Wetmore Cottage | Private Peaceful Retreat on Stella Laken

2 Bedroom Cottage in Wetmore

Escape to tranquility at this modern lake house nestled on 1.5 acres in Hiawatha National Forest right on Stella Lake, where fishing and lake activities await just outside. Embrace wellness with an infrared sauna, workout room, and allergen-friendly, non-toxic space. Enjoy the view of the serene lake from the living room and private yard and feel like you have the whole lake to yourself. Stay connected with Wi-Fi. Whether embracing the outdoors or seeking indoor comfort, this retreat has it all
The space
There are 2 bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a full sized bed. There is a third room that has fitness equipment, including an Assault Fitness manual treadmill, weights, a fitness box and a yoga mat. The lower level has an open concept living room, kitchen, dining room and sunroom overlooking the lake with a sauna. A sliding glass door leads out to a spacious deck. The deck stairs lead to a grassy area where native wildflowers grow and the lake shore is a few yards away. There is a small private beach area that you can wade into the water. The lake is shallow and sandy for about 50 feet beyond the shore. If northern lights are visible, this is a great viewing location because there's a clear view of the northern sky over the lake and there's no light pollution.
This house is about as remote as you can get in the UP while still being able to stay connected with high speed fiber optic internet. Guests can use the internet and work from home by connecting to the wifi and make calls and texts by enabling wifi calling on their phones. The space revolves around the view of lake to help guests disconnect and reconnect with nature so there is no TV but you can stream via Wi-Fi on your own device.
The property is very private because the lake is on the back side and Hiawatha National Forest borders another side. This is the only winter-occupied house on this section of the lake, so you will feel like you have the whole lake to yourself. In the summer, trees block the view of the neighboring house. Neighbors are very quiet so we hope guests will keep the peace as well. Across the water is another section of Hiawatha National Forest, which provides a nice view of nature and a small island.
Please note that there are some minor unfinished trim details in the living room, bathroom and utility room. It shouldn't affect the quality of your stay, but I wanted to make guests aware in case aesthetics are important to you.
Guest access
Guests will be able to access the full house, minus one small armoire closet and shelving unit in the utility room where I keep personal items because I use the house when it's not being rented. Garage access is not available. Guests are able to access Stella Lake and Hiawatha National Forest from the property.
Other things to note
4 wheel drive is required October 1 - May 31. This house is "off the beaten path." The road will be plowed year round, but it can be rough with potholes, depending on weather conditions.
The house is in a very remote location and GPS gives incorrect directions. Before you arrive, please see the written directions in the directions section.
There is no cell phone service in the area, but you will be able to use your phone like normal by connecting to the wifi and enabling wifi calling.
To offer a wellness-focused experience, this house has a fitness room with a treadmill, weights and yoga mat, a sauna, stainless steel pots, pans and cooking utensils, glass cookware, spices, olive oil, coffee and tea.
I have taken extra care to provide a hypoallergenic space by not allowing pets, using fragrance-free cleaning products, keeping the house pesticide free and providing a dehumidifier and humidifier. I can't guarantee that your specific allergies will be accommodated, but I have gone above what is typical of a VRBO hosts to improve indoor air quality.
To reduce interruptions during your stay, snow removal will only happen after an accumulation of 4 inches. A shovel is provided if you want to remove snow on walkways. For accumulations over 4 inches, snow removal will happen without advance notice. Snow removal may happen at night time during heavy snowfalls to reduce the chance of you getting snowed in.

Summary: We stayed in February hoping to get some ice fishing in. Unfortunately the weather didn't hold up for us and there was quite a bit of snow and slush on the lake. The house is very secluded on a one way road. The view from the bay window is absolutely beautiful. The house is cozy, we brought our laptop for movies since the provided internet worked great. The fishing wasn't great but we made the most of it. The host was very responsive, unfortunately if not in wifi range we didn't get much reception, which is no big deal. If you're looking for a secluded get away to unplug this is the place. Thank you Kelsey for the quick responses whenever we needed anything, I think we'd like to come back in the summer when there is less snow and easier access to the lake.
