About this property

Private Lakefront Estate on 8 Acre Peninsula

Loon Point is a private resort situated on an 8 acre peninsula. This getaway features 1,700 feet of frontage on Grand Portage Lake. Loon Point is nestled in the heart of the North Woods, yet is conveniently located only 1-1/2 miles from Mercer, WI. It has some of the best fishing in the state on the Turtle Flambeau Flowage. In addition to the Lodge, which comfortably houses up to 8 people, the resort also has a separate 2 bedroom guest house which will accommodate an additional 4. The Lodge is situated at tip of the point and has a breathtaking view of water from its huge deck and enclosed porch. You'll find the amenities more than ample... three bedrooms/ two baths and a fabulous stone fireplace. The picturesque guest house is only a stones throw from the water and a large deck. It features two bedrooms, one bath, kitchen with dining area, and knotty pine living room.


The two-stall wet boat house has a game room and screened in porch on the upper level, complete with a Brunswick Tournament pool table.

Beautiful property. Needs some TLC.

The location was amazing. The cabin needed some TLC. The oven door was broken, when we arrived the gas grill was filled with charcoal. Some general updates were needed.

Perfect location and beautiful views!

There were 10 of us staying for 4 days and everyone loved the property! We had UTV's and were able to access the trails easily right from the property and it was very close to town. Property was back down a long driveway and made it very private. I'm sure we'll be staying here again next year!!

Great place to stay

Had a great stay. Fantastic location, very private. Cabin was nice had most of the essentials. Only complaints I got from my group was there were no shower towels and the shower heads were in desperate need of replacement.

Large waterfront and so private!

Tranquil spot With included kayaks and paddle boards

Awesome swimming. Loved the fire pit, the big lawn, the kayaks paddle boards and docks. The cabin was cool and kitschy. A couple things were on the older side but overall had a great stay.

Disappointed

The location was pretty and the cabins provided plenty of room, however, the place was not kept up, was not clean, and had many things that were broken or not in working order.

Wonderful and peaceful

Fantastic stay and George was wonderful to work with. The pictures do not do the beauty of the cabin and the upper level of the boathouse justice. Quiet, peaceful, plenty of room for a big group out on the point.

Great place

It was -15ºF most of the weekend and we all snuggled up and stayed cozy in the lodge. Amazing location, close to plenty of skiing. Walking on the frozen lake was spectacular. As far as cleanliness goes, most everything was fine, but a few of the beds in the "cabin" had pretty old sheets & blankets. Some had pretty sizable holes in them... definitely in need of some new linens. Nothing crazy, just worth noting.

Good time

My family enjoyed our time together at George's cottage. The location is perfect for us parents, since we live in the area and can travel home in the evening, leaving the children and grandchildren some peace and quiet. This is our third stay and we plan to book next summer. We have stayed at other places in the Mercer area, this is the best. Bill.

Wonderful summer stay !

My family and I stayed here for a week in June.....we were a diverse group with young, old and in between. George’s place had something for everyone from fishing, bb hoop, fun water toys ( kayaks, paddle boards, paddle boat ) and great outdoor seating and fire pit. The location was superb.....close to town for run ins, yet very private. Both cabins had everything we needed and the boathouse was a spectacular plus with its pool table and comfy decor. George was a super host - not only was he available to help and answer questions but he regaled us with stories and history of the property. We will most definitely be back.
