HISTORY: At the turn of the last century, surrounding forests provided the cedar and pine, while lake and river shores offered up natural stone to build the lodge. Native workmen and Swedish craftsmen with a love for wood created the Lodge. At it's peak, the resort was large, with many cottages (sleeping as many as 60 guests) , boasting 183 acres and offering guests entertainments from fishing to flying. The hey day started in the 1920's. It was so well-appointed for its time that the big city newspapers of Milwaukee and Chicago did feature write-ups singing the praises of the Lodge and its entertainments, which were varied and many, including fishing, swimming, guided outings, archery, horses, boating, campfires, midnight cookouts and hunting. Indoors, guests were treated to a full bar, dining room and musical get-together. The structure you see today was the residence of the Fields family while they ran the resort. Our neighbor's cottages on both sides of the river made up what once was the entire lodge. Meals were taken a couple of cabins down while the front desk and bar room were located in the structure across the street. Boulder lake covers 524 acres with a maximum depth of 23â and is home to many different kinds of fish such as Musky, Northern Pike Walleye, Large and Small Mouth Bass and Panfish.
