Cozy Lakeside Log Cabin with fireplaces / Central AC on Manitowish Waters Chain.
Enjoy the Northwoods in our newly remodeled true log cabin. We have thoughtfully combined amenities with family and guests of all ages in mind; from a Queen over Queen bunk bed, hand carved from the trees of Northern Minnesota to a Vermont Castings gas fireplace to warm your loved ones (seasonal)!
You will find everything you need in our oversized kitchen; stainless appliances including a full-sized refrigerator / freezer, induction stove, dishwasher, and microwave. Gather your family and sit at the beautiful kitchen island, with views of the largest lake on the Manitowish chain. Need more seating? A table with chairs / bench seating awaits you, just off the kitchen island. Enjoy a more private meal or drink at our pub height table for two. Regardless of your seating choice, you'll be in the middle of love and laughter in our open concept kitchen / living room area!
The living room boasts a beautiful Northwoods full rock, floor to ceiling hearth / surround. At the center, sits a cast iron Vermont Castings gas fireplace. Enjoy a clean burn, while the fireplace warms your hearts (and everything else). We have added a blower on the fireplace which really spreads the volume of heat this beauty produces. It's "show and go!"
Each of the first-floor bedrooms have a Queen-sized bed, dresser, large closet, and original artwork from the Northern Wisconsin area. The first-floor full bathroom is situated steps away from both bedrooms. Enjoy the modern look of a tiled bathroom, coupled with giant rustic overhead logs (trees).
As you head upstairs, you'll see the craftsmanship from generations of local masonries on the back side of the floor to ceiling rock fireplace surround. Upstairs, you'll find an open concept loft which has the feel of a studio. The loft is equipped with a King-sized bed, and views of the 865-acre Island Lake. Stream your favorite show from a 65" Samsung LED TV while lying in bed or seated at the cozy leather couch in front of your bed. A semi-private half-wall allows you to call the shots to those below you...or to simply enjoy your view from "above."
Venture into the master bedroom, where another King-sized bed awaits. With a large closet / dresser, you'll have plenty of room for extra clothing. A second, full bathroom is also steps away. Enjoy the natural sunlight from two skylights, while you get ready for your day.
Take a stroll into the lower level, just off the kitchen and you may not want to come back up. A mammoth Queen over Queen sized bunk bed (handcrafted from Northern Minnesota) rests in the corner of this retreat. A sectional leather couch encompasses the center of the lower level. From either location, you'll be able to enjoy streaming your favorite tv show on a 65" Samsung LED TV. Also in the lower level, is a 3rd full bathroom.
Conveniently located in this area is a stack washer and dryer, and adjacent is a tub sink and a location to hang your wet bathing suits. Don't want to come back upstairs? No problem, simply exit the lower level walk-out door and take in breathtaking views of magnificent Island Lake.
We are happy to announce that we have added a second Vermont Castings gas fireplace to the lower level area (seasonal). We continuously update our photos and captions, so if you are waiting to book, take a new look and you will more than likely see additional amenities.
The lower level is my favorite "getaway" in the cabin. Well, maybe my second favorite. I do love the open concept "loft" area. It is "private," yet socially inviting!
Regardless of how you exit the cabin, you'll want to enjoy the freshly stained wraparound deck. Take in the early morning sunrise, right from the deck. Watch the fishermen cast for trophy musky in our peaceful cove. As your appetite increases, pull up a bar stool at one of our custom-made tabletops. Line up the family at our 10 foot handcrafted slab of hardwood. Turn the corner and enjoy a more private, secluded location on the covered portion of the wraparound deck. We added another tabletop slab at this location. Take in the views of multiple species of trees, ground growth, and wildlife, as the area boasts numerous deer, ground critters and yes, an occasional area bear. This is our favorite place to sit and have a good cup of coffee.
Take a stroll down to our private dock system on the lake. Want to bring in a boat? No problem. We offer plenty of docking to tie up your boats. Want to bring in a jet ski? Feel free to raise it on our easy-to-use lift. Want to simply relax on the lake? Have a seat on our large wicker couches (Brown Jordan brand) at the end of the dock system on a 144 square foot platform, while the kids jump in the water on our inflatable platform. From here, you’ll see Loons, Merganser’s, and Otters. You’ll be enticed into exploring one of the many islands on this lake. Feel free to use one of the multiple kayaks (4) or paddle boards (2) that we have. We have added a canoe for you to use as well (no extra charge of course!). We have over one dozen coast guard approved life jackets, which we do require when you utilize our water equipment, as we want you to be safe. There are paddle board rentals on the chain, but why pay $50 per board per day, when you have ours for FREE with your reservation with us!
We have exterior deck lighting to aid in your evening activities. Whether you want a traditional color, or want to create your own color combination, you’ll be able to do so right from your phone. Be sure to come out at night, gaze at the stars, and take in the calls of the wild.
Whether you are looking to enjoy world class fishing, top notch winter activities, or explore the 4,000-acre Manitowish chain during the summer, look no further. We are situated on a private road, seconds from the snowmobile trails, and right on the shore of Island Lake. Enjoy all of the lakeside restaurants and bars, minutes from our home, either by water or land.
*** Security camera details ***: There is one exterior camera overlooking the driveway.
