About this property

Highland Cottage in Barnes, WI

Highland Cottage is a charming 2 bedroom 1 Bath cabin. Perfect to getaway and experience the Northwoods area. Enjoy the cozy fireplace, 2 large flat-screen Smart TVs, and a fully equipped kitchen with a dining area that leads out to the patio. The firepit is perfect for gathering around after a day of fun in Northern Wisconsin. The newly fenced yard gives peace of mind with little ones play time or room for the dog to explore.
The cabin is located just east of the Town of Barnes, Wisconsin, right in the middle of fun day trips! Duluth and the North Shore of Minnesota are an hour to the northwest. Amincon Falls and the Brule are just a half-hour to the north. A half-hour to the south is the quaint town of Hayward, Wisconsin where there is something for everyone!
Also, if you enjoy fishing, you're just minutes from the crystal clear Eau Claire Chain of Lakes. Or, if you are an ATV or snowmobile enthusiast you can enjoy the hundreds of miles of trails right outside your front door.
If all or some of this resonates with you make Highland Cottage your special getaway to the North Country!

The property was as advertised. Clean, comfortable and well stocked with kitchen utensils. Nice table and chairs in the fenced in yard. Great for our Irish Doodle to romp around in also. 10 minutes from boat landings on Middle and Upper Eau Claire lakes. Will likely stay again if in the area.
