About this property

This 1905 building has lived many lives and most recently has been remodeled into a family friendly gathering place. It is located on a beautiful stretch of lakefront property between New Auburn and Bruce, Wisconsin.

Enjoy swimming to sauna to s'mores around the fire.

Conveniently located 1 hour north of Eau Claire and 2 hours from Twin Cities/MSP airport.

Our family has enjoyed time at Fireside Lake since 1998. We are very excited to offer this newly renovated lodge for the gathering of your family and friends. We have beds for 18 (no bunk beds) and 4 bathrooms (4 showers and one tub).

The great room is designed for real life connection while you are doing a puzzle, playing a board game, learning to bake cookies with your grandparents or having a night around the fire.

Kayaks, life jackets, yard games and gas grill are included. Pontoon can be rented for additional fee. Fireside Lake is home to 3 loons and an eagle's nest with baby eagles most summers. Excellent year round fishing with boat landing across the lake.

This is a central location for fishing on many lakes, snowmobile trails, mountain biking and hiking the Ice Age Trail in New Auburn. Christie Mountain is 20 miles away for downhill skiing and also within 20 miles, Chetek is home to Stardusk Drive In movie theater.

There is an owner's suite attached. Private entrances and a privacy fence separate the outdoor spaces.

Winter Get Away

Wonderful place to stay for a large group. Host was quick to reply to my questions. Reached out to make sure our stay was going well and to see if we needed anything. Beautiful lodge with tons of amenities. Can’t wait to make this an annual get away!

Comfortable and easy-going place for short business retreat

We were 7 business colleagues/friends, so having 7 bedrooms was essential. The group meeting space exceeded our expectations. The open plan was full of light and with a lake view for our large group discussions and meals. The layout of the shared spaces easily allowed of smaller groups to do different activities at the same time, e.g., cooking, games, conversation. The modern feel and amenities were spot on for our needs.

Great Visit

This place has lots of space and rooms for our relatively large family gathering. We especially enjoyed the yard games, sauna, campfires, and lake activities. The hosts are great to communicate with and are very welcoming and responsive.

Hang out at Hygge!

Great lodge with a lot of space to hang out for a large group. The beds were comfortable, Deck was awesome and it was great that the dock was large enough for two boats. Hosts are very accommodating messaging prior to our stay, upon check in and checkout.

Incredible cabin getaway!

This cabin was a beautiful place for us to stay! Everything was very clean and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed having a fire (inside and outside) and spent lots of time in the sauna! We hiked at the nearby Ice Age trail and ate at a great local restaurant. This is a great place for family and friend gatherings that we would recommend to anyone!!

Hayden family vacation

We truly enjoyed our week of family fun at Hygge Lodge. The house was so comfortable and cozy! We loved the sauna, the fishing, the outdoor space for bean bags, and the entire setting. Jodi was so easy to work with and always responded to our questions and needs immediately. I see this property only getting better as it grows.

Multi Family Weekend Stay

Hygge Lodge was spacious enough for us all! Amenities and layout are very thoughtful creating a welcoming stay. We enjoyed coffee while overlooking the lake, cards and games, relaxation in the sauna, and made good use of the fully equipped kitchen. A beautiful property with plenty of room for all!

Lake Life

Our family spent a week at the Hegge Lodge. We had an amazing time. The house was everything we needed. The host was very accommodating. They gave us information on renting a pontoon for the week. It was very relaxing and we enjoyed every minute. The lake was awesome!

Family Getaway

Our family loved the openness of the downstairs. The back yard is pretty small so we were not able to set up and play the outside games we brought along. We loved the paddle boards and kayaks. It would be nice if there were a ladder on the dock to be able to get in and out of the lake easily - we had small children and we didn't want them climbing out on the rocks. Loved all the beds - they kids definitely had options. Our family enjoyed our stay.

One Heck of a Weekend!

We had an absolute blast staying at this property! The lodge was incredibly comfortable and there was no detail left out. The views of the lake were impeccable, and the common areas were perfect for hanging with with the group, playing games, and enjoying home cooked meals prepared in the beautiful kitchen. The location was perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature, but close enough to fun bars and restaurants. The hosts went above and beyond with a personal note and gift upon arrival and their communication was perfect. We would 100% recommend this property to any group of friends and family looking to have a fun and relaxing weekend. We hope to stay here again in the future!

Something for Everyone!

Large group - 18 people from 3 generations - enjoyed a fantastic week long get away! Lots of water activities - swimming, paddle boarding/kayaking, fishing, and tubing/skiing. Grandparents loved watching from wonderful shaded deck facing the lake. Beautiful Chippewa County ATV trailhead was just 5 miles away. Rusk County trails 15 miles away. Evenings full of yard games and campfires. Large well stocked kitchen with two refrigerators and pantry space made meals easy. Many comfortable sleeping spaces and bathrooms ensured everyone was ready to play all day! Lots of parking space for vehicles and trailers.

Perfect space for a large group

We loved it here. We had three families, with kids ranging from 4-12. It was nice to have so many bedrooms with queen sized beds for couples, and the upstairs with multiple beds and lake view room with singles were great for the kids. Laundry machines and two fridges (not including the bar mini fridge and wine cooler!) were excellent to have for our group. Puzzles, karaoke machine and the games were a plus for our rainy days. We loved the stand up paddle boards, kayaks and the water jumping pad the most. The adults enjoyed the sauna- perfect way to relax! Lori even brought by bug spray and smores stuff- and she was easy to contact and quick to respond. Will definitely be back!!

What a gem!

What a total gem! This lakefront space was the perfect spot for me to hold my retreat. The moment the guests walked in, they felt the warmth and beauty of the space. Many commented that the energy of this retreat was made better by the gorgeous accommodations and natural setting. Having all the amenities in a gorgeous lakefront setting has been a game changer. I highly recommend the Hygge Lodge on Fireside Lake for your retreat, reunion, friend getaway, or family gathering. The hosts are amazing and caring, the lake sparkles, the trees ground you, it's an absolute must! Sarah - Retreat Organizer
