About This Home

TWO CABINS on beautiful Deer Lake! This special waterfront property offers the space and flexibility to bring everyone together while still giving family and guests room of their own. The main cabin features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, while the second cabin offers an additional 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom—for a total of 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms between the two cabins. With two separate living spaces, there’s plenty of room to host family and friends for weekends at the lake, summer vacations, and everything in between. This property is all about enjoying life on the water. Deer Lake is often called the “Lake of the Changing Colors” for the beautiful range of colors reflected across its crystal-clear waters on sunny days, and it’s easy to see why it has earned the nickname “Caribbean of the North.” Known for its exceptionally clear water and beautiful Northwoods scenery, Deer Lake stretches approximately five miles long and a mile and a half wide, with depths reaching 121 feet. Whether you’re heading out for a day of boating, fishing for muskie and bass, paddling a canoe or kayak, or simply relaxing along the shore listening to the loons, there is something special about being on Deer Lake. The hard, sandy shoreline creates an incredible beach area, perfect for swimming, floating, and spending long summer days at the water’s edge. Enjoy your morning coffee on the lakeside deck, head out on the lake for the afternoon, and wind down at night surrounded by the peaceful Northwoods setting. Whether you’re looking for a family lake retreat, a place to gather and entertain, or simply your own piece of one of the area’s most beautiful lakes, this property offers an incredible opportunity to enjoy the Deer Lake lifestyle—with TWO CABINS, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living spaces, and plenty of room for everyone!
