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.

This place is just right for our group. It has everything you need for a winter stay in the northwoods. We had a flock of swans swim by the dock which was cool and the kids loved playing on the zipline!

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.
