Modern Northwoods Escape in Downtown Minocqua
Welcome to Mane Cottage, a modern and elegantly designed Northwoods retreat located in the heart of Minocqua, Wisconsin. This newly renovated property blends the clean sophistication of contemporary design with the cozy charm of lakeside living — offering an ideal balance of relaxation, comfort, and refined style.
Purchased and thoughtfully redesigned in 2025, Mane Cottage is part of the Red Canoe Lodging Collection, a family-owned portfolio of distinctive Minocqua vacation homes crafted with care and an understanding of what makes a Northwoods stay unforgettable.
The Design
Mane Cottage redefines the classic Minocqua getaway with a sleek black and gray palette, warm wood tones, and curated accents that feel both timeless and fresh. Modern lighting, natural textures, and carefully selected furnishings create a welcoming ambiance that feels luxurious yet approachable.
The Layout
The home features two well-appointed bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, making it perfect for couples, small families, or close friends. The primary bedroom offers a plush king bed, soft linens, and warm ambient light, creating a serene retreat after a day by the lake. The second bedroom provides flexibility with twin or queen setup options and contemporary design touches that make guests feel instantly at home.
The main bathroom feels like a spa — complete with heated floors, a walk-in shower, and a double vanity with sleek black fixtures. A half bath powder room near the living area adds convenience and style.
Shared Spaces
The open-concept living room invites connection, with a plush sectional, large smart TV, and natural light streaming through modern black-trimmed windows. The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a full range of cookware, and a stylish island for meal prep or morning coffee. The adjacent dining nook comfortably seats four beneath contemporary lighting — perfect for relaxed meals or game nights.
Comfort & Connectivity
Guests will enjoy high-speed WiFi, central air and heat, a washer and dryer, and all the thoughtful touches that make Mane Cottage feel like home. Every detail — from room-darkening shades to luxury linens — has been chosen for maximum comfort.
The Setting
Located just off Flambeau Street, Mane Cottage sits in the heart of downtown Minocqua, surrounded by boutique shops, cafés, and the area’s iconic waterfront. Guests can walk to Torpy Park Beach, the Bearskin State Trail, and local favorites like the Minocqua Brewing Company and The Boathouse restaurant.
Whether you’re here for outdoor adventure, family time, or a romantic weekend, Mane Cottage offers the perfect blend of design, comfort, and Northwoods charm — a modern escape just steps from the water.
