Scenically situated on the grounds of the Discovery Center in a stand of pines overlooking Statehouse Lake, this beautiful, lakefront home is the perfect Northwoods getaway! Come escape into lovely Manitowish Waters for a wonderful holiday.

During the day, you can go hiking, biking, skiing, or snowshoeing on the Discovery Center's 12-mile trail system, or take out a kayak or canoe on Statehouse Lake.

Summary: I recently stayed at this property and want to share my experience to help future guests. Unfortunately, I encountered several issues that affected my stay. First, the directions to the house were unclear, which led to significant confusion and a 45-minute search. Clearer guidance would greatly enhance the arrival experience. Upon arrival, I found the house in a less-than-ideal condition. It appeared to have not been thoroughly cleaned, with dusty ceiling fans, dirty windowsills, and unwashed dishes left in the dishwasher. Additionally, the bedding did not seem clean, and several screens had large holes, making it impossible to open the doors for fresh air. I also noticed that the property description did not mention the absence of Wi-Fi or cable television, which was a disappointment. While I appreciate the potential of this home, I believe that addressing these cleanliness and clarity issues would significantly improve the experience for future guests.
