Our stay at The Norseman was nothing short of incredible. This cabin is full, true luxury—every detail is high-end, thoughtful, and clearly chosen with pride in ownership. The style is the perfect blend of modern cabin and cozy comfort: clean lines, gorgeous furnishings, and a warmth that instantly makes you feel at home.
The fireplace completely transforms the space into a warm, inviting retreat, and the view of the lake is absolutely breathtaking. The private lot is serene and peaceful—exactly what we needed. Whether you want to stay busy or do absolutely nothing, this cabin has everything: plenty of indoor and outdoor activities, or the perfect backdrop to simply relax.
This was the first time in a long time my husband and I truly slowed down, unplugged, and relaxed. We never thought we’d be “cabin people,” but after this stay? We’re already counting down the days until we can come back.
Amazing hosts, a tranquil setting, and a fully luxurious experience—The Norseman is a 5-star getaway through and through. Highly recommend!
This review is exactly what WE needed, Katie. You and Jesse are 5-star guests, through and through. We can't wait to host you again soon—as well as any friends and family you think would love joining the "cabin people" ranks!
Everyone thinks of mountains when we use the word majestic. I can’t think of a better word to describe Norseman Point. You are honestly awe-struck pulling into the driveway and see the cabin come into sight for the first time. It truly is remarkable from the thoughtful landscaping, to the detail inside the cabin. The local materials used and the reclaimed materials from the old cabin, the details on the glass, the grand room, the exceptional rug, the views overlooking the lake! The sauna!
This place has a plethora of outdoor activities to do. Kayaking, swimming, fishing, mountain biking, a cute town to shop and explore.
My family has such fond memories here. The joy this place brings is indescribable. It isn’t just a place to visit. It’s an experience. Majestic.
A elevated Northwoods experience is exactly what we are aiming for, Eric. Thank you for sharing your approval in such vivid detail. It'll all be here, just as you remembered, when you visit next.
This beautiful home and property are a must if you are looking to stay in the north woods! They have thought of all details to make your stay so comfortable. The location is fantastic with access to so much to do and see. The house is immensely stocked with anything you could want in the kitchen, the game room is a fun hangout spot, all the lake toys are a bonus as well. The property is huge with lots of fun yard games to play, the sauna is a little bonus too on those chilly mornings or evening! This retreat is a MUST stay!!

Thank you for the kind words and amazing pics, Laurie! We can't wait to host you again soon. (The winters are equally beautiful.)
We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at this stunning cabin in norther Wisconsin. The space itself is beautifully designed - warm, welcoming, and full of thoughtful touches. From the cozy fireplace to the peaceful wooded surroundings, it felt like something out of a winter postcard.
The Location couldn't be better, just minutes from WinMan Trails, where we spend our days cross country skiing and fat tire biking through incredible snow-covered forests. Afterward, we came back and relaxed in the private sauna, which was the perfect way to unwind and warm up.
Another wonderful experience was ice skating through the woods at The Glide in Boulder Junction. Between the outdoor adventures and the peaceful comfort of the cabin, it was the perfect balance of activity and relaxation.
The cabin was spotless, well-stocked, and well cared for. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds super comfortable, and the hosts were fantastic - responsive, friendly, and full of great local tips.
Whether you're coming here for outdoor adventures, a cozy couples retreat, or just some quiet time in nature, Norseman Point offers the perfect setting. We left feeling refreshed and can't wait to come back. This place is truly something special.

Thanks for the amazing description of your stay, Erling. We are so happy to hear that you took full advantage of Norseman Point and the surrounded area. It truly is a year-round wonderland.
We had a wonderful weekend and cant thank you enough! Your talent as designers was evident both inside and outside. We were also impressed with how you incorporated some of the old pieces from the “cottage” into this new, sleek and modern design. You thought of every detail! We would surely look forward to visiting again.
Thank you for the kind words, Bonnie. We worked hard to bridge legacy with modern living. Glad to hear we succeeded. You're welcome anytime!
