A Northwoods Shangri-la / Jagdschloss Four Mile Lake / an extraordinary 83 acres

This property, situated on the shores of Four Mile Lake, is in (that's right, in) the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest in the Great Northwoods of Wisconsin.
The Three Lakes Chain is part of the Eagle River-Three Lakes Chain of Lakes. This series of 28 lakes is the largest freshwater chain of lakes in the world. The Three Lakes part of the chain starts with the Burnt Rollways Reservoir and includes 20 lakes ranging in size from 123 acres to 1012 acres.
There are two sections to this property. 20 acres of lakefront land and 63 acres of forest land. The 2200sf log cabin sits on a point giving almost a 180 degree view of the beautiful lake and pristine shorelines. This is the most UNoccupied lake in the chain. Very few lakeside homes creating an unspoiled view of the lake. The 63 acres of forest land right across Old Military Road has miles of trails for exploration by hike or by bike.
The log home is amazing with 2400 square feet of open ceiling living space. Three bedrooms in the main home and a separate, but attached bedroom with ensuite bathroom in what we call the annex.
The Sam Campbell Trail is a short distance away and his island home visible from the property. If you don't know who Sam Campbell is, take a few minutes to "Google" and get to know him. One of his books, "Too Much Salt and Pepper" is onsite for the reading.
This place is amazing!
This is not just a summer paradise. Imagine an winter wonderland only Hollywood could cook up and you've got a natural one here in the Northwoods! Snowmobile season starts about mid-December. We've got one of the best trail systems in the country. Bring your sleds or rent from one of the area shops. Access to the trail system is right across the lake. Easy access from the driveway through our small crick-side forest and onto the lake. Nature, restaurants and taverns a short distance away.

In the photos you'll find a short video (featuring yours truly) which showcases this property as a partner organization of the Nicolet-Wolf River Scenic Byway, one of five Wisconsin scenic byways, a 145 mile route through the heart of the Chequamegon/Nicolet Forest. We are at the very north end of the byway making it very convenient for those of you traveling from the south to enjoy this great ride. It is my preferred route from Milwaukee.

Best location we've found
We've been vacationing on the Three Lakes Chain for almost 20 years, this is the best location of all. Fourmile lake is quiet and scenic. The décor is eccentric but nice and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The deck and dock are very nice. We had a great time. The only reservation for us was that cell phone service, and consequently internet, was spotty.

Beautiful lakeside home
Beautiful lakeside home, great view of the quietest lake on the chain, Four Mile Lake. It offers comfortable beds and baths, a well stocked kitchen, extra refrigerator space, plenty of dock space and a very homey feel. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Beautiful lake cabin
Spent a week with my wife and four kids (all 10 and under). Cabin was overall great - the host was friendly and helpful, and the cabin was well-stocked and kept up very nicely. The basement was a nice area to unwind, with ping pong and a pool table. Kitchen was well stocked with appliances and dishes for the week. The lake and docks were awesome - we were able to use the rowboat and kayaks to enjoy some fishing and boating! The view is great, and the fire pit area has some great sunsets and stargazing opportunities! The one thing to know is the master bedroom is in the loft - and it’s not very baby friendly, as the staircase is a bit scary for little ones. We ended up giving the big kids the master and took another room, which wasn’t a huge problem, but worth being aware of.

Outstanding location
This property is on nice-sized, quiet lake and provides great exposure to the east, south and west! The place has everything you need to be self-reliant for an entire week if you choose to go that route. Very comfortable spaces for gathering as well as individual spots for quiet time. Second time for us there and I'm sure there will be a third.

Beautiful location on a quiet lake at the end of the Chain..
We picked the week of August with wind and intermittent rain, which cut into some of our ski time. The basement rec. room more than made up for our time on shore. A great place for kids to get away from the "old folks" for a while. Our host checked in with us early in our stay. We all agreed this should be a repeat. Once you train yourself not to stare at the neighbor's bizzarely over demarcated property fence line you can enjoy the beauty of the lake and surrounding forest land.
