Welcome to The Nest – Your Northwoods Adventure Basecamp
Location, Location, Location
Adventure literally starts at your doorstep. Located less than 1/4 mile from official trail systems, you'll have immediate access to hundreds of miles of interconnected trails spanning Bayfield, Douglas, Washburn, and Sawyer counties. Whether you're carving through fresh powder on a snowmobile, exploring backcountry on your UTV, gliding along cross-country ski trails, or simply immersing yourself in nature's tranquility, The Nest puts you right where you want to be.
Anglers will rejoice knowing they're just minutes from some of Northwestern Wisconsin's clearest, most productive fishing waters, including the renowned Eau Claire Lakes Chain. And despite the secluded feel, you're only an hour from Duluth or three hours from Minneapolis—close enough for a weekend getaway, remote enough to truly unplug.
Designed for Comfort & Convenience!
After a day of adventure, return to a space that feels like home—only better. The Nest features:
- Two comfortable bedrooms for restful nights under the stars
- Full bathroom plus half bath for added convenience
- Full-size washer and dryer to keep your gear fresh
- Smart TVs in every room, including a spectacular 75" screen in the living room for those cozy evenings in
- Attached heated single-car garage—the perfect spot to store and thaw your snowmobile gear, ice fishing equipment, or muddy boots between adventures
