Barronett sits along US 63 in lake-and-forest country, where everyday errands stay easy and weekends feel like a getaway. You’re minutes from the cafés and services of Cumberland, the beaches and boat launches managed by the City of Shell Lake, and the shops and events in Spooner and Rice Lake. Outdoor time comes naturally here: glide the impeccably groomed trails at Timberland Hills, track spring warblers and winter owls at Hunt Hill Audubon Sanctuary, or plan a family outing to the DNR’s Gov. Tommy G. Thompson Fish Hatchery to see—and learn about—Wisconsin’s fisheries up close.
Families appreciate practical school choices nearby. The Shell Lake School District offers a close-knit campus with strong arts and athletics, while the Cumberland School District provides additional academic and extracurricular options just down the road. Healthcare is anchored by Cumberland Healthcare, a well-regarded critical access hospital. County services, trail systems, and seasonal recreation are supported by Washburn County, and employment hubs in both Barron County and Rice Lake expand opportunities without sacrificing a quiet, open-space lifestyle.
Whether you’re relocating for the lakes, downsizing to something low-maintenance, or seeking acreage with room for a garden and toys, Barronett makes it easy to live the northern life on your terms. When you’re ready to move, Agent Pronto can quickly connect you with a top local real estate professional—someone who knows the backroads, the school boundaries, and the rhythms of this market—for a smooth experience, whether buying or selling.
