About this property

Bayview 1

  • Bayview 1 – Turtle Flambeau Flowage

    Escape to Bayview 1, a spacious Northwoods retreat located directly on the Turtle Flambeau Flowage. With beautiful water views, plenty of sleeping space, excellent lake access, and amenities built around fishing, boating, swimming, and outdoor recreation, Bayview 1 is a great choice for families, groups of friends, anglers, ATV/UTV riders, and snowmobilers.

    The home features 3 bedrooms plus a loft, with a total of 5 queen beds and 5 twin beds, giving larger groups plenty of flexibility. Inside, you’ll find warm Northwoods décor, a comfortable open-concept kitchen and living area, and large windows that bring in natural light while showcasing views of the water.

    A separate game room gives guests another place to relax, spend time together, or unwind after a day on the lake or trails.

    Lake Access & Boating

    Bayview 1 offers direct access to the Turtle Flambeau Flowage, one of the most well-known outdoor recreation areas in northern Wisconsin.

    Guests have access to a dock with parking for up to two boats, making it easy to keep your boat at the property throughout your stay. Electrical power is available at the dock, which is especially convenient for charging trolling motor batteries and other boating equipment.

    For guests who want to get on the water without bringing their own boat, the property also provides access to canoes, kayaks, and rowboats.

    The waterfront offers good swimming, giving families another way to enjoy warm summer days right at the property.

    Great for Fishing Trips

    The Turtle Flambeau Flowage is a natural fit for fishing vacations, and Bayview 1 is set up well for anglers. With two-boat dock parking, power at the dock, and easy access to the water, you can spend more time fishing and less time launching and loading your boat.

    An outdoor fish-cleaning area is also available, providing a convenient place to clean your catch after a day on the water.

    Whether your plans involve early mornings on the lake, an afternoon paddle, or a full day of fishing, the waterfront setup makes Bayview 1 an excellent base camp.

    ATV, UTV & Snowmobile Trips

    Bayview 1 is also a great option for guests coming to the Mercer area for ATV/UTV riding and snowmobiling. The property offers good access to area ATV/UTV and snowmobile trails, making it easy to combine a lake vacation with miles of Northwoods riding.

    There is also plenty of parking for trucks and trailers, an important feature for groups bringing boats, ATVs, UTVs, or snowmobiles.

    During the warmer months, spend the day exploring the trails and return to the lake for an evening on the water. In winter, Bayview 1 becomes a comfortable home base for snowmobile trips throughout the Mercer and Turtle Flambeau Flowage area.

    Northwoods Lake Living

    One of the best parts of Bayview 1 is simply the setting. Start the morning looking out over the water, spend the afternoon boating, swimming, fishing, paddling, or riding the trails, and return to a comfortable Northwoods-style home at the end of the day.

    With 3 bedrooms plus a loft, 5 queen beds, 5 twin beds, a game room, full kitchen, beautiful lake views, canoes, kayaks, rowboats, good swimming, two-boat dock parking, dock power, an outdoor fish-cleaning area, trail access, and plenty of trailer parking, Bayview 1 offers a strong combination of space, location, and outdoor recreation.

    Whether you're planning a fishing trip, family lake vacation, ATV/UTV getaway, snowmobile trip, or simply a few days relaxing on the Turtle Flambeau Flowage, Bayview 1 gives you a comfortable place to experience the Northwoods.

Cabin had plenty of space for our family and dog. The weather was brutal but the cabin was sealed and warm throughout our trip. We would definitely rent again.

The house was great, and the managers went above and beyond! We would definitely stay here again. The only thing I would add is that it would have been nice to know that there was a cabin very close on the left that will share the some of the yard and parking space. If we stay again, we will rent both and just have family use the second space.
