Lakefront Winter Retreat — Fireplaces, Ice Fishing & Cozy Views | Cottage in Shawano
3 Bedroom Cottage in Shawano
Welcome to fun and relaxation at the Sunset Escape! Perfect for family and friends all year round.
FALL:
Enjoy the stunning fall leaves changing while warming up to a campfire, or going on ATV adventures. Packer fans - we're just a 30-minute drive from Lambeau Field. The dock cannot be guaranteed between October 13 to late spring.
WINTER:
Live in a winter wonderland with ice fishing, snowmobiling, crafting/quilting, and loving the view of freshly fallen snow. Multiple Indoor electric fireplaces will keep you cozy on cold nights. Shawano Lake is known for its ice fishing. Fish on the lake include Musky, Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Walleye, and Sturgeon. Christmas lovers - the halls are decked out for your holiday!
SPRING:
Embrace the emergence of nature by listening/watching the birds, kayaking, paddle boarding, and enjoying bonfires.
SUMMER:
This vacation home is ideal for bringing your family to enjoy fishing, swimming, playing games, watching sunsets, and making memories. The cottage comes with a dock to tie your boat, and is close by to a boat launch. No boat? No problem! You can rent a boat at American Marine. The land is flat from the house to the water. The water is quite shallow towards the end of the dock, perfect for children to swim in or to sit in with a chair with a cold beverage. We also have two adult kayaks, two kids kayaks (up to 130lbs), a water mat, and two paddleboards for your use. Lawn games are available for shoreside fun! New whole-house air conditioning was installed in the fall of 2024. Individual window AC units (for 2 or 3 bedrooms) are set up on the upper floor in late spring until the end of summer.
YEAR-ROUND:
Enjoy board games/books for all age groups, as well as a dartboard. Located on the south side of Shawano Lake, several grocery stores, restaurants, breweries, casinos, golf courses, ATV/snowmobile trails, bowling, and shopping areas are just a short few minutes away. Indoor electric fireplaces and an outdoor fire pit will keep you cozy any day of the week.
