Grantsburg, Wisconsin cabins and vacation rentals

it's cabin time™ in Grantsburg

Cabin vacationers like Grantsburg because it’s a quiet Northwoods base camp with heavyweight nature right next door: the 30,000-acre Crex Meadows Wildlife Area sits on the edge of town with an Education & Visitor Center, auto-tour loops, and year-round birding (think sandhill cranes, swans, raptors). You’re also minutes from the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway—over 200 miles of paddle-friendly water with ranger-recommended stretches, detailed maps, and riverside campsites for mellow day floats or multi-day trips.

Trails are a four-season playbook: the Gandy Dancer runs more than 20 miles across Burnett County for biking and walking in summer, then transitions to snowmobile/ATV use when conditions allow; state trail passes and local info are easy to find. If forests are your happy place, Governor Knowles State Forest buffers the riverway for 55 miles with 32,500 acres of camping, paddling access, hiking, horseback riding, skiing, and snowmobiling.

Water people get ridiculous variety—Burnett County counts 500+ lakes and 14 rivers for fishing, pontoon cruising, and swim-time between porch sessions. After the paddle or pedal, small-town extras like Brickfield Brewing and Memory Lake Park keep evenings easy without leaving town.
