Surrounding Area:
Perched on a 15-foot granite cliff, this cabin truly soars above the rest! An old-growth forest provides privacy and seclusion for those seeking that far-away feeling. But when you want to explore, just follow the trail down to the Oconto River for a blissful kayaking or paddle boarding at White Water Sports Rentals.
Hike along the river, eventually coming to a swimming hole with a sandy bottom and a natural 70-foot slippery slide that the kiddos are bound to love! For fishing, wakeboarding, or water skiing, check out one of the numerous lakes within a short distance of the home.
With an incredible location in the Cathedral Pines State Natural Area, hunters can take advantage of the excellent deer and grouse hunting in the area while those who call animals their friends can bird watch or go mushroom hunting.
Treat yourself to a meal out at one of Lakewood's delicious restaurants during your stay! Mulligans offers tasty pizza pies in an outdoor setting, while dancing and drinks make for a great stop at Skinny Dave's. For a waterfront meal, dine at Maiden Lake Supper Club!
