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, the Star Lake Retreat is 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.
