Welcome to Wanderlust Cottage at Lazy Days, a luxury Northwoods retreat on the legendary Manitowish Chain. Nestled along the scenic Trout River between Alder Lake and Manitowish Lake, this beautifully crafted 4-bedroom, 3-bath cottage offers approximately 2,001 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space blending modern comfort, quality construction, and timeless Northwoods charm. The Manitowish Chain is one of Wisconsin’s premier recreational lake systems, featuring over 4,000 acres of interconnected water, miles of shoreline, exceptional fishing, and endless boating opportunities. Cruise to waterfront restaurants, lakeside bars, marinas, and popular gathering spots, then return home to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting. Whether your passion is boating, swimming, kayaking, snowmobiling, fishing, or simply unwinding at the lake, Wanderlust places you in the heart of the Northwoods lifestyle. Inside, spacious open-concept living areas, a beautiful fireplace, large windows, and a stunning screened porch create the perfect environment for entertaining and relaxing year-round. Warm finishes and carefully selected design elements provide a welcoming atmosphere throughout the home. The finished lower level features a comfortable theater-style media room ideal for movie nights, big games, or gathering with family and friends after a day on the water. It’s the perfect place to unwind, rain or shine. Owners enjoy approximately 200 feet of shared frontage, deeded dock slips, professionally maintained grounds, outdoor gathering spaces, a private two-car garage, and valuable overflow parking for trailers and guests. Built with an emphasis on quality craftsmanship, durable materials, and efficient design, Wanderlust offers the benefits of low-maintenance ownership low HOA's.
