Wild Rice Retreat offers something increasingly rare and vital: a place that stays with you. Rooted along the shores of Lake Superior and surrounded by boreal forest, this Northwoods sanctuary replaces the noise of daily life with serene natural beauty. Designed by renowned architect David Salmela, the modern minimalist structure reflects a Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic. Simplified, sustainable materials define the home, highlighted by an expansive cantilevered living room and large H-windows that beckon natural light and woodland views. The building includes four private sleeping rooms with ensuite baths and an open common area featuring a sleek maple kitchen, an airy living and dining space, and semi-private work areas. A fully managed rental program oversees bookings and care when owners are away. Ownership includes access to Wild Rice Retreat amenities, including saunas, trails, wellness programming, and shared gathering spaces. Come for clarity. Reach out for additional details.
