About the host
Hosted by Nola Wilkens

We are Wisconsin natives (and Packer fans) and love living in Chetek for half the year and Fort Myers the winter months! My husband, Cal and I enjoy hanging out with our kids, friends and grandchildren whether we are boating, golfing, or being physically active. My special love is growing and tending to my flower and veggie garden. If you come in the right season, you may even end up with some of my veggies! Both Cal and I love meeting and helping people enjoy our quaint, sweet setting. We are so excited to welcome you all as special quests of ours!
Why they chose this property
We are lucky enough to have an 1/2 acre lot nestled in a dead end street on beautiful Lake Chetek. In fact, the street actually ends at our house. On the acreage, Summar Paradise Cottage sits about 100’ from the main house, offering plenty of privacy and space with outdoor chairs, a patio table and a fire pit and grill. There are only a few houses in this neighborhood and everyone is friendly but quiet. You won’t hear any loud parties in this area! There are no other rentals in the neighborhood.
Our downtown is vibrant and has many places to explore! Just 5 minutes away via walking, you’ll run into a unique grocery store, where it sells everything from fishing lures to wine. You’ll find the history center, antique, clothing shops and handmade art as you explore the area. A new bakery just opened and quickly established itself as a favorite to have with your Caribou coffee. There are several yummy ice cream places and candy galore! Like wine? Stop in the new wine bar, complete with its own charcuterie menu. Restaurants and fun bars are also included in this quaint, cute downtown. There are a myriad of events going on in downtown Chetek. You will love it here- a place where you’ll feel comfortable and safe anytime of the day or night!

What makes this property unique
Summer Paradise Cottage sits in a pristine and beautiful setting. If you like a comfortable, relaxed stay near the waterfront, this cottage is for you. It has just enough vintage to make you feel like you stepped back in time, but still has everything you a would expect in a modern place. This is the only cottage we rent and will treat you as a treasured guest for your stay. If you enjoy fishing, there are several “hot spots” on Lake Chetek or the other 5 lakes. Just walk a minute away, and you’re off to enjoy the day on your boat. Perfect for families, you will have no worries about traffic or safety in the neighborhood. The yard is large and there is plenty of room for play. Out of town is an old-fashioned pioneer village within just a few miles away. The beach is just a few minutes away by car. If you’re a biker or runner, there are plenty of low-traffic streets overlooking a lake to enjoy. Girl’s trip? Shopping is just a few blocks away or if you want more, there’s always Rice Lake which is only 25 minute drive. There are also several fun eateries in and close to Chetek. Guys and gals alike will appreciate being so close to several golf courses in the area. Summer Paradise Cottage is situated in the perfect spot- far enough from people when you want peace and quiet and yet close to the action if that suits you!
