3235 E Hwy J , Tigerton, WI 54486(Waupaca County)

Log home compound featured on Extreme Homes with 3 structures is off the grid and one with nature. The destination, known as Deer Shelter, is on 30 remote acres about an hour from Green Bay or Oshkosh, WI in Waupaca County Wisconsin. You will not only get in touch with nature here, but you share nature in every aspect from the glass tower, enjoying abundant flora & fauna, including black bear sightings and chickadees eating from your outstretched hand. This property is certainly worthy of being featured on Extreme Homes, with a boulder room created from discarded glacial rock, counter-weighted trap door entrance, curved log stairs, glass prow with hot tub, watch tower/eagle's nest, and architectural inspiration from former Wisconsinite, Frank Lloyd Wright. The builders started with a log cabin home and then created the world's tallest birdfeeder structure with interesting sleeping nooks, wood stoves, stone fireplaces and windows allowing nature to be the decor. All of the innovative rooflines, stairways, points of inspiration, and tree-top vantage points were resourcefully handcrafted, often times with salvaged materials. The countless windows provide beautiful views of the surrounding woods, including the spring-fed pond down the hill from the buildings. The property is heated by fireplace or woodburning stoves and the toilets are of outhouse variety. Conventional plumbing could be added- now your choices are 2 wells, one with electric powered pump (for hot tub) and hand-pumped well water from the kitchen sink for cooking. You can disconnect from the world in this setting that evolves through seasonal changes and new adventures along the paths or looking out from the unusual angles/heights of the custom-built dream retreat. The garage provides lots of space to house your toys. The surrounding area offers more opportunity to enjoy nature- within a mile of the Little Wolf river, with trout fishing & whitewater canoeing.
