About this home
ULTRA RARE opportunity to own a piece of Trout Lake history with this 1940s historic lodge on shores of idyllic Wegwas Lake. Established in the 1930s, the Wegwas Lake Club now exists as a private and gated community right in the heart of the Eastern UP and is comprised of only 13 discreet and tastefully built homes. Once aptly called 'Beaver Lodge', and built by philanthropist, Phil DeGraff, this enchanting, rustic lodge is everything one could wish for in a private retreat: peace, serenity with a touch of old-world class. The expansive structure is made entirely of (full) logs & slate/stone, with intricate detailing to be found around every corner, including Niagara Escarpment fossil stone features in the unique slate/stone fireplaces, walls, and the winding stone staircase and stunning woodwork throughout.
Depending on which entrance you use, downstairs you will find a charming yellow kitchen area with a spacious storeroom (with walk-in refrigerator), a food prep station, and just down the hall, an expansive dining room and two large living areas, each offering exceptional views of the lake from the numerous picture windows. Up from those gathering areas there is a small private library, a hidden loft cubby space overlooking the intimate 'music' room that is loaded with charm, and yet another huge stone fireplace!
Upstairs can be accessed from three separate staircase locations and once upstairs you will find twelve separate color-coded sleeping areas and a communal living room. Nine of these are private rooms with doors and three are open. Three rooms were specifically built for the Lodge's staff and accessed via the kitchen staircase, two areas for Phil DeGraff himself accessed via the music room, and five upscale 'guest rooms' four of which face the lake and accessed from the dining area via a winding stone staircase. All but one guest room (the 'red' room) have ensuite half or full bathrooms, and there are two shared full bathrooms for the remaining areas.
The detached 1248 sq ft garage at the front of the property was built in the same style as the lodge and crafted with same care as the lodge but with all modern constructs. It features two separate doors, a two-car door at the front, and a single car door at the back. Upstairs is a large loft currently used for storage but could easily be converted into further living space. Lakeside offers a quarry stone patio with a tall stone fireplace for outdoor cooking and entertainment and all set on appx 1.5 partially landscaped acres, directly on the lake. To maintain its conservation goals, the Wegwas association no longer allows homes to be built directly on the lake, requiring instead a specific setback. This is truly a special property and a once in a lifetime opportunity - hurry before it is too late!
