Escape to Skipping Stone, your lakefront cabin retreat on the serene shores of Towanda Lake in Arbor Vitae, WI. With three bedrooms and two baths, this spacious home provides a peaceful getaway for those who value both comfort and nature. The open-concept living area is flooded with natural light from expansive lake-facing windows, giving you an unobstructed view of the sparkling water while you unwind.
The newly renovated kitchen is designed for those who love to cook and gather. It’s fully equipped with a gas range, dishwasher, beverage cooler, and a Keurig coffee maker—every detail is taken care of. Ample countertop space makes meal prep a breeze, whether you’re whipping up a casual lunch or a family feast. Dine with a view from the adjacent dining area or step outside to the deck, where the lake serves as the perfect backdrop for a morning coffee or evening cocktail.
The main-level master bedroom offers a king-sized bed, with a second bedroom featuring twin beds. On the lower level, you'll find the third bedroom with a cozy queen bed, and the walk-out basement leads directly to the patio and lake. Spend your evenings by the private firepit or grilling on the gas grill while taking in the quiet "Up North" vibe.
Towanda Lake boasts a zero-depth sandy shoreline, ideal for swimming and fishing, and this secluded property ensures minimal traffic thanks to its location on a dead-end road. Plus, your furry friend is welcome to join you, as Skipping Stone is dog-friendly (for an additional fee).
Skip the booking platforms and send us an inquiry to book directly and avoid unnecessary guest fees. Skipping Stone is your gateway to a relaxing, unforgettable stay at a lakefront cabin in Arbor Vitae, WI.
Bring along some fishing gear—the lake is known for its bass and panfish. If the group prefers being out on the water, a paddle around the lake in a kayak or canoe offers an easy, quiet way to soak up the surroundings.
If you're in the mood to explore the area, the nearby Bearskin State Trail is a must. It’s a scenic spot for hiking or biking, winding through forests and around lakes. The Raven Nature Trail is another option, just a short drive away, and offers a more rustic, wooded hike with plenty of wildlife. For something a little different, the Northwoods Zip Line in Minocqua is a quick 15-minute drive from Arbor Vitae—great for the adventurers in the group.
When it comes to dining, everyone can find something to love. Head to The Thirsty Whale for some casual lakeside dining or swing by the Minocqua Brewing Company if the group’s into craft beer and pub fare. Marty’s Place North is a classic supper club if you’re in the mood for a traditional Wisconsin fish fry. If anyone enjoys a bit of live entertainment, the Min-Aqua Bats water-ski show is a local favorite and is performed multiple times a week throughout the summer.
For those interested in local history, the Dr. Kate Museum in nearby Woodruff gives a glimpse into the life of the "Angel on Snowshoes," a doctor who became a legend in the Northwoods for her work in rural healthcare. After a day exploring, it’s always nice to head back to Skipping Stone to relax by the fire pit or grill dinner with views of the lake.
