Whereabouts in Mount Zion is the house? I don’t believe that house in the film is there.
Jeff Teel on ‘Following the Straight Path’ tried to find the house during his travels:

I love how in-depth he goes into his travel because I’m such a huge fan of the film.
I believe in the picture above is a set and is actually in a totally different location, instead of the actual real life house of Mount Zion where the story took place.
It’s off of Remington Hill Road which is off of County Road S in Crawford County, WI. In the movie the bartender said it’s of of County Rd W which is incorrect. However County Rd W runs through Mt Zion which also plays a part in the movie. I grew up in the county and absolutely love it here. Any questions email me bnett94@gmail.con
Having been raised in Laurens, Iowa, for the first 7 years of my life . I found this film most interesting. Well done. The message of the film is about forgiveness and our pastor recently used this in her sermon to make that point. Unfortunately, there those who are not willing, in today’s world, to forgive.
Where is Lyle’s cabin?
(Lyle) Henry’s cabin is off of Remington, same as the movie. The little cabin has been knocked down and destroyed.
