Set right on the shore of Little Saint Germain Lake, Bayview Cottage welcomes up to six guests to a classic Northwoods retreat. The three‑bedroom, two‑bath layout offers plenty of room to unwind, with knotty‑pine walls, a cozy wood‑burning fireplace and picture windows framing serene water views. Four queen beds and a twin bed provide a restful night's sleep after days on the lake.
The main living space invites conversation around the hearth and features an open flow into the fully equipped kitchen. You’ll find everything you need to prepare home‑cooked meals, from cookware and dishes to a microwave, coffee maker and full‑sized fridge. An attached garage makes it easy to store gear, and modern touches like a flat‑screen TV and DVD player ensure rainy days are just as enjoyable.
When the weather is fine, step out to your own pier with bench seating or gather at the lakeside campfire ring to watch the stars come out. A gentle, sandy frontage is perfect for swimming and wading, and you can take in the sunrise with your morning coffee from the shoreline. Whether you’re planning a summer getaway or a cozy winter stay, Bayview Cottage makes a comfortable home base.
What sets Bayview Cottage apart is its blend of rustic charm and thoughtful amenities. The knotty‑pine interior and crackling fireplace create a warm, cabin‑style ambiance, yet you’ll enjoy modern conveniences like Wi‑Fi, a flat‑screen TV and a well‑appointed kitchen. Expansive windows showcase the tranquil beauty of Little Saint Germain Lake, bringing the outdoors in.
Outside, the property features a private pier complete with bench seating and a fire pit just steps from the water. The attached garage provides extra storage for fishing gear, bikes or snowmobiles, and the sandy shoreline offers an easy entry into the lake for swimmers of all ages. This combination of comfort and lakeside access makes the cottage a special find.
Spend your days right at the cottage paddling, swimming and fishing on Little Saint Germain Lake. Launch a kayak from the pier, watch for loons and eagles, or simply relax on the dock with a good book. In the evenings, roast marshmallows around the fire and listen to the gentle lapping of the waves.
St. Germain offers an array of nearby trails for hiking and biking, including the Awassa Nature Preserve and the Heart of Vilas County bike trail. Rent a pontoon or fishing boat from a local marina, tee off at one of the area golf courses or explore the charming shops and eateries in town.
Seasonal adventures are abundant: cast for walleye and musky in spring and summer, admire colorful foliage on scenic drives in autumn, and when the snow falls, enjoy miles of groomed snowmobile and cross‑country ski trails. Take a short drive to Eagle River for festivals, museums and shops, or venture into the Northern Highland‑American Legion State Forest for hiking, wildlife viewing and quiet serenity.
