Frank Lloyd Wright’s ‘Little Private Club’ Ready for Its Worldwide Closeup with Netflix Series Return
TWO RIVERS, WISC. (SEPT. 14, 2021) — With today’s Season 2 premiere of the popular Netflix program “The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals,” viewers around the world will be treated to a virtual tour of the home architect Frank Lloyd Wright described as “a little private club” with “special privacies, ultra conveniences and style all the while.” Still Bend / The Bernard & Fern Schwartz House appears in episode No. 1.
“We’re thrilled to share Still Bend with people who may not understand they can enjoy a Wright-designed home the way the architect intended,” said co-owner Michael Ditmer. “Whether they’re here for a few days or two weeks, they’ll experience Wright’s genius in a way the typical tour cannot provide.
“Wright’s brilliance can only be fully experienced by living in one of his creations. There is something magical, almost spiritual, about being in a Wright-designed space that leaves one transformed.”

About Still Bend / The Bernard & Fern Schwartz House
Still Bend / The Bernard & Fern Schwartz House is the built version of a home that architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed for a September 1938 edition of “Life” magazine. The four-bedroom home with two full baths and two half-baths is in Two Rivers, Wisconsin, on the banks of the East Twin River.
Still Bend epitomizes Wright’s midcentury Usonian design principles and his vision of architect-designed homes that would be affordable to America’s emergent middle class. It has been available for vacation rentals since 2004. Availability and more information about the house, including the public tour schedule, are available at stillbend.com.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Netflix published a Season 2 trailer on YouTube. Still Bend is featured with an aerial shot at 0:46 and an interior shot at 1:15. High-resolution photographs of the house are available by request.
