Brand new kitchen - Bosch dishwasher, reverse osmosis and all GRANITE
Location: Balsam Lake, Wisconsin, USA (Balsam Lake is About 1.5 Hours North East of Minneapolis)
Accommodations: Brand New Log Lake Home, 6 Bedrooms + Den, 5 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Escape to the North Woods - only an hour from the Twin Cities. This incredible new log home is appointed with knotty pine ceilings, oak floors and knotty hickory cabinets. We lovingly refer to the home as "The Lodge". There are several mounts throughout the home - Mr. Moose above the fireplace, deer, antelope, etc.
Main floor has a wet bar, an entertainment center with surround sound, and 42" flat panel TV will keep you entertained. The 16 foot stone fireplace and granite countertops throughout the kitchen complete the natural rustic feel.
The soaring vaulted ceilings are met by the trapezoid windows with the fantastic view of the lake. Watch the loons and the eagles as they pass by. Fish from the dock, or bring your boat as the public landing is a few blocks away. Balsam Lake has great fishing and there are several great restaurants close by and even accessible by boat.
The walkout level also has another wet bar in the family room with a very rustic log construction. There are several outdoor decks/patios. We have 2 docks in the lake in the summer. The shoreline is easy for kids to access and has a sandy bottom.
In the winter, bring your snowmobiles as the Gandy Dancer trails are very close by. This is the ultimate Up North escape.
This is our private family retreat. We are just renting it on some weeks/weekends that we are not able to use it. It will likely be available for only a couple of weeks in the summer and some random dates in the winter. It is perfect for a corporate outing or a family week. Not a place for a roudy party.
Bedroom configuration is: 4 king sized beds and 2 queen size beds. Two of the king bedrooms are suites with their own bath. All bedrooms have premium linens with down comforters.
We are offering a special rate in the summer if you can rent during the week Sunday through Thursday nights. No combining with a weekend. We are there most weekends, but if weekdays work for you, this is a deal. Only $1900 for 5 nights!
There is no daily maid service included, but is available for an additional charge.
