The home was built with attention to detail and appreciation for fine materials and workmanship. Natural wood floors, two-story fieldstone fireplace, open staircase, and natural tiles grace the home. Beautiful art and handmade quilts add to the beauty of the full views of lake and woods from each room. A full length cedar deck, comfortable outdoor furniture, and natural landscaping further add to the enjoyment of your stay in this very private and quiet area of Wisconsin. This home is a comfortable stay for four couples, one large family (with guests), or two small families.
Miles of quiet beach are accessible by a gentle two flight staircase, as pictured. The sand is fairly free of rocks and the lake gently increases in depth from the shoreline - great for children. The State Forest and a School Nature Preserve are within easy hiking or biking (by trail, beach or roadway). Beach chairs and shade umbrellas are provided.
Summer activities are endless, but the winter activities also provide special memories. Cross country ski or snowshoe on the State Forest maintained trails or in Door County. Sledding on our property is awesome! Stars are not dimmed by city lights and make evenings so special. Enjoy an evening campfire, lay back and watch the night sky. Many a shooting star has been seen here and northern lights on occasion. Full moon rises from the lake and morning sunrises are real memory makers. The sun may set in the western sky, but watch what it does to the eastern sky over the lake - spectacular.
Door County is within an hours drive for shopping, restaurants, and outdoor activities. Golf options are great with Fox Hills (10 minutes), American Club (40 minutes), and local golf courses that will even design a special golf outing with you. You can fish in nearby streams, rivers, or ponds - or you can hire a charter to fish Lake Michigan whitefish, trout, or salmon.
You don't have to plan anything. You can make your stay as peaceful or active as you like. The beauty surrounds you as you read a book, lie in the hammock and relax. The hammock sits in the shade, overlooking the lake with a view of the birds at the feeders and hummingbirds drinking from the flowers. We plant lots of flowers to attract butterflies and hummingbirds!
