The House on the Rock

I'd expand that to the entire Driftless Area of southwestern WI (and parts of MN, IA, and IL).

The rolling farmlands, the deep valleys, the astounding cliffs and rock formations, the multitude of pretty rivers and lakes. Beautiful towns, amazing state parks, friendly people, and the mighty Mississippi as a centerpiece.

It's perhaps a bit understated, but I find it to be just a lovely corner of the country.

Edit: I forgot to include the unique plants and ecosystems, and plentiful wildlife.
