Bear Cottage: Northwoods Comfort in a Cozy Lakeside Nook

Step into Bear Cottage, a quaint retreat where simplicity meets the warmth of northwoods character. Within its snug interiors, the full-sized bed sits adjacent to the main living area, offering an intimate space for rest and relaxation. Bathed in natural light from the side patio door, the cottage whispers hints of the nearby lake, set amidst the lush backdrop of Wisconsin's timeless woodlands.

The cottage is thoughtfully designed for those who treasure intimacy and charm. Lounge on the sofa after a day of adventures, recounting memories over a meal at the dining table fit for four. The kitchenette, equipped with an air fryer/oven combo and a plug-in stove burner, ensures that you're never far from a comforting meal. The modern barn door reveals a well-appointed bathroom, ready to rejuvenate after a day's explorations.

Being just across the street from the St Croix Inn, guests at Bear Cottage are always a stone's throw away from an array of welcoming amenities. Delight in a dip in the pool, indulge in moments of tranquility in the hot tub, or enjoy some friendly competition over billiards at the inn's bar. Start your days with our hearty continental breakfast, and let the waters beckon you for some fun, with kayaks and paddle boats awaiting.

Step outside to a private patio, grill up some favorites, and immerse in the whispers of the northwoods. A hint of the lake, shimmering down the street, adds to the charm of this unique location. Within moments, you can venture to the heartbeat of Solon Springs, with its local allure and myriad activities.

Bear Cottage promises an authentic embrace of comfort and the rich tapestry of the Wisconsin Northwoods, all within a cozy embrace.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Tiny Home Living

If you would love to experience tiny home living before taking an actual plunge to a limited lifestyle, the St Croix #1 Cabin is it! Low ceiling, if you are taller that 5'5" you will feel like a giant in this space. Because of the low ceiling the toaster will set off the smoke alarm waking the neighbors of your early morning luxury of buttered toast. You can shuffle your way to the bathroom closed off by the sliding barn door or just hop off your bed into the tiny bathroom, mind your head. In the bathroom you will find a kitchen faucet used to wash your hands in the tiny sink basin. Don't scald yourself in the shower and be careful if you drop something on the floor of the shower, you'll hit your hit on one wall while your bottom hits the opposite wall. Here's a tip that I learned. turn on the hot and cold knobs at the same time and quickly get yourself wet, turn off the water and as the steam dissipates lather yourself up. Turn the water on again being mindful that the water will shoot out water needles as your rinse off, do it quickly because the hot water will be used up and you're left with cold water needles pounding your body. Enjoy your stay!
