Each cabin offers a private retreat while being conveniently situated next to the other, making them ideal for larger groups or families traveling together who want both privacy and proximity.



Inside, you’ll find a warm log interior with tongue-and-groove finishes, a fully equipped kitchen, and a cozy living area with a gas log fireplace and TV/DVD player — ideal for relaxing after a day of outdoor fun. Each cabin features a queen bed on the main floor, a queen in the loft, and a full-size futon in the great room, plus high-speed internet to stay connected. The spa-like bathroom includes a large whirlpool tub with shower, perfect for unwinding in comfort at the end of the day.



Outside, you’ll enjoy a charcoal grill, fire pit, picnic table, and your own fish cleaning station — great for evening cookouts under the stars. Just a half mile from the cabin, guests also have access to a private dock area on the Turtle-Flambeau Flowage, where you can store your boat, swim, fish, kayak, or paddleboard in the clear, quiet water.



Adventure awaits right from your doorstep. ATV/UTV and snowmobile trails are directly accessible, offering endless miles of riding through forests, lakes, and wilderness. The Mercer area is also known for exceptional fishing, boating, kayaking, biking, wildlife watching, and scenic drives.

Fall brings brilliant foliage, crisp air, and peaceful forest hikes. Winter opens the door to snowmobiling on some of Wisconsin’s best trails, along with ice fishing, snowshoeing, and cozy nights by the fire. Spring offers quiet beauty, blooming wildflowers, rising wildlife activity, and refreshing early-season fishing conditions.
