I warmly welcome you to my home located in the midst of Northern Wisconsin's last remote wilderness area. This home is centrally located between Manitowish Waters, WI, Mercer, WI, Hurley, WI, and Wakefield, MI. My home is a 6700 sq. ft. custom built log home from lodge pole pines from western British Columbia.

The location is on a tranquil crystal clear lake and is within a scenic 20-minute drive to all the major ski hills in the Hurley/Ironwood/Wakefield area, have direct access to hundreds of miles of snowmobile/ATV trails, and near many breathtaking waterfalls (APRIL AND MAY ARE THE BEST WATERFALL VIEWING TIMES). I’m excited for you to enjoy your stay at this special place. As for things to do, the list is endless.

This home is designed for a relaxing retreat, a couples getaway, fun with friends, family gatherings, special events, or for recreation such as fishing, kayaking, canoeing, road biking, mountain biking, fat tire biking, hiking, downhill skiing, world class cross-country skiing (skate and classic), snowshoeing, ATVing, snowmobiling, and waterfall hunting. It is within minutes to miles of groomed world class cross-country trails, walking trails, bike trails (connecting to neighboring towns/cities), and fabulous 5 star fine restaurants.

    Beautiful house on the cleanest lake I’ve ever seen. Very private. Tammy is very responsive and the house has everything you could need. There are a lot of stairs to the lake which could be an issue if you aren’t very mobile.

    What a wonderful log cabin. Every amenity. Spotlessly clean. Exactly as described. Clearly owners take pride in their hidden gem.

    Property met our needs. A little warm in the house on the hotter days as cabin did not have A/C. Boat did not work, however, Tammy reimbursed us the rental fee. Unfortunately, the family was not able to fish. Overall, we enjoyed our time at the cabin.

    Beautiful setting, and lovely log home. Being able to look out and and enjoy the view of lake was very relaxing. Grandkids loved to be able to fish on the dock and out of pontoon. Kayaks and paddle boards were in excellent condition and fun to take out on the calm lake. Ping pong in downstairs was enjoyed. Thank you Tammy for being a fantastic host.
