About this property

Privacy and Convenience in Wisconsin's Northwoods Paradise

Green Sky Cabin is a very nice 4 bedroom, 3 bath, 3600 square foot cabin on 9+ acres, conveniently located in St Germain, WI.

9 acres offers complete privacy from neighbors. This unique property features a private trail through the woods to 50 feet of lake frontage on Big St. Germain Lake. Green Sky Cabin is open all year round.

The cabin is perfect for larger families or groups. The cabin features 11 total beds: 1 king, 2 queen, 2 full, and 6 twins. There is 1 bedroom upstairs, 1 bedroom on the main floor, 1 bedroom on the lower level, and another bonus loft (awesome for kids or teens) above the attached garage. There are 3 full bathrooms, 1 on each level.

While there is no lakeview from the property, we have a private trail through the woods that leads to our 50’ of frontage on Big St. Germain Lake. Our frontage features a gentle slope to a sandy shoreline. Use the 2 golf carts provided to our guests to shuttle back and forth from the water, or enjoy a peaceful walk through the woods.

We offer boat rental too! We have a 22 foot 15-passenger pontoon and a 14 foot fishing boat available to rent for your stay. If you choose to rent a boat it will be tied up to the dock, ready for your trip, offering ultimated convenience. Contact Fred (owner) for boat reservations.

A large, new dock was installed in 2022 and allows room to tie up your boat or a rental. Our beach area features a picnic table and multiple benches on the dock. Our guests also get to use our 2 kayaks. We share the frontage with a retired couple who keep their pontoon tied up on our dock, so expect to see an extra pontoon tied up to the dock during the boating season.

Amazing getaway cabin
We had a wonderful stay here. The pictures didn’t do it justice. The host was responsive whenever we had questions. The kids loved the air hockey table and basement space to play. The adults enjoyed the evenings eating at the large table on the porch and the fire ring outside. The golf carts made it easy to get everyone down to the lake to paddle, swim or pontoon on the boat we rented. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

Serenity
Wonderful winter escape at this fabulous home in the perfect location. We were able to snowmobile right from the house on to the trail system which was wonderful for our annual snowmobiling trip. Coming back each day to a warm and relaxing cabin was made even better by having great food spots for dinner within easy walking distance. Outstanding communication from the owner throughout the entire process and we can’t wait to return!

About the host

Hosted by Fred Van Riet

Host profile image
I live in Madison with my wife and 2 teenage kids. I am an avid angler, which is one of the many reasons I love the Northwoods of Wisconsin. Green Sky Cabin and Guide Service is my passion. I want guests to come to the Northwoods and have the time of their lives.

Besides fishing (I am a licensed guide in WI if you are wanting to book a fishing trip) I also play guitar, make musky baits, enjoy woodworking, and hanging out with my family and 2 dogs.

Why they chose this property

St. Germain, WI is pretty much the ideal hub for Northwoods adventures. Not only do you get access to Big St. Germain Lake when you stay at Green Sky, you also are in the perfect location to access the best of the Northwoods. Fishing, snowmobiling, biking, cross country skiing, snow shoeing….you get the idea. This is an outdoor lovers paradise.

What makes this property unique

Rarely can you find a property in such a popular vacation town where you actually get true privacy. We have 9+ acres - the cabin is surrounded by forest. You can’t see neighbors in any direction. Yet, you are right next to it all. Absolute convenience to restaurants, shopping, kids activities, and more.

And, for you supper club enthusiasts, Green Sky Cabin is walking distance from McGregor’s Blink Bonnies Supper Club. This legendary supper club sees lines form at least an hour before the restaurant opens. Every single day they are open.

For the golfers in your group, St. Germain Golf Club is across the street from the cabin. It is a beautiful course carved out of the woods. No 2 holes overlap and there are no homes on the course. You will see wildlife and you may lose a ball or 8.

Green Sky Cabin is extremely comfortable. It was designed for families and groups. Fiber optic internet, high speed WiFi, smart TV’s, heat, and air conditioning, assure you will have comfort and connectivity.
