The Lipsie Ritz - A place where life sets its own pace.
Relax among the pines in a private family lake cabin in northwest Wisconsin. Hear the loons in the morning and evening. Watch bald eagles soar over the lake. Swim, canoe, or paddle boat in the lake.
Relax in a floating chair or just sit on the dock. Ice fish in the winter, fish in the summer. Watch your kids create their own fun in the woods, or play a game as a family. Watch the sun set over the lake in hues you won't see anywhere else.
Enjoy the local tourism, a train museum, the fishing capital of the world, the Gandy Dancer snowmobile, bike and ski trail. This is a true escape. No TV, video games, or computers (unless you bring your own). There is cell phone and blackberry access, but its remote enough that you don't have to admit it unless you want to.
Once you turn down the gravel road it's 1/2 mile to the cabin. You'll feel your shoulders relax, your mind clear, and your worries melt.

Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1994
Why the Owner Chose Spooner
I moved to the DC area in 1992 yet stayed connected to my family in Minnesota. I wasn't sure where I would settle, and I wanted to make a real estate investment. My Mom and I decided to buy a cabin. We searched for a couple of months (me flying back from DC on weekends to look) and almost gave up when we learned about this 4-season cabin on Lipsie Lake. Mom toured the cabin and sent me a video because I couldn't get back to Wisconsin to see it. I decided to buy it from that video - it was exactly what we were looking for!
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Peace & quiet, time to read, relax in the hammock, play games with the family, take a walk, canoe on a glassy lake in the early morning, see the sunset across the lake...there are also may local tourism opportunities and festivals to enjoy.
Owner's Map of Spooner
I grew up in Minnesota and remember fondly the weekends "at the lake" where my grandparents lived. That memory lives on, and I have created a similar experience for my sons - though we only get to the cabin a couple of times a year. I live and work in Virginia (just outside of DC) and we don't get back to the area as much as we'd like. My parents still live in Minnesota. The cabin is where my extended family gathers and where my friends from the area come to see us during the summer or holidays.
