The Lodge: Gorgeous Wooded Retreat on Pristine North Pipe Lake, Hot Tub

The Lodge is a spectacular cabin on the best lake in Lake Country. The Pipe Lake/North Pipe Lake chain remains clear throughout the summer, has great fishing, recreational opportunities, and a sandy beach and boat launch. Our cabin is on the quieter North Pipe Lake, with easy pontoon/boat/canoe/kayak access to the fully recreational Pipe Lake, giving you two lakes for the price of one! Although we cater to families, with five bedrooms, The Lodge is perfect for a couples weekend, book or crafting club get away or fishing weekends with the guys.

Living Areas
The Lodge has an open floor plan with soaring, vaulted ceilings in the great room, yet remains a warm and inviting home away from home. The great room has access to a multi-level, spacious main deck and a secondary smaller deck off the master bedroom. Windows line three walls of the great room looking out onto the lake, making this space perfect for wild life viewing and watching the gorgeous sunsets. An extraordinary fieldstone, double sided fireplace, hickory floors, a comfortable leather sectional and a baby grand piano make this room so inviting it will be hard to leave!

A fully equipped kitchen, with Sub Zero fridge and a 5 Star range, is a cook's dream. The six burner range with a built in grill and double oven allows for easy, large meal preparation. The over sized fridge is perfect for large gatherings. The kitchen and connected expansive dining room also have a window wall overlooking the lake. The dining room shares the fireplace and is perfect for chilly nights and long board game tournaments. However, throughout the spring, summer and fall, the protected western exposure of the main deck allows comfortable outdoor dining right off the kitchen.

In addition to the amazing upstairs area, the walkout level contains 3 bedrooms and a full bath PLUS another huge amazing living area with a wet bar, fireplace, full window wall and access to two large, shaded patios and the back yard.

Bedrooms
There are two suites of adjoining bedrooms making this cabin perfect for two families to share. Four bedrooms have a lake view and four have direct access to a deck or a patio. The fifth bedroom has a lovely wooded view. The master bedroom has a private deck perfect to enjoy a morning cup or coffee or to watch the sunset in peace. Little ones can share a room right off the master suite if they need to be closer to mom and dad. A large master bath with a soaking tub and separate shower makes this a true master retreat. Need some time away from the kids? This home is the perfect place - a fully insulated walkout level allows kids to have their own space yet close off their bedrooms should they need some privacy too. A separate "parent" bedroom in the walkout level allows a second set of parents to be on that level too. The walkout level bedrooms are very large, giving guests plenty of room to spread out. Windows and patio doors allow a spectacular view of the lake even for the kids.

Outdoor Spaces
The yard is shaded with a combination of white and red pine as well as beautiful hard wood trees including maples and oaks. Fall colors are spectacular and memories are made around the large fire pit as you roast hot dogs and eat those tasty s'mores. Take a short stroll down the steps to the lake where a large, newer TMC luxury pontoon is available for rent for those sunset cruises. Maybe you prefer some old fashioned exercise using the canoe or the kayaks that come with The Lodge rental. Our brand new dock has a fishing bench and swim ladder and there is a lily pad in the lake so kids will spend all day enjoying themselves. Afternoons are spent fishing on this walleye/bass/pan fish lake, swimming, water skiing, canoeing, kayaking or just floating in the lake. Perhaps you just want to curl up with a good book on the front screened porch to enjoy the fresh air. Later you might use the porch for a late night chat or card game should the weather not be agreeable. The kitchen and dining room exit onto the huge deck made for entertaining with a large grill. The lower deck has a hot tub that overlooks the lake and seats six and provides a special view of a sky without light pollution. We dare you to try to count the stars!

