Cottage Grove

Cottage Grove is a small friendly town conveniently located between Interstate 90 and Highways 12 and 18, yet just five minutes from Madison's vibrant East side and 10 minutes from the regional airport. Cottage Grove enjoys both its small town atmosphere as well as its proximity to the cultural and and economic mecca that is Madison. With many home businesses and farmsteads, Cottage Grove is a diverse community that has continued to flourish since it was established as a township back in 1834.

Cottage Grove real estate

The region offers every kind of home and setting to be found in Dane County: farms and farmettes, wetlands, rural subdivisions, isolated single-family residences, and country retreats. You'll find modern split-level ranches mixed in with pre-War bungalows and century-old farmhouses. Available development land means a good availability of affordable single-family homes.

Visitors to Firemen's Park will find the western trailhead for the Glacial Drumlin State Trail. One of the state's oldest rails-to-trails linear hiking and biking parks, the trail winds through low rounded hills and drumlins and eastward for more than 50 miles where it connects with the Fox River Sanctuary near Waukesha. While true lakeside living isn't possible, there are plenty of nearby lakes and rivers for fishing and boating enthusiasts. Snowmobilers enjoy miles of maintained farmland trails in winter.

Locating Cottage Grove

When people in Madison talk about Cottage Grove, they're probably referring to both the Village and the Town although where the Village (pop. 6,250) ends and the Town begins is best known to surveyors and map-makers rather than Cottage Grove's residents. East of I-39/90 and sandwiched between I-94 and US 12/18, Cottage Grove's growth amidst cornfields and dairy pastures has blurred the distinction, so much so that talks are underway with plans to merge the two municipalities.

Welcome to the Village of Cottage Grove, a great place to live, work, do business and play! Situated conveniently between the major transportation routes of Interstate 90/94 and Highways 12/18 and only minutes from Madison's East Side and the Dane County Regional Airport, Cottage Grove enjoys the benefits of small town Wisconsin, as well as the metropolitan culture and advantages of nearby Madison. Let us show you around Cottage Grove. We think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Cottage Grove industry & business

Considering Cottage Grove's location and growth, it's no surprise most of its who work commute to Madison. That isn't to say there's a shortage of businesses in or near town as Madison's East Side is home to some of the area's largest and oldest. The recent growth of warehouse and shipping centers arises from convenient access to major transportation routes. Leading employment sectors include government, healthcare, education, and retail. Frequent business travelers like its proximity to Dane County Airport, minus the landing-pattern noise.

Cottage Grove schools

Children in the Village of Cottage Grove attend schools in the Monona Grove School District, as do the majority of students in the Town. However, some in more rural areas attend schools in the Deerfield, Sun Prairie, Marshall, Stoughton and McFarland school districts.
