Little Cottage on Prairie is a perfect relaxation place for families, couples, and smaller groups. It is only a short – under 2 hour drive from the Twin Cities, MN or 1 hour drive from Eau Claire, Wisconsin on Prairie Lake. Prairie Lake is connected to Lake Chetek. Prairie Lake is a 1408-acre lake located in Barron County, Wisconsin. Visitors have access to the lake from public boats landing on nearby Wolf's Den RV Campground Resort and Tavern and nearby public boat launch. Prairie Lake is famous for its fishing. Local fish include Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Walleye. Prairie Lake has great water quality, excellent fishing right off the dock and low recreational use.
Little Cottage on Prairie is licensed with Barron County of Health, and we follow all the best practices in cleaning and sanitation. Just bring your food and you don't need to leave with all the amenities right here.
The cabin is set on 2 acres of wooded land, come enjoy this outdoor lover’s haven located on a dead-end road shared with only 2 neighbors. Little Cottage On Prairie sits much higher than neighbors properties creating unobstructed view of wooded land and the lake. Wildlife is abundant at the cabin.
Little Cottage on Prairie is unique lakefront property! Right outside the cabin door you will find miles of biking, ATV, and snowmobile trails.
It the summer, take a short stroll down the gradual slope that’s filled with natural wildflowers to the lake where your kids can play, fish and swim. Use 2 kayaks using boat dock and boat lift right of shoreline.
Spend your summer nights stargazing or roasting S'mores at your choice of the lake-side fire pit or the fire pit closer to the cabin.
