Rock in the House is a small house under a hill where a giant rock smashed in the house. No one was hurt, but the lady who owned the house sold it to some entrepeneurs who now have made it a semi-major tourist attraction. For dollar you can get a personal tour of the house. There are also such oddities as a squished chainsaw and cans solidly stuck to a squished lawn chair. The place is right on the main street and close to the Mississippi River. A MUST SEE!!!

The Rock in the House has been on the attraction map since April 1995, when a 55-ton boulder broke loose and rolled into the Anderson family's master bedroom at 40 North Shore Drive. The name of the place is a friendly nod to Wisconsin neighbor House on the Rock.
