If you’re dreaming of a home in the heart of Wisconsin’s Northwoods, The Preserve is the perfect place!. With stunning natural surroundings, access to world-class trails, and a community designed for outdoor enthusiasts and serenity, choosing your ideal lot here is an exciting process! But with so many beautiful spots to pick from, where do you even begin?
Here’s a personal guide to help you navigate your options and find the best lot for your lifestyle.
1. Think About Your Timeline (Phase 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5)
The roads and trails in The Preserve are being developed in phases, and knowing the difference between the timing of the phases will help you decide what works best for you.
-
- Phase 1: Roads are already under construction, meaning these lots will be ready to build on sooner. If you’re eager to get started on your dream home or getaway cabin, choosing from Phase 1 might be your best bet.
- Phase 2: These lots are coming next, so if you’re not in a rush and prefer to wait for a spot in a later stage of development, this could be your ideal option.
- Phases 3, 4 & 5- will begin in August, October and December, respectively.
2. Prioritize Proximity to Your Favorite Outdoor Activities
One of the biggest perks of living at The Preserve is direct access to some of the best outdoor recreation in the Midwest.
- Love Mountain Biking? The Preserve is just a stone’s throw from the CAMBA Mountain Bike Trails, so if shredding singletrack is your passion, you might want a lot that offers easy access to these world-renowned trails.
- Avid Skier? The American Birkebeiner Ski Trail is also nearby, making winter training a breeze for cross-country skiing enthusiasts. Imagine gliding out your front door and hitting the trails in minutes!
- Looking for Community & Relaxation? If you love the idea of gathering with neighbors, Picnic Point—where the future community center will be located—might be an important landmark to consider. Choosing a lot close by will put you near future social events and communal outdoor spaces.
- Want to Be Near the Water? Some lots are closer to Round Lake, providing closer access to drive to the boat landing on Linden Rd.
- Walkability to Local Taverns & Dining: Certain lots are within a short distance to The Tavern at White Stag and Twin Lakes Tap, making it easy to enjoy a great meal or a drink with friends without needing to drive.
3. Consider Your Preferred Setting
Do you envision a home tucked in the woods for ultimate privacy, or would you rather have open views and easy access to community spaces? The Preserve offers a variety of landscapes:
- Wooded Lots: All of our lots are wooded – perfect for those who love privacy and want to be surrounded by deciduous trees or towering pines– or a mix of both!
- Rugged or sloped lots– Each lot at The Preserve is 5 acres and has it’s own personality! Many of which have beautiful elevation.
- Flatter Lots: Not as many lots here are flat, but some are.
- Lots with Trail Access: While all lots will have access to a trail connector, choosing one closer to certain areas could make daily adventures even less effort.
4. Picture Your Future Home
Different lots offer different building possibilities. Think about how your dream home or cabin will fit into the landscape. Do you need space for a large yard? Are you planning for a walk-out basement? Looking for a lot with an easy driveway entrance? These little details can make a big difference when choosing the perfect spot.
5. Visit and Walk the Land
There’s no substitute for seeing the land in person. Take a walk through the available lots, stand in the middle, and imagine waking up there every day. Pay attention to the sunlight, the sounds of the forest, and how the land makes you feel. Sometimes, you just know when you’ve found the right spot!
