About this property

This home has the privacy you like and yet activities for all seasons. There is fishing on Barker Lake to catch Muskie, walleye, small mouth bass, and panfish. When you’re done fishing, you can head to the historic nine-hole golf course just walking distance away or hop on your ATV and explore the Tuscobia Trail. Sevenwinds Casino is only 22 miles away for fun and entertainment. You are 30 miles from Hayward, home of the Muskie Festival, Lumberjack World Championship, Fat Tire Races, American Birkebeiner, and other Birkie events. In the winter, you can take off to the snowmobile trail enjoying the beauty of a northern Wisconsin winter. Or you can simply enjoy your time relaxing in a spacious house or on the deck overlooking the lake.

When you come in the door, the first thing you will see is the elevated south-facing picturesque open view. Available on the first floor is open living with fully equipped kitchen, 3-season sun room, living/dining room, laundry room and 1/2 bath. Off the living room is the master bedroom with walk-in closet and 3/4 (shower) bathroom.

Upstairs is second bedroom with queen bed, walk-in closet and 1/2 bathroom. The loft has a daybed with trundle for extra sleeping.

The walk-out lower level has two more bedrooms--one room has a double bed and the other a twin-over-double bunk bed (perfect for the kids). The TV/game room with a queen sofa sleeper is another area for guests to congregate. The basement also includes 3/4 (shower) bathroom.

This home has it all for every season. Make your reservation today!

Our fav north woods cabin!

Colleen's cabin is a total delight. It's become a family favorite and we have returned now for another year. She is an amazing host. The home comfortably fits our extended family of 8 plus a toddler. The views are incredible. Everything is top-notch and well equipped. We can't wait to come back! THANK YOU!

Barker Lake Vacation Near Winter, Wisconsin

Great property located on beautiful Barker Lake, part of the Chippewa Flowage. The property is large and located on a quiet roadway in the woods. The house has many bedrooms and bathrooms for guests. The large deck, 3 season porch, and layout to the kitchen and living room is great. Location is close enough to Winter or Hayward for a variety of entertainment or dining options. The firepit is great for a relaxing evening.

About the host

Hosted by Colleen and Dean Shupe

We live in central Wisconsin and bought this home in 2018 to share not only with family and friends but also with fellow travelers. We have been VRBO customers for many years and have learned what it takes to make stays comfortable, relaxing, and enjoyable.

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for the convenient modern living surrounded by a rustic landscape. It is away from the congestion of more popular locations, which makes it ideal for privacy--but it is not too far from the Hayward-area festivals. We love how it is right off the snowmobile trail and close to other nature activities.
