Northwoods lake home with gentle slope to clear lake with sandy beach

Welcome to our lake home on Island Lake in Barnes, Wisconsin. Island Lake is approximately 60 acres and roughly 50 feet deep. The lake is large enough for skiing and tubing, but small enough that it doesn't have heavy boat traffic. A very gentle walk to the lake leads to a zero entry beach with sugar sand and crystal clear water.

The cabin is clean and cozy with all the amenities of home. It has 3 levels- Upstairs has a queen bed, single bed, and half-bath. The main floor has a queen bed and full bed along with a full bathroom. Downstairs has two twin beds, a sofa and a third full bathroom. There are additional inflatable sleep mattresses. While the cabin sleeps 8 comfortably, there is certainly room for more, especially if there are kids and/or guests don’t mind staying in tighter quarters.

The cabin includes a fully stocked kitchen, linens, bath towels and air conditioning. Our guests are set up with initial start up paper products such as toilet paper, paper towels & kleenex. Guests are asked to provide their own beach towels, additional paper products and disposable dining products (paper plates, cups, napkins, etc). There is a Keurig, coffee pot, blender, & crockpots for use.

A lakeside deck with a table and chairs awaits you for coffee, cocktails or a card game. There is a bon fire pit near the lake, a paddle boat, canoe, and three kayaks ready for your use, and wildlife galore. Recreational boating activities are permitted between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. so that everyone is able to enjoy the lake.

Whether you stay at the cabin or venture out, you'll find lots of activities to enjoy! It's the perfect distance from Hayward, WI -- just 30ish miles for necessities, dining and entertainment, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of a cabin nestled in the peaceful Northern Wisconsin woods. Great ATV, snowmobile and cross country ski trails are accessible from the home.
