Wisconsin is most popularly known as being America’s Dairyland. Expect to find an abundance of world-class cheesemakers in this northern state. But nature, skiing and access to two of the Great Lakes adds to the natural appeal. Come to Wisconsin, and experience the city life, then, venture into its breathtaking forests. We found more than a handful of unique and intriguing Airbnbs that will enhance any trip to the Scandinavian-influenced state.
Beechwood Cottage, Secluded A-Frame - Sister Bay
Stay amongst the trees in Sister Bay. The A-frame cabin has an interesting curve to its architecture, which is evident both from the outside and in. While paneled wood walls add warmth, the kitchen is quite up to date, and the bathroom has a trendy chic theme.
Kodiak on Long Lake - Comstock
Taking several pages from the Scandinavian book of design, the brand new cabin is light, yet warm, with clean-cut touches. High ceilings open the space up, and the overall look is completely stunning. Being right on the lake, the views enhance the structure’s beauty.

Springbrook's 1850's Cottage - Burnett
Transport back to the 1850s, and stay in this simplistic cottage that still has its original appeal.

But not just any outhouse, it’s definitely been modernized. Disconnect, reflect, find inner peace.
Tiny on the River - Black River Falls
