LAKEVIEW HIDEAWAY

PARK FALLS, WISCONSIN

This retreat home was built on the site of a 100-year-old cabin that had been in the family for generations. The private lake in eastern Wisconsin is shared by a group of family and friends, united by previous generations who brought them to this place. The cabin captures the views and connection to the site while comfortably accommodating up to 12 people.

A screened porch with fold-up windows connects the kitchen and dining area, blending indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly. The laundry room also serves as a mudroom and entryway from the lake, helping to keep sand and wet feet out of the main living areas.

The wraparound windows on the open-concept main floor enhance the connection between daily life and the beautiful lake views, along with the serene wooded setting. Each space has been thoughtfully designed around furniture and functionality, ensuring that the overall scale of the cabin does not overwhelm the site or the surrounding community.
