Architect-Designed.
Built for the Lake.
Designed by architect Michael Huber, the BarrelHouse on Pine Lake is a modern-industrial lakefront estate in Baldwin, Wisconsin. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame Pine Lake from every room. Steel, stone, and warm wood create an atmosphere that feels like a boutique hotel — not a rental.
The main BarrelHouse sleeps 16 across 5 bedrooms with ensuite master baths. The adjacent Barrel Nook guesthouse adds 2 more bedrooms and sleeps 4 — perfect for the couple or family that wants their own space while staying with the group.

Space for Everyone.
Privacy When You Need It.
Most group rentals force everyone into shared spaces. The BarrelHouse was designed differently — multiple living areas, a game loft with pool table and ping pong, a basement theater, and the separate Barrel Nook guesthouse all give your group room to breathe.
Whether you're planning a corporate retreat, a bachelorette weekend, a family reunion, or a women's getaway from Minneapolis — this is the property that makes the trip unforgettable.
Everything Your Group Needs.
Nothing You Don't.
45 Minutes from the Twin Cities.
A World Away.
The BarrelHouse sits on Pine Lake in Baldwin, Wisconsin — a convenient 45-minute drive from the Twin Cities via I-94. Close enough for a Friday afternoon departure. Far enough to actually disconnect.
Every Season Has Its Own
Reason to Come Back.
Private Lake. No Crowds.
Pine Lake is yours. Swim from the private dock, kayak at sunrise, paddleboard at sunset. The BarrelHouse terrace and fire table become the center of every evening. Ideal for large group gatherings, corporate retreats, and milestone celebrations within 45 minutes of the Twin Cities.
Peak Color. Peak Privacy.
Wisconsin's fall foliage transforms Pine Lake into a private nature reserve. The architect-designed great room — with its 25-ft wood-burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows — becomes the most dramatic backdrop for a fall retreat, corporate offsite, or family reunion.
Snowmobile Trails. Sauna. Fireplace.
The BarrelHouse is a year-round destination. Snowmobile trails connect directly from the property. The infrared sauna and 7-seat hot tub are at their best after a day in the cold. Trollhaugen Ski Area is 20 minutes away. This is Wisconsin winter done at a level most properties can't match.
Shoulder Season. Full Experience.
Spring at Pine Lake is quiet, green, and completely private. Willow River State Park is adjacent. The BarrelHouse is fully operational year-round — the hot tub, sauna, theater, and game loft don't take a season off. Spring weekends book fast; plan ahead.
