This spacious three bedroom A-frame home sits on a wooded private lake-front lot on the beautiful narrows connecting Birch Lake (368 acres) and Big Chetac Lake (1920 acres) in northwest Wisconsin. Listen to the geese, ducks and loons; watch the eagles soar and the muskrat and beaver swim by. Catch walleye, bass, bluegill, crappie, and northern from the dock or from a boat. Enjoy the variety of vegetation: wild strawberries, orange paint brush, wild columbine, giant trillium, lush ferns, majestic pines. Cook breakfast over an open fire in the fire ring or bask in the warmth of a late night fire huddled together on rustic log benches.
The loft, with private bedroom (king) and bath, opens to the living room below furnished in a northwoods motif and featuring a three-sided stone wood-burning fireplace.
Walk out onto the deck overlooking the lake where there's plenty of patio furniture to relax and enjoy outside meals. The dining room has a round oak table that can seat eight; there is also a kitchen counter with barstools.
The spacious, L-shaped kitchen is fully-equipped. Rounding out the main floor is another bedroom (king), bath, and utility room with washer and dryer. Just outside the front door is a gas grill.
The lower level features a third bedroom with bunk beds and a newly-built pine and tile family room with walk-out glass doors affording a beautiful view of the lake.

Private Northwoods Three-Bedroom Getaway on Birch Lake
Great spot to tie up pontoon--it's so shallow in spots, it's good for kids to play and swim safely in the water. People even set up volleyball nets! Cool off on a summer day! Fifteen miunutes by boat.
A sand beach with playground equipment and roped off swimming area perfect for younger children. Ten minutes by boat; also accessible by car.
This is the ACTUAL location of our cabin at 1087 N. County Rd F--for some reason the google map locates our cabin in the wrong place!! It is actually on the narrows that connect Birch Lake with Lake Chetac. Go figure!!

Best Vacation We've Had

We've rented this house two years in a row--each time having an entertaining and relaxing vacation with all members of our family (ages 5-73). The unit is clean and comfortable...not too 'cabin-y', but the perfect setting for a lake getaway. There was plenty for everyone to do: grilling out, reading on the deck, water activities, fishing. Nearby, Birchwood is small but has enough to offer if you need a break and want to head into "town". Not only was the place wonderful, Tim and Jennifer were so pleasant and easy to deal with. Really nice people, who make you feel at home. Can't wait until next year!
Recommended for:Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, pet owners, age 55+, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.

My family and I had a wonderful time at this cabin. Plenty of space for a large family. The 2 lakes were perfect for a relaxing pontoon ride. There is a public beach that you can get to by car or boat for the kids. There is also a sand bar on the larger lake to enjoy. The owners were very accomodating and met our needs. The cabin had everything we needed.

We loved our stay here-July 2008. The location is wonderful and the home was perfect for our family. It was clean and neat with all the comforts of home. We would love to go back. Jennifer and Tim were wonderful hosts.
