20 tips for buying a lake home in NW Wisconsin: # 7 Wisconsin’s Pier Regulations
In the summer of 2008, new legislation concerning the placement of piers on Wisconsin waterways went into effect.

20 Tips for Buying a Lake Home in NW Wisconsin - # 4 Recreational Activities
What are your favorite recreational activities? As you are searching for the ideal lake home, think about the type of lake, as well as the surrounding area, that offers the most activities.

Very likely, you’ll be within a half hour drive from a larger town or city that will offer more shopping options. Typically, they will offer a summer … (2 comments)

20 tips for buying a lake home in NW Wisconsin - #3 How does water get into your lake?
Here in Northwestern Wisconsin, it rained a lot last year easing our long-term drought. Unfortunately, we need a couple more years of this weather to fully recharge the water table. Although most lakes are unaffected, in a few cases extremely low water can mean bargain prices on lake homes and cabins.
Hydrologists divide lakes into two main types: drainage and seepage. Drainage lakes have an inlet and outlet; they’re part of system that “drains” a watershed. They’re less affected by drought. Seepage … (0 comments)

- 03/03/11 06:01 AM
Deciding where to buy a vacation home in NW Wisconsin? Why you need to do more than draw a big circle on your map. At first glance, drawing circles seems like a perfectly logical thing to do. Get out a compass and draw a big circle that’s roughly a 2.5 hour radius. Or a 3 hour radius. Whatever distance you’re comfortable with. Then make sure you buy your vacation home somewhere within that circle.
But the thing is, freeways don’t radiate out from your house like spokes from a bicycle hub. When you’re on your way to Northwest Wisconsin, most roads … (0 comments)
