The Location

Lake Tomahawk
& Minocqua

The two homes sit a short drive apart in Wisconsin’s Northwoods, wrapped by the Northern Highland–American Legion State Forest. Same lakes, same pines, same supper clubs — two different paces.

The Northwoods

There’s plenty to do.
There’s also nothing wrong
with doing nothing.

A calm Northwoods lake ringed with autumn colour

On the Water

Boat. Fish. Paddle. Swim. Or find a chair and don’t do much of anything.

In the Woods

Trails, state forest, long walks, bikes and plenty of room to wander.

Downtown Minocqua from the air, the main street running between two lakes

Around Town

Coffee, supper clubs, shops, bars, local events and the places you end up coming back to.

When It Snows

Snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and a completely different version of Up North.

Snowshoe Baseball

You kind of have to see it.

Softball. Snowshoes. Sawdust. Monday nights in Lake Tomahawk — a tradition that makes perfect sense once you’re standing there.

Northwoods · Year Round

Northern Highland State Forest

Get lost for a little while.

Lakes, trails, pines and more Northwoods than you could cover in one trip. It wraps around most of this region.

Bring the boat. Or the fishing rods.

A big stretch of water close to Lake Tomahawk and an easy place to spend most of a day.

When the lakes freeze over.

Miles of winter trails and one of the best excuses to visit after the summer crowds leave.

Lake Tomahawk

A little quieter.
That’s the idea.

Lake Tomahawk is the kind of town where the lake, the woods and whatever you’re doing that night are usually enough.

About Us

My name is Judd. I buy and fix homes throughout Central and Northern Wisconsin, and I’ve always enjoyed taking a place and turning it into a home a family can enjoy for years to come.

Outside of that, I spend a lot of my time fishing, hunting, hiking, enjoying time with family + friends, and traveling whenever I can. I’ve always been drawn to places that are quiet, comfortable, and give you a chance to slow down for a few days.

That’s where Stay in Wisconsin came from.

Clean, comfortable, quiet homes where people can slow down, spend time together, and enjoy everything the area has to offer — with the little things taken care of so you can just show up and enjoy your trip.

If one of our places looks like a good fit for your trip, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
