About this property

Perched atop the midpoint of the glorious Chain O’Lakes in Central Wisconsin, The Perch on Round Lake is a serene, fun-filled respite from hectic life surrounded by pristine lakes, blue skies of puffy clouds and the best sunsets in Wisconsin.

Renowned for its crystal clear green-blue water, the 21 spring-fed lakes of the Chain O’ Lakes are a baptism of the spirit. With the no-wake peacefulness of McCrossen Lake on one side of the point and the boater’s dream that is Round Lake on the other, this idyllic spot affords the dream vacation for everyone.

Ideal for paddle-boarding, kayaking, or a cocktail cruise on a pontoon boat in the sunset, the lakes also are fantastic for sailing, water-skiing or even ice skating in the winter.

At our beautiful Wingspan property, you’ll find our pontoon boat at our slip at one of two boat docks, two swimming/sunning docks, a fire pit, and an easy walk down a grassy hill to the best sandy beach at the lakes.

Completely original from the 70’s with a Brady Bunch open stairway connecting its two floors, Round Lake Perch is stylishly furnished with three bedrooms, a fully appointed kitchen, dining room, washer/dryer, and sunken living room with a wood-burning fireplace, Smart HD TV with Roku and cable, wireless Internet, and two full length, lazy screen porches perfect for a great book, or a glass of wine at sunset. The Perch is the perfect hideout for a quiet escape or a stylish location for your reunion.

Feel the breeze through the screens, as you wake to your view from the nest. And learn why “In all the world, no lakes like these”.

Nice place on the Chain

The condo is elevated above Round Lake. The hike down and back up the stairs to the docks was pretty daunting for my 70 year old parents. The actual condo is very nice and well appointed, but you do have very close neighbors. Might not be ideal if you plan on being out of doors later at night.

Beautiful Property!

This is a condo unit on a large lot on a point on the Chain. During the week it was very quiet, but it was understandably much busier on the weekend. Still, swimming and kayaking from the property was always an option. We played tennis on the condo's court; bocce, football and frisbee on the lawn; and enjoyed road and mountain biking in the area. We also kayaked the adjacent Crystal River, once leaving right from the property. The unit was nice, with a lovely family room, screened porch and patio area facing the lake. The master bedroom upstairs was lovely, with a screened porch up there as well. The other two BRs were in the back. Nobody complained, though!

Fanastic Location, best beach on the chain, and a great place to stay.

The place was clean, organized, and very quiet. The view was fantastic and the water was crystal clear. The beach was a particular favorite. We brought our own boat, but spent most of our time in the large sand beach that extends out about 100 feet. Great place for families who love the water.

About the host

Hosted by Pam Tarr

Pam grew up on Round Lake and has been coming here with family for over 50 years. She reconnected with her college sweetheart, Jon, two years ago and they married last year. Jon had never been to Wisconsin and fell in love with The Chain O'Lakes and our lovely place on Round Lake

Why they chose this property

Our property is completely unique to the Chain. Situated on a gorgeous 14 acre point between Round and McCrossen lakes, Wingspan is a multi-unit oasis with a lovely beach, trails, docks, diving docks, and parking right in the center of the Chain within walking distance of The Wheelhouse, Scoopers, the Indian Crossing and Becker Marine. For a relaxing, quiet vacation, but with access to all the the water sports, lakes and night life the lakes have to offer! Perfect for an annual family reunion or a quiet getaway. Open year round, our place is stylishly decorated, with a modern kitchen and bathrooms, in a retro 70's space that is comfortable and artistic. With a gorgeous view from screen porches on both floors, it is truly idyllic - indoors and out.

What makes this property unique

We have a beautiful 20' pontoon boat for rent in our boat slip at discounted rates. Room for 14 passengers in bench seating. No need to set up an expensive rental.
