Vetter ArchitectsThe owners requested a Private Resort that catered to their love for entertaining friends and family, a place where 2 people would feel just as comfortable as 42. Located on the western edge of a Wisconsin lake, the site provides a range of natural ecosystems from forest to prairie to water, allowing the building to have a more complex relationship with the lake - not merely creating large unencumbered views in that direction. The gently sloping site to the lake is atypical in many ways to most lakeside lots - as its main trajectory is not directly to the lake views - allowing for focus to be pushed in other directions such as a courtyard and into a nearby forest.
The biggest challenge was accommodating the large scale gathering spaces, while not overwhelming the natural setting with a single massive structure. Our solution was found in breaking down the scale of the project into digestible pieces and organizing them in a Camp-like collection of elements:
- Main Lodge: Providing the proper entry to the Camp and a Mess Hall
- Bunk House: A communal sleeping area and social space.
- Party Barn: An entertainment facility that opens directly on to a swimming pool & outdoor room.
- Guest Cottages: A series of smaller guest quarters.
- Private Quarters: The owners private space that directly links to the Main Lodge.
These elements are joined by a series green roof connectors, that merge with the landscape and allow the out buildings to retain their own identity. This Camp feel was further magnified through the materiality - specifically the use of Doug Fir, creating a modern Northwoods setting that is warm and inviting. The use of local limestone and poured concrete walls ground the buildings to the sloping site and serve as a cradle for the wood volumes that rest gently on them. The connections between these materials provided an opportunity to add a delicate reading to the spaces and re-enforce the camp aesthetic.
The oscillation between large communal spaces and private, intimate zones is explored on the interior and in the outdoor rooms. From the large courtyard to the private balcony - accommodating a variety of opportunities to engage the landscape was at the heart of the concept.

Lignum Custom WoodworkThis project is a piece of heaven made from plain sliced white oak with a matte greenish lacquer finish. We dressed the main bar with a fluted facade, distressed green lacquer finish, and then we attached a brass toe kick. The Back bar blend with a floor to ceiling arched wall paneling and the Wine Cellar room.

SR Design Group, Inc.The custom wine cellar was made using non-aromatic western red cedar with hidden LED lighting and a decanting shelf with puck lights. The floating shelves were installed on the natural stone tile wall for additional bottle display. The slate sign was made for the homeowners after a trip to Italy. The sign reads "HO SEMPRE PENSATO CHE BERE FACESSE MALE, COSì HO SMESSO DI PENSARE…." or "I always thought drinking was bad, so I stopped thinking…."
