About this property

Rustic Shack on the magnificent Fence Lake!

This charming 24 x 24 open-concept cabin is one of the oldest, if not the oldest, standing buildings on the largest lake within Lac Du Flambeau and Minocqua — a stunning 500-acre body of water nestled deep in Wisconsin’s Northwoods.

Originally built in the 1940s by the same architect who designed many of the surrounding homes on this side of the lake, the Rustic Shack is steeped in history. Though it was once considered a luxury for its time, it now offers a rugged yet warm, and cozy retreat, preserving the character and simplicity of the era.

Inside, you’ll find all the essentials: high-speed Wi-Fi, a cozy bunkbed setup, a functional kitchenette, and a private bathroom. The layout is open and inviting — ideal for solo travelers or couples looking to unplug and reconnect with nature.

Despite all the rustic, charming qualities you’ll realize that you're not here for the walls — you're here for the million-dollar view! Step out your front door and take in the vast, sparkling lake just steps away. Spend your days fishing, paddling, swimming, hiking, or simply sitting by the shore doing absolutely nothing. The real luxury is outside, where the sounds of loons and wind through the pines replace city noise, and sunsets over the water are the only clock you'll need.

Beautiful & Convienent but wear shoes inside

The host is kind and accommodating, check in and out was super easy, and the lake veiw is beautiful. The area is very quiet and peaceful. The floore was pretty dirty, definitely leave shoes on inside, but it did seem to partially be from renovations.
