Description
Butternut Lake Lodge is a rare Northwoods opportunity offering exceptional versatility, strong income potential, and true turnkey operation. Currently run as a successful resort property, this estate can serve as a private single-family home, multi-generational retreat, bed & breakfast, corporate getaway, or full-scale resort—delivering “The Northwoods experience elevated.” Set on 3.8 acres with approximately 300’ of frontage on Butternut Lake, the property features highly sought-after western exposure for breathtaking sunsets and is positioned near the deepest point of the lake. Butternut Lake is a 1,006-acre full recreation lake known for excellent fishing, boating, two lakeside restaurants, and popular sandbars. The main Lodge offers authentic log construction with modern comforts, including 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a chef’s kitchen with granite countertops, spacious dining area, and a dramatic living room with soaring log ceilings and a stone fireplace. High-speed fiber internet and full-property Wi-Fi enhance usability. A separate Suites building includes four themed suites—Hunter, Pioneer, Angler, and Logger—each with private baths, kitchenettes, fireplaces, and patio access. Additional amenities include the “Tackle Box” guest commons and a Provisions gift shop. Outdoor highlights include a boathouse with rooftop sunset deck, premium pier system, and excellent waterfront access. The level yard offers fire pits, volleyball court, and ample recreation space, along with kayaks and a canoe. With an established website, booking system, and a loyal repeat guest base built largely through word-of-mouth, there is significant upside through expanded marketing and advertising. A truly unique lakeside retreat and investment opportunity. Additional information regarding improvements and property detail available upon request.
