"Lakeside Serenity: Your Perfect Northwoods Exhale"
Come in and let this destination be your EXHALE. Let the sounds of the bubbling creek and gentle waterfowl be your INHALE. Living Stone Lodge and Retreat isn't merely a place to stay—it's a place to BE.
When you wind down our private drive and step inside the lodge, the distractions of the modern world fall away. You'll immediately sense you've entered a classic Northwoods sanctuary, thoughtfully appointed with luxurious comforts that honor both tradition and indulgence.
Restful Retreats
Choose from six plush queen beds across five distinctive bedrooms. With windows ajar, each room welcomes nature's lullaby—the melodic creek, rustling pines, and distant loon calls. Sleep deeply in premium linens, awakening at your leisure or rising early to witness the spectacular sunrise painting Marsh Miller Lake in golden hues.
Morning Rituals
Begin your day at our lavish beverage bar featuring various coffees, teas, and or hot chocolate. Savor that first cup on the creekside porch as the mist rises from the water.
Choose Your Adventure
Your greatest challenge at Living Stone Lodge? Deciding which perfect relaxation spot calls to you first.
Water Wonders: Half the property is embraced by a crystal-clear creek where children can hunt for frogs and arrowheads while you supervise from one of two picnic tables—or better yet, join in the exploration! Cross our charming footbridge to discover hidden natural treasures on the opposite bank.
Lake Life: Fronting the property is Marsh Miller Lake—a pristine 441-acre fishing paradise renowned for exceptional bass, northern pike, and panfish year-round. Cast from the dock, glide across the water in our complimentary kayaks, or launch your own boat at the nearby public access ($2).
Indoor Sanctuaries: For days of quiet reflection, discover numerous thoughtfully designed spaces throughout the lodge:
• The lakeside bedroom suite with its cozy couch, glider rocker and ottoman
• Our panoramic lakeside living room perfect for board games and conversation
• The fireside living room featuring a sumptuous leather sectional with reclining chaise and buttery-soft throw blankets
• A 48" smart TV for evening entertainment
Descend the spiral staircase to our game room for friendly competition at the pool table, ping-pong, or foosball.
Night Sky Wonders
Though not officially designated as a "dark sky" preserve, our secluded location offers spectacular celestial viewing that rivals any certified sanctuary. As twilight fades, witness the emergence of countless stars—all unhindered by city light pollution.
Settle into our adirondack chairs around a crackling campfire (wood provided), where the symphony of bullfrogs creates nature's perfect soundtrack. Watch in wonder as fireflies perform their enchanting light dance across the property—a magical display that captivates guests of all ages. These simple yet profound moments often become the most treasured memories of a stay at Living Stone Lodge.
Culinary Comforts
Our fully-equipped kitchen awaits your culinary creativity—or simply stock the full-size refrigerator, freezer and pantry with prepared favorites. Gather around our magnificent dining table, comfortably seating twelve for memorable meals and lingering conversation.
Beyond the Lodge
While seclusion is yours to treasure, adventure beckons nearby at Chippewa County Forest, extensive ATV/snowmobile trails, Cedar Bay Resort, Birch Point Resort, Hickory Ridge Trails, The Ice Age Trail, and the beloved Rock Lake Bar and Grill for exceptional local dining.
At Living Stone Lodge, time slows, connections deepen, and spirits renew. Your perfect exhale awaits.
