Great location and accommodations !
We really enjoyed our stay here. Very comfortable with amazing views overlooking the lake. A boat launch is right on site with an excellent dock if you bring your own boat. Very cool original appliances throughout. Will definitely be back !!

Perfect little get away!
This place is appropriately named! Amazing Grace is an understatement. Mike and Wanda are gracious hosts. The boat house is antique, awesomely decorated and immaculate. The lake is full of fish, and very uninhabited so it is peaceful also. Thanks Mike and Wanda, we so enjoyed our stay! John and Laurie

No regrets! Fabulous
Stayed with my parents and my daughter and her friend. The 12yr old girls loved hanging out in the gazebo octagon house and taking out the paddle board to the floating dock and floating trampoline. My parents enjoyed the tranquility and wildlife of the location. How can you beat the proximity to the beautiful quiet lake! I enjoyed that everyone was happy. I’m also a sucker for mid-century and this place had it all!!! Mike and Wanda were awesome, the best hosts you could ask for, sweet sweet people who genuinely care about your experience. Book this gem! So worth it. Thank you Mike and Wanda! -Jill S.

Perfect Up North Get Away
Mike and Wanda made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The retro property was spotless and pictured accurately. They live on the same property so checked in to make sure we had everything we needed several times during our stay- but did not interfere in any way. They were available to answer questions or provide a bike route or restaurant recommendation. There is another rental cabin on the property- but they did not interfere with our stay in any way. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the ‘toys” such as canoe, kayaks, stand up paddle boards, row boat and available motor. We also enjoyed the many paved bike routes near by. We thoroughly enjoyed the wildlife: eagles, loons, otters and deer. We can’t recommend this property enough and look forward to returning in the future. Thanks for making our vacation GREAT!!!!!!

Relaxing North Woods Retreat
We really enjoyed our stay at Amazing Grace. It is the perfect location to get away and relax. Waking up listening to the loons and watching the eagles is a great way to start the day. Mike and Wanda were great host and made sure everything we needed was taken care of. I would recommend this to anybody looking for a north woods getaway. Fishing was also pretty good on the lakes as well!

Boat House from Leave It To Beaver Era
The Amazing Grace boat house is amazing. It is a "wet" boathouse, which means that you can actually place a boat inside while it stays in the water. These are rare and due to environmental impacts can't be constructed any longer. This boat house dates to the 1950s and has been lovingly restored to reflect that era. It must have featured the cutting edge elements for the time and most of these are still in good working order. For those of you not fond of living like the Beaver, even if the boat house is someplace any self-respecting beaver would love to call home; do not fear. Mike and Wanda have added modern amenities like a furnace and TV along with WiFi to bring it into the 21st century. The boat house features a generous living / dining room with a truly unique 1950s era kitchen, but there is a microwave. This combines to represent the front 2/3 of the house in an open concept plan. There are two decent sized bedrooms that are roughly the same size. Each features wonderful built in shelving and drawer/dresser systems. The bathroom is a bit small; but functional. There is no central AC, though the second bedroom just have a mobile unit. I suspect it is never really needed though. The home has windows everywhere and positioned out over the lake you catch all the cooling lake breezes. While I never tried it I am convinced I could have caught fish off the deck. The compound, there is another rental property behind you owned by Mike and Wanda too, is one of only three properties on the whole lake. The White Birch Village resort is next door; but it is separated from Mike and Wanda's by the lake's outlet and other than seeing the people there we never really noticed the resort. White Birch lake is a few hundred acres, but about 1/3 of it is shallow and only useful for kayaking. The fishing was hot and heavy while we were there. There is an island across from the property and a really nice sand bar that extends out for swimming. A channel connects you to 500 acre Ballard lake. Only about 30% of this lake has homes with the rest being forest. It has better fishing and several great sand bars for swimming. If this isn't enough to convince you to stay at the Amazing Grace Boathouse then you must not really want to stay in the Wisconsin Northwoods.

Stunning Stays
This is our second stay in the boathouse. Everyday is stunning here. The variety of things to do in this area are plentiful. The ability to comfortably do nothing in a cozy vintage setting on top of the water is priceless. The kitchen is a vintage galley kitchen with an available outdoor grill. Bringing extra coolers this year was great. Mike and Wanda are always attentive to make your stay the best it can be. We will be counting down the days until our return here!
