The Space:
Tucked in at the end of the road in Wisconsin's Last Wilderness, you'll find this cozy family fish camp just waiting to be filled with memories. Big Oxbow Lake is a beautiful 523-acre all-sports northern Wisconsin lake. Known for its scenic beauty and interesting structure with bays and nine islands to explore, it's a paddling paradise. What's more, Camp Koie is located at the tip of a peninsula, ensuring privacy both at the firepit area and along the lakefront, including the dock. You won't see any neighbors in these spots, making it an ideal destination for those seeking solitude and connecting with the natural world.
May through September enjoy beautiful Oxbow Lake from the large lake day dock. Begin your day by heading to the dock for an early morning sunrise. Spend your day lounging on the many provided dock chairs. As the day heats up enjoy the provided Paddle North utility dock, two kayaks, two canoes, a rowboat, a Paddle North inflatable paddleboard, and even a small sailboat. Your lake day day gets capped off with front rows seats to a Northwoods sunset.
Fishing is a year-round activity in northern Wisconsin, and the Camp comes equipped with fishing poles for both warm-weather angling and ice fishing.
Nordic skiers and snowshoers can enjoy the numerous cross-country trails nearby including the popular WinMan trails (Winchester) or ABR trails (Ironwood). Alpine skiers can head north to UP resorts such as Snowriver and Big Powderhorn - a quick 30 minute drive away.
Upon entering, you'll be greeted by an inviting ambiance that pervades the living space. Unwind and make yourself at ease on the plush furnishings, stream your favorite programs on the TV, or savor a home-cooked meal together in the homey kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with essential amenities, including a refrigerator, propane stovetop oven range, microwave, and coffee maker. Comfortable beds ensure a restful night's sleep after your day of adventures.
