Northwoods Oasis

A Small-Home Country Lifestyle


Are you being held prisoner by a giant McMansion?

Has your American Dream turned into a nightmare? Are you trapped in a cycle of home maintenance, house chores and mortgage bills? There’s a better way.

In 2018, we ditched the McMansion mindset and took our life back through small home, country living. Follow along as we share how.

You, too, can build and live a small home, rural lifestyle – now!

2023 Birchwood Bluegill Festival: July 21-23

Relax. You’re on lake time.

Imagine a place where the air is fresh, the water is clear, and the locals are friendly.

That place is the beautiful lake country of northern Wisconsin – a true Northwoods Oasis.

We’re building a small home, rural lifestyle in this small-town lake community. And we’re sharing it with you here.

So grab a cold one, settle in and stay for awhile. We’d love your company.
