This is what people come to Minocqua for. Tucked into a quieter bay on Lake Minocqua, this authentic log home puts the Minocqua Chain right outside your door—head out for boating, fishing, skiing, tubing, waterfront dining and all the fun of the Chain, then come home to a peaceful setting under towering pines. Approx. 157' of Lake Minocqua frontage, 2,502 finished sq ft, 3 main-level bedrooms, 3 full baths, a spacious loft and detached 1/2-log 2-car garage. Inside, soaring wood ceilings, full-log walls, walls of lake-facing glass and a natural fieldstone fireplace deliver the Northwoods character people try to recreate today. The lakeside primary suite offers generous space, a large walk-in closet and wonderful natural light. The home's story is part of what makes it special—it was featured in Log Home Living in June 2000 after an extensive addition and renovation carefully designed to blend with the original log structure, preserving the character while creating more comfortable living and entertaining space. The kitchen was also later featured in Country's Best Kitchens. Slip down along the log railing to a bright lower level with rec room, wet bar, full bath, laundry, guest/flex space and additional bunk room. Outside, an expansive deck, bluestone patio, firepit, mature landscaping and extensive stonework create multiple places to gather. At the shoreline, the covered boat slip was originally designed with a carriage lift for a classic ski boat, later converted for a pontoon and potentially adaptable for other boats. Additional Bullhead Lake ownership across Old Hwy 70 includes a sandy beach area with walking trail access, giving you another completely different piece of Northwoods water to enjoy. City water and sewer, minutes from downtown Minocqua, shopping, dining and health care. Not cookie-cutter and not something easily duplicated—this is a genuine Minocqua Chain property with history, character and a whole lot of fun built into it.
