Gather Your Favorite People and Escape to The Barndo Retreat at Stone Lake!

A private, boutique-luxury barndominium where modern design meets the peace of nature. Set on 2 secluded acres just 3 minutes from Stone Lake, this spacious retreat sleeps up to 18 and delivers year-round fun with a heated indoor sports barn, hot tub under the stars, and thoughtfully designed spaces made for connection.

Easy Lake Life — Just Minutes Away:

Guests love how simple and accessible lake days are at Stone Lake.

Just 3 minutes away, the newly improved public beach, pier, and boardwalk offer a welcoming, family-friendly lake experience — no boat required.

Spend the day swimming from the sandy beach, walking the pier, or enjoying sunset views along the boardwalk. Seasonal rentals for kayaks, paddleboards, and pedal boats make it easy to get out on the water without any planning.

For those bringing a boat, the public launch is nearby — but many guests find everything they need for a full lake day is already right here.

Enjoy the lake at your own pace, then return to your private retreat, hot tub, and open space to unwind.
