We really enjoyed our stay at the Second Wind Country Inn Bed and Breakfast. Although we had a busy schedule, it was wonderful to come back to the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful room. Our hosts were amazing and sent us on our way with a scrumptious breakfast.

We've never stayed at a bed and breakfast before so we didn't know what to expect. Kelly is a fabulous cook, and fun to talk to. She makes you feel like you're actually a part of her family. The rooms were very well decorated and clean. They provide many activities for people to interact together. Best place we've ever stayed.

We stayed at Second Wind for a weekend getaway. Kelly and Mark were very accommodating. We arrived late on Friday and Kelly still insisted on waking up to make us breakfast at 6:45am so we could make our kayak trip. Then she followed that up with the best scones we've ever had on Sunday. The house is amazing. Everything is new and kept very clean. The grounds outside are great for sunsets and relaxing walks. We would definitely go back, especially for their price.

Mark and Kelly are two of the friendliest, most welcoming people I've ever met. I spent a week at the inn and, by the second day, they felt like lifelong friends. Kelly cooks a delicious breakfast every morning, the rooms are large and comfortable, and the land is beautiful. This is the place.

We have stayed at Second Wind several times now and absolutely LOVE it every time. The rooms are extremely clean, the place is beautiful (built recently) and the hosts are amazing! The breakfast each morning is prepared from scratch with real ingredients including freshly ground grains. I would highly recommend this B&B for families, couples or singles. Our children love to pet the kitties and horses, look at the stars, eat smores by the campfire and enjoy the common area where we all play games. We cannot wait to return with our two children each year. The location is out of the way enough to allow you time to rest and relax yet close enough to Ashland and Bayfield to enjoy the many activities there. I am confident that you will not be disappointed with your stay at Second Wind.

We had just a wonderful time at Second Wind! We had a bedandbreakfast.com gift card so we searched around the website and are so glad we found Second Wind! The inn is HUGE and set on a hobby farm. If space is what you're looking for, you'll find it here. We even saw the northern lights from our room! Breakfast and innkeeper company was excellent! Because we are new to B & B's we learned we need to schedule more "down time" to enjoy more of the B & B experience.

Mark, Kelly and family made us feel right at home. The Northern Lights was a beautiful room with a wonderful view. We enjoyed our quiet walks in the country and making s'mores down by the bonfire. We also just sat down on the swing by the bonfire looking at the beautiful night sky. We will return next time when we are in the area. We have already stayed two times in The Northern Lights Room and my parents even stayed for a weekend. Thanks for sharing your beautiful bed and breakfast with us. Al and Lori

I was looking for a place to stay for one night because of a concert in the area. Every usual place was booked! I happened across Second Wind and am I glad I did. Kelly and Mark and their family were awesome. The room and the breakfast made me feel like a princess. This was our first time to stay at a B&B and I think we shall have to "get away" again to catch our "Second Wind".

What a wonderful place to stay. Beautiful home, wonderful people! Kelly, Mark and their children make you feel like an extended part of their familly. Even their pets greet you like a long lost friend! And the breakfast was delicious. My mother has dietary restrictions (no milk products). Kelly worked around them and came up with something wonderful that she could eat, too. All in all we had a very relaxing stay. Only wish it could have been longer -- hopefully next time it will be!

Awesome, breathtaking. This was my husband and my first time staying in a B&B and it won't be the last. Kelly, Mark and their family were wonderful hosts. We have paid considerably more and received less in the chain hotels. The beauty and quietness of the countryside can't be beat. And I can't forget the jacuzzi. We are already planning our next trip to Second Wind. Kelly & Mark, Thanks for the wonderful experience and hospitality.

We happened upon the Second Wind Country Inn via the Chamber of Commerce for Ashland, WI. The family is wonderful, the Inn is beautiful, the countryside is georgous, the rooms are comfortable, and the food is fantastic! This was an anniversary stay for us. We definitely want to go back and stay longer! Thanks Kelly and Mark! Jeff and Susan Giddings

Review Second Wind Country Inn Bed and Breakfast, Ashland, WI

Photo Album

"The Bear Den" is the most requested room at Second Wind.
Enjoy this Jacuzzi suite with a private bath, canopy log queen size bed and wonderful cozy chairs. This room is also handicap accessable.
We enjoy the greatest sunsets and sunrises off our front porch. You can see for miles. We'd love you to join us.Come join us on a sea kayaking outing to the sea caves near Cornacopia WI.  Give us a week or two notice and we'll hook you up with an outfitter.

Join us in the winter when Lake Superior is frozen over (usually January and February) and the "Sea Caves" become known as the "Ice Caves"
A quiet little nook in our Gathering Room for our guests to enjoy.A peek at Pine Cone Hollow.  One of our jacuzzi suites complete with desk, private bath,sitting area and a double futon for guests traveling with an extra companion or child.
A awesome chair to curl up and hibernate in The Bear Den.
