Life on a Northwoods Lake
Welcome to Northwoods Oasis, where we share the real, everyday life of living on a quiet Wisconsin lake. From deer-proof gardens to thrift store finds, simple homemaking to building a side-hustle retirement, this is our corner of the Northwoods.
Have a seat. Stay awhile.

These are the Good Old Days
Welcome to the good life — the one you’re living right now. We moved back to our small-town Wisconsin roots in 2019, and we’ve been figuring out this quieter life ever since.
We grow a garden the deer keep testing, keep a simple home on a budget, and enjoy every season on the lake (yep, even the long winters).
We’re also building side hustles that’ll eventually carry us into retirement right here on the water. Thrift store finds, vintage reselling, and working from home are all part of the plan.
We write about the wins, the mistakes, and everything in between. Because the good old days aren’t behind us. They’re happening right now.
