About this property

Enjoy a getaway at Wheeler Lake Family Retreat

Beautiful spacious ranch home with walkout basement on crystal clear Wheeler Lake. Property offers 2 large decks with spectacular views and 3 piers for swimming, fishing or docking your boat. 5 bedrooms and 2 baths with plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing. In addition to the 5 BR, there is a double air mattress available for use if needed. Fully stocked kitchen with many small appliances. Internet service is included, as well as 'YouTube TV' and 'Disney +'.

Large fire pit area overlooking the lake. 3 kayaks, stand-up paddle board, pedal boat and various water toys (skis, kneeboards, wakeboards, tube, etc) are included.
Wheeler Lake is a 290 acre, 35' deep lake that is Full Rec during the hours of 11:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m., with no-wake before and after that. No-wake time is great for kayaking, swimming and fishing. Good fishing for bass, panfish and northern with the occasional walleye or crappie.

Lakewood is a quaint Northwoods town with convenient retail options for grocery, hardware, bait shop, rental for water sports and a 3-story candy store. The area has great supper clubs, sports bars, breakfast places and pizza places. There is also an 18 hole golf course 3 minutes from the property.

Can access ATV and snowmobile trails from the property! We know that mother nature is fickle so make your snowmobile reservation with confidence - if the trails are forecast to be closed you may cancel your reservation up to 48 hours prior. Sufficient parking space for several trailers.
Re-opened in winter of 2020 is Paul Bunyan Ski Hill- great for a quick few hours of hitting the slopes or for kids learning to ski.

Summer rental period is for full weeks only from Saturday to Saturday.
3 night minimum for other seasons.
Check in at 4:00 p.m. and check out at 10:00 a.m.

Anniversary Celebration with Family

Wheeler Lake is fantastic, big enough to enjoy all sorts of water activities with a high level of comfort. This location was in a quieter little cove area yet conveniently close to everything.

Family Fun

Jeff is an outstanding host. He was quick to reply to all of our messages. This property provided fun and comfort for the varied ages in our family. We enjoyed fishing, pontoon rides and swimming on the lake. The cabin had all the comforts of home and plenty of room for our group! We hope to be back next year!

Family Vacation

This house provided us the perfect family getaway. There was enough room to fit a group of 13 people comfortably. We enjoyed ours days on the lake (tubing, kayaking, swimming, playing on the lily pad) and our nights by the fire. This house allowed our family to make countless memories!

Great Fall Getaway

This property is fantastic. Very clean. Extremely well stocked kitchen, with every utensil you could possibly ever need. The lake is extremely clean, and you can watch the fish from the end of the pier. We didn't have any luck fishing, but that can be expected in September. The owner responded to our (sometimes silly) questions almost immediately. Would highly recommend this property, and looking forward to hopefully returning some day.
