Luci's Lilly Pad

2 sites · Lodging3 acres · Gillett, WI
Fully furnished 21 foot camper tucked into mostly wooded 2.6 acres with water frontage on private Warrington Lake just north of Shawano Lake. Bonfires... fishing...boating... Snowmobile and ATV trails. We have electric and heat for the camper. Ice fishing for crappies is a lot of fun, I can pretty much guarantee bites. Summer fishing for bluegills and largemouth bass is a blast. I love watching a bonfire and listening to the bullfrogs and wood ducks at dusk. I personally am not much for ATV or snowmobile trail riding due to my fishing addiction but the trails are right there and you can hop on your machine and go right from the camper. Canoe and four person paddle boat available in the summer. Camper has an upper and lower queen bed along with the side benches that fold down which makes two more large sleeping areas. There is a sand point well with a pitcher pump that also works in the winter for non-potable water. Camper plumbing works in the summer and doodie/comode bags available for the winter months. I am looking forward to meeting you!

Koeller Century Farm

3 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Shawano, WI
The farm has been in the family for four generations. We don't have any livestock anymore and rent the fields to the neighbors but the home, outbuildings and five acres are well-loved and used as our home base and also for rustic weddings, graduation parties, reunions and barn dances. In 1974, the farm was used as the location for the TV movie "Things in Their Season" starring Patricia O'Neal. We put up one of the first barn quilts in the county and are on the route of the Bike the Barn Quilts bike ride (held last Saturday in September.) Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent or roll your RV up to a beautiful farmstead (we no longer have animals, crops only).  We are a rustic wedding / event venue located mid-way on the Mountain Bay Trail, Wisconsin's longest rail-trail which runs about 90 miles from Weston to Green Bay.   Fire pit available.  Views of farmland all around.  Quiet and peaceful but not secluded.   (See pictures on Facebook Country Events at the Koeller Century Farm.) You can move tent into the machine shed (wood chip floor) during severe weather.  There are electrical outlets to use to re-charge devices.
