The contact information:

August 20, 2013 Update:  I got a call from Sandy, who runs Lottos Log Cabin Outdoor School and she let me know that she recently accepted a position at the local college, so for now she is not teaching classes.  Therefore, Lottos Log Cabin Outdoor School is closed.
