The Cheese-N-Bison Munchables store may be permanently closed. The statues are still on location: a large bison statue, a giant mouse, and a tiny cow. There used to be a bison herd within sight of the road, but for the last 4-5 years I have not seen a live bison on the property.

Iconic big mouse with a wheel o' cheese, plus a big bison, too -- outside Eichten's Cheese and Bison! Also, great sandwiches and other foodstuffs to eat-in or take-out to go (Two words: cheese curds).

They also have a bison statue in the field nearby their sign.

Eichten's Hidden Acres specializes in Cheese and Bison products. The large friendly-looking Eichten's mouse (roughly 12 ft. tall) munches a bite from its 5 ft. tall cheese wheel and beckons travelers to peruse the cheese and bison products arrayed inside their nearby store.
