The Space:
★ The Accommodations at The Alvig House★

A quiet, tree-lined street leads to The Alvig House, a portent of things to come. As you approach,
you’ll see a path to the spacious open backyard, with a propane barbecue to grill your freshly
caught Walleye or Northern.

The front door opens to a light-filled, airy, open-concept living room, dining room, and kitchen
with gleaming hardwood floors. Wall-to-wall windows facing the lake enhance the feeling of
openness and infuse the room with ever-shifting light as the day goes from sunrise to sunset.
As you cast your gaze to the beautiful outdoors, you might even see Bald Eagles soaring above
the lake by day, and hear the distinct sound of Loons flying in pairs to their nests.

The adjacent family room features plenty of relaxing seating and a 52-inch HD TV, and there are
games, books, and Legos for the little ones.

The kitchen is galley-style with new appliances and everything you need – dishes, glassware,
cookware, and flatware – to whip up some delicious meals.

The master bedroom, on the ground floor adjacent to the family room, has a queen-sized bed
plus a twin trundle bed that can be used for relaxing or sleeping. A seat beneath a large window
overlooks the lake. What a view! The downstairs bathroom also has plenty of natural light with a
shower and a large vanity.

Next, walk up the brightly lit stairway to a beautiful, spacious loft area. It includes a quiet
workspace, a full bed in a magical hideaway nook, a queen-sized bed, and a trundle bed. Watch
your favorite shows on a 43-inch HD TV. The loft area bathroom has a charming full bath and
shower area to wash off after a full day of playing on the lake.

Walking outside, you are greeted by a spacious green lawn with a panoramic uninterrupted view
of the lake. Relax in a lawn chair with a beverage as you breathe in the view. Walk down the
stairs to the lake shore to a 40ft dock.

There’s also a lovely landing on the rock shore with a firepit where you can roast marshmallows
during the spectacular Alvig House Green Lake sunsets.

Among the amenities offered by The Alvig House are a washer-dryer, a generous supply of
towels and bed linens, and dedicated parking for 3 vehicles, including your boat trailer.
