Welcome to Lenawee Getaway Cottage, this newly constructed home was completed the summer of 2023.

Nestled in the woods of Bayfield County, Lenawee Getaway has an open floor plan with a vaulted ceiling, windows facing every direction, and is the perfect place to relax and reconnect with family, friends, and nature. There is plenty of storage built in for storing all your gear, kitchen items, helmets, and anything you bring on your adventure.

Lenawee Getaway has a modern kitchen with gas range & oven, refrigerator with filtered water & ice, dish washer, microwave, coffee maker, blender, and an additional beverage refrigerator for extra storage. The large bar height center island with seating for six is the perfect place to gather with friends and family while you enjoy a meal, play games, or solve the world’s problems. A smaller bistro table and chairs is also provided for additional dining space.

The two bedrooms are both furnished with comfortable plush top queen-sized beds and large lighted closets for your belongings, additional storage is available under the beds. Wall mounted fans are installed in both bedrooms for your comfort.

The bathroom has an accessible, zero threshold, shower with a handheld shower and a wall mounted shower head, a ceiling vent with heater, comfort height toilet, and a large farmhouse sink.

A roomy screen porch attached to the kitchen allows you to enjoy being "in the woods" without the bugs. The screen porch features dimmable lights, a ceiling fan, comfortable lounging furniture, and a bar top that seats four people with a pass-through window to the kitchen sink. You can read a book, observe wildlife, eat your meals, play games, or take an afternoon nap in the gentle breeze from Lake Superior. Outside the screen porch there is a gravel patio, a gas grill, and a fire ring with a grill grate for open fire cooking. On the front porch, overlooking a grassy field with wildflowers, you can sit in the afternoon sun or look up at the Milky Way when the stars come out.

A short walk down the road will get you to the Herbster Beach where a mile of sandy beach awaits you. This beach is one of three beautiful beaches, within 7 miles of each other, that give you access to the refreshing waters of Lake Superior.

The South Shore area offers many wonderful restaurants, fun bars, and entertainment with small town flair. If you are looking for adventure hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, sailing, snowshoeing, skiing (water/XC/downhill), hunting, fishing, or trapping you will be sure to find whatever kind of adventure you’re searching for, or you may even find something new! There are many hiking trails in the area including the Apostle Island National Lake Shore, Chequamegon National Forest, and Valhalla Recreation Area to name a few. If you are looking for waterfalls, you’ll find Twin Falls in Port Wing and both Siskiwit Falls and Lost Creek Falls in Cornucopia, both towns are 7 miles from Lenawee Getaway. If you enjoy a little faster pace, we have hundreds of miles of ATV and Snowmobile Trails that can be accessed right out the front door. Charter a fishing trip on Lake Superior or find a fishing hole on one of several Class 1 Trout streams nearby. Hunting areas for both small and large game can be found across every county in northern Wisconsin.

Bayfield County is home to several farm-to-table style restaurants, one being Herbster’s own Cranberry Over Superior. Elsie Blue General Store & Timberrr Bar is within walking distance. Both are in downtown Herbster. Many other restaurant choices are available in any direction.
