As a result, it offers a spectacular views of Spirit Lake while respecting the scale of the new boathouse below. The exterior of this house is really prominent with glass, wood, and stone seamlessly woven together from inside to out, as they reference the primary building materials of the Northwoods. Besides, a custom wood door and window systems create a strong architectural connection to the nature.

In addition to this, the interior of this 3-bedroom house is a modern nod to Northwoods camp. Three identical guest suites outfitted with the modern amenities of a boutique hotel. Each has a built-in desk and wardrobe, a fully-appointed bath, a cozy seating area, and custom-made beds and nightstands. A private lakeside walk-out completes each guest suite. Moreover, the arrangement of each room shows the sophisticated design. It is a really wonderful combination of living spaces with living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom Without a doubt, the house offers the best experience for the those who reside inside.

Camp Spirit Lake, a Guest lodge by Amy Carman Design, Vetter Architects — The main level includes two wings or pavilions consisting of a living hall and three uniform guest suites. The living hall and guest suites offset and connected by a gallery corridor, providing a 125-foot sightline that frames nature on either end. Bessides, a series of first and second-story pavilions designed to be intimate for small gatherings and functional for large-scale reunions and social events.

Besides, rough cut fieldstone set in thick, hand-troweled mortar stretches across the exterior’s south façade and connects with the interior two story central fireplace.

Moreover, two full-length automated bowling lanes make for easy family tournaments.

Also, handprinted cement tiles in the half bath are patterned after Native American kilim rugs.

Text by the Architects: Camp Spirit Lake is a modern guest lodge located within this Chicago family’s multi-acre compound in Wisconsin’s scenic Northwoods. Surrounded by a forest of oaks and white pines, the home is perched on a bluff overlooking a pristine lake the family has been visiting for generations. It is part of a larger generational family retreat consisting of a main house, an artist studio, and two boathouses. Rooted into the hilltop, the new guest lodge captures views of Spirit Lake, while respecting the scale of the new boathouse below.
