3 Bedroom Cabin in Birchwood

Cozy Bear Cabin is a 3 bed / 2 bath / 1,500 sq foot lakefront cabin that sits on 1-acre of private forestland offering year-round activities for the outdoor enthusiast! The secluded drive through the rolling Blue Hills of the Barron County Forest offers a true “up-north” feeling as you arrive at the cabin.
Enjoy beautiful Hemlock Lake views from the backyard, evenings relaxing in the large screened-in porch, grilling on the deck, and making s’mores around the campfire!
This family-friendly cabin is located on secluded Hemlock Lake, part of the Red Cedar chain of lakes. The cabin is nestled in a private bay which offers relaxing lake views with crystal-clear, calm waters perfect for kayaking, pedal boating and fantastic fishing! Hemlock connects to the larger Red Cedar and Balsam Lakes for combined 30 miles of shoreline to explore and plenty of area for watersports activities!

* Year-round activities! *
Summer months offer some of the best boating, watersports, fishing, hiking, biking, and golfing in the Northwoods! All three of the lakes have crystal-clear waters and provide great fishing for walleye, northern pike, bass, and panfish! Boat to various bars and restaurants on Red Cedar Lake. Plenty of open water to navigate in your boat with about 2,500 acres and 30 miles of shoreline to explore. Enjoy kayaking, pedal-boating, or taking the rowboat for a lap around the lake! Plus the 18-hole Tagalong Golf Course (located along the Red Cedar Lake shoreline) is only 7 miles from the cabin! Also, a great location for hiking with the Ice Age Hiking Trailhead being located only 3 miles from the cabin. Take your mountain bike a few miles north to the endless CAMBA off-road bike trails around the Hayward area.
The winter months provide incredible ice fishing (Hemlock Lake is a hidden gem). Plus, hop on your snowmobile and cruise down the back yard across the lake and you have access to over 250 miles of the best snowmobile trails in the Midwest! Snow shoeing and cross-country skiing on the lake, and Christie Mountain Ski Resort is only 15 miles from our cabin where you can enjoy downhill skiing, snowboarding, and tubing!
We look forward to sharing our cabin with you!
Guest access:
- We have a touchscreen keypad lock for contact-less guest entry.
- Parking is large enough for 3 or 4 vehicles.
Other things to note:
- New Dock with huge fishing platform, and two built-in benches, being installed Spring of 2024! Enjoy morning coffee or evening drinks on the dock with relaxing water views! We always see bald eagles soaring and diving for fish from the dock :)
- New log-cabin style King bed in the master bedroom!
- New log-cabin style dining room table and chairs, and log-style bedside tables, screened-in porch patio furniture!
- You are welcome to bring your own boat and/or jet ski and tie up at our dock during your stay.
- Propane is provided for the gas grill.
- Please bring your own firewood.
- Cabin is located ATV / UTV friendly road. Hop on your 4-wheeler and go explore!
- Cellular service is poor at the cabin. We have Wi-Fi for email, messaging, FaceTime, and we have a landline in case of emergencies.
- Shoreline at the end of the dock is murky and not great for swimming or jet skis. Because of the lily pads and water vegetation, it can be very difficult to get a jet ski (or jet propulsion boat) to the dock because the jet ski can get clogged up with lily pads / seaweed. Boats with propellers do not have this issue as they can power through the lily pads and seaweed by moving slow through the waters near the dock.
- However, the lake water is crystal-clear and provides excellent swimming locations once you take out the boat and drop anchor in deeper water, or pull up to sandy shorelines all over the 3-lake chain.
- Due to health allergies, no pets allowed.
- Ring Doorbell camera located on the front door of the cabin. That is the only recording / video device on the property.
