Both Julie and Rachel have been best of friends and co-owners of two stores, one in Eagle River and one in Sparta, WI. Both of these ladies initially created Cotton + Birch to bring Eagle River a positive and encouraging boutique to the North Woods! Both ladies have been vacationing up in Northern Wisconsin since they were little girls, and they had always wanted to have a place like C + B here! It has been a tremendous adventure since converting the once-antique store into a beautiful and spacious boutique. Thank you to the community of Eagle River for being a huge blessing and large support of the store. Eagle River is the best!
