 Overlooking the 1200 acre Star Lake and the Highland
State Forest sits one of the most unique and beautiful log homes ever
built, the Star Lake Retreat in Star Lake, Wisconsin. Located in
northern Wisconsin’s Vilas County just south of Michigan’s Upper
Peninsula, it’s 10 miles north of Eagle River. 

The property is almost entirely surrounded by state land with an
abundance of breath-taking natural beauty. There are numerous trails
for hiking in the spring,summer and fall and for cross-country skiing
in the winter. 

A great North Woods experience, the pet friendly Star Lake Retreat was
constructed in 1995 of 250 year old hemlock pines felled by a tornado.
Situated on a ridge, this log home has a fieldstone base and stone
terraced lawns. It’s truly a work of art. The three bedroom,
year round vacation rental property has three levels with
large windows facing the lake and woods, a balcony off
the master bedroom. Beneath the balcony is a large
picnic area overlooking Star Lake, with an octagonal cedar picnic
table, charcoal grill and large fire pit for campfires. The home has
Norwegian touches with stenciled pine floors, a huge stone fireplace
and glider rockers to relax in as you enjoy views of the lake. A
nearby sandy beach and boat launch provides access for guests to enjoy
the pristine and peaceful lake.
	
	

Nestled on two acres of private land in northern Wisconsin and
surrounded by miles of state forest, this year-around home was built
with care using Scandinavian scribed logs and 150 tons of fieldstone.
It offers a quiet, natural setting for your vacation or retreat with
all the modern comforts. There’s no need to leave your pet at home as
the accommodations are pet friendly.
