Growing up in Milwaukee, I was 1 of 13 children. My family had their vacation home on Virgin Lake, part of the Three Lakes Chain of Lakes in Northeastern Wisconsin. We were all involved in the search for our family lake home. Many great memories were made of summers spent swimming, fishing and boating in Wisconsin’s Great Northwood’s, and winters of sledding, deer hunting and roughing it at the family cabin were made.
Moving with my family in my teen years to the rural countryside of Sheboygan County, I was again a part of the search and move to a different life style. We had horses, dogs, and raised much of our own food. Yes we had a cow to milk, and chickens for eggs! And of course a big garden. I worked at a nearby apple orchard in the fall, and spent summers living and working on Elkhart Lake. For me the lure of the big city was soon forgotten and was replaced by a love of the county.
Locating to the Hayward Area in 1976 with my husband Alan we made our 1st real estate purchase buying 20 acres and building our first home from the ground up. We spent 2 years searching out the real estate market in and around Sawyer County and finally settled on Hayward. Realizing the benefits of land ownership we soon after bought a 40, and not long after that we bought our first lakeshore on Nelson Lake.
I became involved in the Real Estate Industry in 1979. Working for another brokerage for a few years I branched out with 2 other associates to open our own firm “Tri R Realty Associates, Inc.” in 1983. Eventually becoming the sole owner/broker. The goal was to create a small brokerage where individual associates become a part of the firm and where they would work together with more of a team approach, and a more “personalized real estate experience.” “A home town company with home town strength.”
Alan & I continued with our investment strategy of land purchase and that same year bought a resort on Round Lake. Using Alan’s skills as an accomplished home builder, Timber Trail Lodge has been transformed through our 25 years of ownership into a 1st class family vacation destination. We offer ultra modern lodging in single-family homes and condominium style units on one of Hayward’s premiere area lakes.
A long awaited dream of having a family became a reality when we adopted our infant son Eric in 2002. Together we enjoy all the Hayward area has to offer and have even branched out into land ownership into Southeastern Iowa. There we built our “cabin” in an area known for record book whitetails.
Helping people accomplish their dreams & goals have been very rewarding. Seeing them buy a piece of raw land as we did, and taking it to the next level is a great feeling. With my husbands skills as a builder I was able to see and be a part of many aspects of land development and use. It has and will continue to be a lot of work, but working for yourself is the most rewarding occupation I think you can have. We have created a legacy to pass on to our son and look forward to helping others do the same. Be it a home, lakeshore, recreation land, investment or business venture I have the knowledge and expertise to work with all.
