WHITETAIL CROSSING – A NEW EXPERIENCE FOR ALL SEASONS IN THE NORTHWOODS
Recently renovated, this 2200-sf tastefully furnished cabin is a four-minute walk to your private pier on the south shore of Lake Content. As with our adjacent property, Eagles Bluff, we offer everything you need for a great time in the Wisconsin Northwoods but without a steep price. Whitetail Crossing greets you through a coat room off the back deck as you continue into a spacious well-stocked kitchen, dining, bar and Great Room. At the end of the hall, you’ll find three large bedrooms and a full bath. The large wrap-around elevated deck provides a conversation area and dining area with a gas grill where your group can enjoy the outdoor privacy and splendor of tall trees and a small pond with a trickling waterfall. The lower level boasts a 4th bedroom, a 2nd full bath and over 500 sf of recreation space with a 6-seat bar, card table, multi-function game table, beverage refrigerator, and 2nd living room area. Walk or drive to your private dock which gives you access to 1880 acres of the Big St Germain Lake chain for great fishing, boating and swimming. Speaking of access to fun, when you‘ve had enough swimming, watersports, and fishing (if at all possible!) you will find the Heart of Vilas County 52-mile paved bike trail 300 feet from our driveway. Explore our property or the Awassa Nature Preserve and Hiking Trail which is only ¾ mile away. Golf? The St Germain Golf Course is only a 2-minute drive. For you snowmobile enthusiasts, the Bo-Boen trail is directly accessible from our driveway. At the end of the day, you can enjoy the private solace of a fire in the furnished firepit area and view a night sky filled with stars (at times even the northern lights!). Even with all this privacy, the St Germain community park, playground, and grocery store are only a mile and a half away! A bait shop and several places where you can rent boats, paddleboards, bicycles, snowmobiles and other toys are available in town. Other exterior and site improvements are in process, so you have more to look forward to when you return. Also remember that Eagles Bluff, our large luxury lake home on 20 acres, is right next door and can be jointly rented with either the 3 or 4-bedroom Whitetail Crossing. Our booking calendar allows any stay of 2 days or more for all but July and August where you can choose a full week starting on a Friday. Book your vacation now at any of our Northwoods paradises!
Introducing Bonnie and Lou Jantzen - your hosts! Their story began over 38 years ago when Bonnie and family first came up from southeast Wisconsin to vacation in St Germain. Lou's first time was in 2015, when he fell in love – with the Northwoods as well as Bonnie! As it became harder to find a lake house rental on their favorite lake chain big enough to accommodate their growing family and friends, they decided to buy a lot and build their dream lake house. In 2023, it became a reality and was named Eagles Bluff! And that's not just a name - sit high on our lakeside deck and watch eagles soar above our breathtaking bluff adjacent to the shore. In 2025, they purchased an adjacent property and renovated it themselves and named it Whitetail Crossing. The name was inspired by the Whitetail deer often found crossing over to the Eagles Bluff property. A connecting and additional driveway provided another private access to Lake Content. But the real bonus is providing even more space for large groups of family and friends to get together for that dream vacation in the Wisconsin Northwoods!
