About this property

New! Big Chetac Lakefront Retreat – Private Dock, Sunset Views & Serenity

Brand new to the vacation rental market! Welcome to your private retreat on Big Chetac Lake — a private, peaceful retreat where timeless lake life meets thoughtful comfort.

Nestled near the end of a quiet road with only trees and water around you, this lakefront home offers an experience that’s rare in today’s world: true privacy, stunning views, and space to simply be.

The property spans 1.76 acres with 82 feet of lake frontage and looks out toward a scenic island, making every sunset a showstopper. Whether you’re grilling outside, playing lawn games in the large yard, or launching kayaks from the gentle shoreline, this is a place made for memory-making.

Guests love the tree-lined yard with pockets of shade for cooling off between sunny swims and dockside fishing. Inside, the home features over 2,800 sq ft of space designed for connection and ease, including a breakfast bar, a double fridge and freezer, and a large custom dining table that seats ten.

The lower level walkout — with stained concrete flooring and direct access from the lake — is the perfect spot to rinse off, toss swimsuits into the washer, and settle in for a cozy evening by the fire. You’ll also find ample storage, a large main-floor bathroom with generous counter space, and gathering zones that work beautifully for families, groups, or weekend getaways.

Big Chetac Lake is known for world-class fishing, and guests can tie their boat right at the dock. A public boat launch is located conveniently nearby, and local rental companies deliver pontoons and other boats right to the property.

For quieter adventures, take out the kayaks provided and enjoy a peaceful paddle around the bay. You’re just minutes from Bear Paw Campground and Resort, where you’ll find firewood, food, and family fun — including arcade games and indoor activities for those occasional rainy days. Plus, you’re only a short drive from the shops and restaurants of Birchwood, or day trips to Hayward and Rice Lake.

Whether you’re coming for the trails, the fishing, or the slow pace of summer evenings on the dock, this home invites you to arrive and stay awhile — no rushing, no fuss. Just lake time, family time, and the kind of memories that linger long after you leave.

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Bowers

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Jess — a longtime property manager turned passionate Northwoods host. After years of overseeing everything from luxury villas to cozy resorts, I launched Drift North to bring that same level of care to vacation rentals I truly believe in. I take pride in creating a thoughtful, high-quality experience for guests and am always just a call or message away. My goal is simple: to help you relax, explore, and make lasting memories on the lake.

Why they chose this property

Birchwood has always held a special place in my heart. It’s the kind of town where loons greet you in the morning, trails call your name by afternoon, and sunsets over the lake feel like something out of a storybook. With quick access to Hayward and Rice Lake, plus iconic trails like the Tuscobia. It’s a hidden gem where outdoor fun and small-town charm come together beautifully.

What makes this property unique

This retreat blends modern comfort with classic Northwoods charm. With over 2,800 square feet of well-designed space, it’s perfect for gathering — whether around the large dining table, by the lakeside firepit, or out on the water. Guests love the thoughtful details, from the brand-new appliances and cozy furnishings to the private dock and nearby UTV trails. It’s a place that invites connection, with nature and with each other.
