An Unparalleled
Lakeside Sanctuary

This executive lake home on the coveted shores of Johnson Lake is the ultimate retreat for those seeking luxury, comfort, and lakeside recreation. With breathtaking million-dollar views, the home exudes a 'up north' feel from every corner — tongue and groove cedar interiors, vaulted ceilings, and a spacious open floor plan.

The main level great room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and opens to a light-filled solarium with gas fireplace. The fully stocked kitchen features custom cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and everything you need to cook for a crowd. The lower level adds a second living room with gas fireplace, a dedicated bar area, private sauna, and a ¾ bath adjacent to the sauna. Since 2023, nearly every aspect of this home has been thoughtfully updated — stylish, modern, and completely turnkey.

"Our family of five had a fantastic weekend. We enjoyed paddle boarding, fishing from the dock, swimming in the crystal-clear lake, and the game room. Mornings in the solarium were a treat — watching eagles and listening to loons. Evenings around the Solo Stove fire pit, roasting marshmallows, were the perfect end to our days."

"Rick provided a well-stocked kitchen and the beds were extremely comfortable. We lived on the lake all day and played games in the sunroom all evening. The sunsets were insane. There were 6 of us ranging from 15 to adult and everyone said they had the right balance of chill and fun. We highly recommend adding the pontoon."

"We rented the pontoon to cruise around the lake — very peaceful. We used the sauna daily. The game room was great especially on rainy days. The paddle boards and trampoline were a hit. The screened-in porch has a great view of the lake and is where we had most of our meals. We would definitely stay again."

"Perfect lake home getaway! Our family including the little ones had a great time. With the game room, fire pit, beach, paddle board and pontoon, there was something for everyone! We loved the enclosed glass room overlooking the lake. Beautiful sunsets. We will stay here again."

My favorite part was cooking on the big Blackstone grill! The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. Beautiful sunsets. Can't wait to book our next trip!"

This lake house has everything a big or small family would need for an amazing time and great family bonding. We absolutely loved the place. Thank you so much, Rick."

About
Your Hosts

VRBO Premier Host

This lake home has been in our family for over 40 years — two generations of memories made right here on Johnson Lake. A fire destroyed the original cabin in 1994, and in 1995 Rick's parents rebuilt a bigger, better lake home, adding a sauna and air conditioning. We added the solarium in 2004, and since 2023, Rick and Amy have made major updates throughout — including converting the garage into the 600+ sq ft heated game room that guests love today.

When we're not enjoying it ourselves, we take real delight in sharing it. Our goal is to provide an amazing Northwoods experience every season. We're responsive, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making your stay exceptional.

"Rick was very helpful with check-in. Our 3 and 1 year old daughters loved playing on the beach — tons of sunfish came right up to them in knee-high water. My dad and I caught a lot of northerns and bass. The game room was a hit! We played a lot of pinball and Pac-Man."
