Things to Do On the Resort

Leisure Activities

Silent Sports – Hiking, Fat Tire Biking, Birdwatching, Skiing and Snowshoeing

Stonehaven provides excellent trails for the silent sports enthusiast! In 2016 when we first bought the property we began to carve out beautiful trails for our future guests to enjoy. We spent a year planning and creating several trails that now wind throughout our 40 acres. Bring along your binoculars to enjoy the birds and wildlife as you walk along Cherry Tree Trail! Or take an early morning cross-country ski on Sunrise Trail as the sun comes up and peeks through the trees to say good morning! We take our dog Reggie on daily walks on various trails, but his personal favorite is Cherry Tree Trail because he knows that’s the one that leads down to the lake!

Ice Skating

The city of Rice Lake keeps a flooded rink open offering skating.

Sledding

We have a couple of awesome sledding hills for small children and adults alike! We provide a variety of sleds at no extra charge for your downhill enjoyment!
