The space
Possum lodge is the serene getaway you’ve been dreaming of. Tucked in the woods on a dead end street and a newly renovated interior, you can have the rustic charm you are seeking, but the luxuries of modern living.

This 2-bedroom cabin features new appliances, a pull-out couch, a cozy, pull-out recliner, an outdoor fire-pit, a gas-grill, and private lake access.

Spend your time out fishing/swimming on the lake, curled up with a good book and blanket inside, or roasting some marshmallows by the campfire. This charming year-round home is perfect for small group gatherings or a close to home staycation.

The master bedroom features a queen bed and twin bunk beds, along with a “pack and play” to meet any family needs. The second bedroom has a queen bed and TV. There is one shared bathroom for the space. In the living room, you will find the TV equipped with Netflix & Hulu, Wi-Fi strong enough to support the "Work from Home” lifestyle you’ve been dreaming of, and a pull-out couch.

We have two complimentary single kayaks and one double kayak for use during your stay and direct access to the lake. If you have little ones, we are just a short ten minute drive to a free, local splash pad. Upon check in, we will provide you with a guidebook sharing all of the fun local amenities this area has to offer.

Guest Access:
Guests may arrive any time after 4 PM on the day of check-in. (Earlier check-in may be available for additional fee if not previously rented- please contact host for early check-in). We have a keyless door entry and will provide you a code to enter and exit the property on the day of check-in. Standard checkout is at 10 am. One day prior to rental we will send all of the information needed to checkin.

Inventory:
We consider ourselves stocked with basic supplies: 1 roll of toilet paper per day, 1 roll of paper towel per stay, hand soap, dishwashing soap, 1 garbage bag per day, basic cooking utensils, and most importantly, bottle/wine openers! Within the cabin, you will find basic cooking supplies (salt/pepper/olive oil, etc.) which you are free to use. If you run out of supplies Westfield’s Supervalu is located at 519 S. Main St. Westfield, WI. Please bring your own towels for the stay. We also recommend that you bring your own bug spray and cosmetics for the duration of your stay, but should you forget anything, please feel free to help yourself to anything you find in the cabin.

Neighborhood description
About the Lake:
Lawrence Lake is Fed by Lawrence Creek which is a Class 1 Trout Stream in Marquette County. Fish of the Lake include: Bass, Northern Pike, Walleye, Sun fish, Blue Gills, Perch and Yellow Bullhead.

While the lake is great for fishing and recreational activities, certain recreational activities are not allowed on this lake. These include: the use of a personal water craft (jet ski), water skiing & other tow water sports, & sea planes. We would also like to remind you that there is a Slow No Wake within 200’ of the shoreline. We do have a private pier should you like to bring your own boat, kayak or canoe, but any water activities are at your own risk. In the winter, snowmobile trails are connected to the Lake and ATV Routes are nearby.
