West Salem, located in West Central Wisconsin along Interstate 90, is a charming village with a population of over 5,000. Known for its scenic beauty in the Coulee Region, the area is often referred to as "God's Country" due to its picturesque bluffs, valleys, and the nearby meandering La Crosse River.

Rich in history, West Salem was founded in 1851 by Thomas Leonard and is the hometown of Pulitzer Prize-winning author Hamlin Garland. Visitors can explore historic points of interest such as two octagon homes, Thomas Leonard's colonial-style residence, and the Hamlin Garland Homestead, offering a glimpse into the village's fascinating past.
