Our classic Northwoods chalet is our family cabin, tucked into a private, wooded lot with 150 feet of shoreline on crystal clear Ham Lake. We have knotty pine interior with soaring floor-to-ceiling windows facing the lake, and a large wraparound deck that is engulfed in trees. You can smell the pine, hear the loons call and watch the eagles soar overhead.
We spend a lot of time on the deck: grill on the Weber, dine at the table for six, or sink into cushioned seating and view the lake through the trees. It’s perfect for family meals, quiet coffees, or evening star gazing.
Our lake’s pristine water is some of the clearest in Northwest Wisconsin. Swim, glide across the water in one of our kayaks our our SUP, or fish from the dock or take out our rowboat with the trolling motor. Play on the lily pad or float on our rafts. Enjoy our private dock.
Enjoy fires at our firepit overlooking the lake.
We also love to walk the wooded roads around Ham Lake. Our favorite route is right out of our driveway down to Crooked Lake, or continuing to Mail Road and back, or for a five mile loop, all the way around the lake.
If you are a cyclist, the area around our cabin is a bicycler’s dream!! Most of the roads are lightly traveled and are great for road biking. Or for mountain bikers, there are several mountain bike/fat tire trails in the area. The Gandy Dancer Trail that runs from Danbury to St Croix Falls is long and flat and works for any kind of cycling.
Burnett County, and especially our area, is filled with ATV trails. See here for more information: https://www.burnettcountywi.gov/135/ATV-Trails
At night, the pitch-black sky is filled with unbelievable stars—the best places to star gaze are our dock or the driveway. If you are used to seeing stars only from the city, you are in for a treat!
Winter is also fun at our cabin. The propane fireplace is extra cozy, ideal for curling up with a book or board game after a day of cross-country skiing or snowmobiling on the abundant trails in our area. See here for snowmobile trails: https://www.burnettcountywi.gov/139/Snowmobile-Trails
We equip for families, including a pack-n-play, a high chair, kids’ plates and utensils and lots of kids’ toys and games. See the full shelf of board games in the loft.
PLEASE NOTE: **Our lake is private and does not have a public boat ramp, therefore there is not boat access for non residents of the lake. We provide a rowboat style fishing boat and trolling motor for your use.
Our cabin is great for both peaceful solitude and family connection. We know your family will love it as much as we have for the past 20 years!