Nearby Amenities
If you love winter sports from ice fishing, to snowshoeing, snowmobiling or skiing, you have come to the right place. There are many cross country and snowmobile trails throughout the area including in Interstate State Park, Governor Knowles State Forest or Straight Lake State Park. Both the Cattail Trail and the Northern Railroad Trail can be accessed nearby. The nearby Trollhaugen ski resort is a great downhill ski area in nearby Dresser, WI. Go hiking or biking at Cattail State Trail in Amery, Stower Seven Lakes State Trail in Balsam Lake or the Straight Lake State Park in Luck. Go tubing on the Apple River in Somerset, kayak down the Namekagon River in Trego, or take a boat ride down the St. Croix (a national scenic waterway) at Interstate State Park. Try fly fishing at one of the areas many streams. Beach buffs will love the sandy beaches with play ground equipment and picnic shelters at Beaver Dam Lake in Cumberland, Shell Lake, Rice Lake or Balsam Lake all about 15-20 minute drive away. Locally, there is a lovely sandy beach near the public boat access on Pipe Lake. Grab our sand toys and beach umbrella and plan to pack a picnic lunch. You can take the short drive over to Pipe Lake or take the pontoon, canoe or kayaks over to the beach through the boat channel. With 3 regional golf courses just a short drive away, there is a course for every type of duffer! This area is a hunter’s paradise with many wooded and field areas offering abundant game. Bring your 4 wheelers and take advantage of nearby trails that go for miles. There are plenty of wineries and local brewers to sample nearby. No trip to Wisconsin is complete without going to one of the iconic supper clubs for dinner. If you still have energy after a full day on the lake, hiking or, in the winter, skiing or snowmobiling, nearby Turtle Lake offers a casino for adult entertainment. Neighboring Cumberland, the Island City, has a small town charm and fantastic dining. Nearly every week throughout the summer there are local festivals, dairy feeds, art fairs and music to add to this memorable vacation. We know staying atThe Lodge will make for a perfect vacation!

Relaxing girls weekend
Beautiful location for a relaxing weekend with friends! This home, with it's amazing view of the lake, is just what our group needed. We used the hot tube everyday and enjoyed group meals at the large table in the dinning room. The beds were very comfortable for our over 50 year old bodies :-) We had a wonderful evening out at the County Line bar & grill which was only about 3.5 miles away. The only thing I would suggest is less plug in air fresheners. The one downstairs was overwhelming. Our group highly recommends this home!!

Wonderful Retreat
My group of friends and I tend to try and find cabins in the woods for board gaming in nice quiet environments. This place delivered and then some! In true Midwest fashion, the first day we were there it was 80° and 30° and snowing when we left 4 days later. The cabin had lots of space for people to spread out and relax. The hottub had a great view of the lake, and the beds were very comfortable. We will definitely be staying there again!

Clean, quiet and adventure-ready house!
Our group loves this property! This was our second year here and we're planning to return again next year. We have a group of 8 adults and the house is large enough that we can all have our own space if we want, and then all gather together at the large kitchen table for games and meals. There's a large patio table on the deck and a hot tub that we also enjoy on chilly fall evenings. Everything about the house is pleasant: the decorations are cute and minimal, the appliances are up to date, the kitchen has everything needed for cooking, eating and clean-up and, best of all, there's a book with house instructions that are well-written and complete with photo descriptions. The area is very quiet and peaceful with a beautiful view of the fall colors. We've never used the kayaks or canoe, but all the equipment and life jackets are provided in case you want to. The only potential issue may be accessibility for people with limited mobility. There's just one step up leading into the front door, or a few steps if you're coming in from the garage. Once you're in the house there are bedrooms, bathrooms, the kitchen and a large living room all on the main floor. The lake access is down a hill and would be difficult for someone with limited mobility, but the lake is visible from the deck through the trees in the fall and winter. The host is responsive, communicates clearly and is nice to work with. We appreciate being welcome to enjoy the beautiful home and property.

We loved The Lodge
We had a wonderful stay at the Lodge. It was fantastic to be able to rent the pontoon and go fishing and cruising on both parts of Pipe lake. The kitchen is fantastic (and big), we prepared a steak dinner for 8 people and had the whole crew doing some piece of cooking and cleaning and then we all relaxed on the deck after dinner to hear the loons. Even a full rainy day was enjoyable as we played games and enjoyed each other’s company in the large gathering spaces. Looking forward to a return trip!

Beautiful family getaway
We had a week long family vacation at this beautiful cabin. Check in was a breeze. There was 11 in our group and we plenty of space to to hang out as a group or get some privacy and quite time when needed. We rented the pontoon boat for the week and it was just the right size. It was so convenient to take off from our person dock. Many hours were spent kayaking, fishing, and boating on the lake. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and grilling out. We did have some concerns with our big group that we would run out of room in the water/sewer tank but with a little thoughtfulness it was never a problem. We loved the piano and have a couple of excellent players in the family which made for some great entertainment. The screened in porch came in handy on the rainy days. It was the perfect place to curl up and read a book. We would definitely stay here again in the future.

It was so great having multiple options for outdoor seating on the multi level deck as well as by the fire pit Screened in porch was great for getting outside time without needing bug spray Having access to a well stocked laundry room (as well as bathrooms) was so helpful when traveling with little ones Plenty of parking for our three vehicles The kitchen was big, pretty + so accommodating for cooking for big groups while the rest of the family played board games at the dining table We helped ourselves to many of the games + books during our stay It made disconnecting from our phones + connecting with one another so easy Our hosts were welcoming & very responsive to our inquiries
