Originally built in 1908, this rustic red pine log home played a significant role as one of Walloon Lake's earliest fishing lodges. The Lodge is a featured landmark on historic section maps that continue to be reproduced today. It is one the last remaining authentic landmarks from early Walloon and the time of Hemingway.


The Lodge has hosted and entertained vacationing families for more than 100 years.
