About the host
Hosted by Burt Butler
Having grown up on a lake in northern Minnesota, when Burt Butler moved from North Carolina to Idaho in 1993 to work for the state court system, one of his dreams was to find secluded lakefront property that his four children could enjoy, and ultimately build a cabin that the family could consider a comfortable second home. That dream came true in 1998 when Burt Butler found a unique secluded lakefront property on a peninsula with a gentle shoreline and spectacular fishing with no motor boats allowed on the lake. In the Fall of 2001 the elegant and rustic cabin was started and finished in June 2002. Now retired, in April 2019 Burt moved to the property permanently and has built a log garage with living quarters for himself 100 feet behind the cabin, leaving the cabin for his guests.
Why they chose this property
Our secluded vacation property, with close proximity to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, offers year round recreation opportunity for my family and guests. Swimming, canoeing, fishing and outdoor fires under the stars in the summer, Fall colors and 4 wheeling in the sand dunes adjacent to the lake, and early winter ice skating, and when the snow gets deep great cross country skiing and snowmobiling and the enjoyment of a wood stove. Owner Burt Butler in year 2020 built a garage with living quarters above and now lives on the property year round.
What makes this property unique
Peace, quiet, fires outside and inside, barbecue on the huge deck and dutch oven cooking, great fishing, wildlife variety from frogs, beavers, trumpeter swans, birds of all varieties including bald eagles, moose, deer, to a sighting of a wolf. Cabin is completely available to guests with separate parking and privacy while the owner lives in living quarters above garage 100 feet from the cabin.
