River Ridge Cottage

Enjoy the serenity of a country setting on the Yellow River in Spooner, Wisconsin. Affectionately referred to as "the cottage," you will be staying in a red barndominium. The cozy space offers 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, washer and dryer, a full kitchen and a rustic living room with a wood stove for warmth and ambiance. Outdoors you have a patio for dining and a fire pit for relaxing after taking in all Spooner has to offer. We have walking trails located on our 30 acres of land for your enjoyment. Located just a few minutes from the Spooner Lake boat landing and the Spooner Golf Course. ATV and snowmobile trails accessible directly from the property.
Enjoy the Yellow River by following the path--it's just a hop, skip and a jump from your private patio.
For security purposes, there is one security camera facing the driveway to the cottage.
Please note: There is a cute navy blue and white shed on the property--this is not the red barndominium that you will stay in.

North Woods Cabin by the river
This was our 2nd stay at this property. It is charming, clean and well stocked. We appreciated that the host left empty cupboards in the kitchen for our food. The patio space by the Fox river is amazing. We will be staying again.

What a wonderful place! Impeccably clean and such attention to detail. This place has more amenities than most homes. The owners live on the property close to the cottage/barn dominium. But nobody bothered us, it was very private and quiet. Price was great too, would recommend it to anyone!

Weekend getaway
My fiancé and I just wanted a short relaxing getaway from home and i came across this place. Just what we needed. It was cute, clean and cozy. The first night we were there it was cold and rainy and I loved hearing the rain on the tin roof and having the wood burning stove going. It was a prefect night. Close to town. Would recommend to anyone and would stay again. Great hostess as well. Very attentive when we had questions and had plenty of recommendations for things to do in the area

Cabin on the river
We thoroughly enjoyed our Northwoods cabin in a pole barn. Exquisite attention was given to decorating details with bear and moose themes. My favorite activity was to sit in a chair on the platform by the beautiful river, or put my feet in the river. Will definitely stay again.
