About this property

Welcome To The Nut House On Sunfish Lake! Come For The Relaxation Or Adventure!

Put your feet up in our relaxing 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom family cabin. The master has a king size bed, ensuite, and walk-in closet, while the other two bedrooms feature queen size beds, dressers, and closets for your use. You will find the kitchen fully equipped with pots and pans, cooking utensils, and a gas range. A dishwasher offers convenient clean up. No need to worry if you get dirty playing outside, there is a washer and dryer. Wi-fi and Direct TV IS available (May-October), but you don’t have to tell the kids. Central air will keep everyone cool on those hot summer days.

Enjoy a morning cup of coffee on the front deck as the sun rises, then an evening cocktail on the rear deck as you watch a picturesque sunset over the lake. You will find a large level yard for hours of outdoor games and family fun. Steps lead you down to the lake where the dock is in from May until October. Spend a peaceful afternoon fishing, or sit in your yard chair watching the kids splash and swim in the lake. In the evening you can enjoy a crackling fire as you listen for the call of the resident loons. There is a public boat launch about ¼ of a mile from the cabin.

When you don’t want to cook, there are many area restaurants catering to everyone’s tastes, from Friday night fish fry’s or pizza, to great grilled burgers and ribs. You can find adventure on the nearby ATV/snowmobile trails or relax on the beautiful golf courses. There truly is something for everyone. A short 10 minute drive will lead you to go kart racing and mini-golf, scenic northern Wisconsin train rides, canoeing and tubing down the Namekagon river, or small town shopping. Venture a little further to find activities such as hiking the north shore near a waterfall or horseback riding. Snowshoeing and hiking at the cabin await you if you prefer to stay close. Throughout the year there are several area festivals and activities to enjoy. In July you will find excitement at the Spooner Rodeo and parade. In August you can cheer on the lumberjacks as they compete at the Jack Pine Savage Days. February brings the world renowned cross country ski race, the Birkibeiner. A short drive north you will find the Grandma’s Marathon in June, and the Whistlestop Marathon in October. No matter the season there is always something to do.

Unpack and stay a while, we know you will enjoy the Nut House on Sunfish Lake!

The Nut House was exactly what I was looking for on beautiful Sunfish Lake. We brought our kayaks and it was delightful to just walk down the steps and hop in. The house inside was spotless, tastefully decorated with every amenity one would want. I would stay there again.

Great Cabin

We had a great time staying at this cabin. The cabin was very spacious and well stocked with everything you could possibly need and then some. The water was great. The yard was perfect for yard games and having a fire in the fire pit. We hope to come back again next year.

Our favorite getaway

This was our 5th stay and it’s our favorite WI getaway. Our children and grandchildren join us and it’s always a great week of family time fishing, swimming and relaxing. Sunfish lake is so peaceful and quiet. You won’t find nicer hosts than Rob & Shannon!

A great place to stay up north…

This is our second time staying here and we love it. It is located on a small lake that has everything you may need…good fishing, swimming, a nice large yard and a nice fire pit. The cabin is clean and is well stocked with things to do such as board games, movies, and video games along with everything else that you may need during your stay. The bedrooms were large enough and comfortable. Overall we had a great, relaxing stay and look forward to coming back.

Relaxing Vacay

We had a great time at the Nuthouse. We were out on lake property yet close enough to town to shop and eat out. We had a blast fishing and enjoyed the lake. The house had all the modern conveniences: air conditioning, direct TV and internet. It was a great week.

50th Anniversary

The property is very nice. Parking is good, access to the house is good.It’s nice being close to the lake. Having a place to have a camp fire is unique. ( Even though we didn’t use it, it was there if we wanted to) The cabin is very nice, as well. Very spacious and it met the needs we had for the time we spent there. Would We come back.. Yes

Wonderful cabin!

Once again our state was fantastic. The cabin is always so clean and stocked with many items if you happen to forget something. The owner always responds right away to any questions you might have. It's our second time staying and we are sure to go back again! The boat needs a little work is all!

Pleasant stay at the cabin

Wasn't much snow for us, so we spent a fair amount of time indoors. Lots to do around the house - including an impressive collection of radio dramas - as well as nearby in Spooner and Hayward, as well as a handful of trails. Lake was frozen enough to walk on. Best part was the peace and quiet.
