FROM MADCITYDREAMHOMES.COM: Known as the Troll Capital of the World, Mount Horeb is more than a Scandinavian tourist destination. As this village grows on the west side of Dane County, just a half hour from Madison, it has managed to retain its authentic and walkable downtown, small-town charm, and beautiful views of the Driftless Area.
More than 7,000 people and 250 businesses and organizations call this place home, and the energy has contributed to a strong downtown corridor. Historic buildings are being repurposed, and more businesses and housing developments are branching off of the “Trollway” and the five roundabouts on the east side of the village. This is the start of fulfillment of the Downtown Redevelopment Plan which the Village developed with the assistance of Vandewalle & Associates. The plan’s vision states: “The Village of Mount Horeb’s vision is to create a healthy mix of downtown business and residences (destination retail, food, beverage, service, entertainment, and single-family / multi-family housing) that will serve as a magnet for local residents and tourists/travelers.” Read the full post here.
