Cozy, private cabin on lake with pontoon and 38 acres

Fish, hike, bike, swim, canoe, eat S'mores and more at The Wascottage. Enjoy all the amenities and complete privacy at this hand hewn log cabin on 38 acres of forested land with 800 feet of lakeshore on pristine Spider Lake in Wascott, Wisconsin. There is a trail system within the property for easy access to hiking and biking. The wildlife on the property is amazing. You will see deer, turkeys, loons, geese, herons, eagles, trumpeter swans, ducks and the occassional badger. For ATV and snowmobile enthusiasts, Trail 41 is next to the property and connects to hundreds of miles of groomed trails. For those who love to fish, Spider Lake is a 100 acre private lake with very few anglers. Three pound bass and 6 pound northerns are not uncommon and the crappies are plentiful. A 20 foot pontoon with a 25 hp motor is provided as well as a kayak and paddleboat. Swimmers in the group will enjoy the shallow, easy access to the sandy-bottomed lake. As dinner approaches, you can either plan to go to a nearby restaurant or grill up some grub on the Weber and dine on the patio overlooking the lake. After dinner, head to the fire pit, build a fire and take in the shooting star show. Welcome to the Wascottage!

Great fall stay with norther lights
We had an amazing stay. Had a great view of the northern lights one night. The recent improvements on the cabin made it much more comfortable and safe for our family. We really appreciate it. Can’t wait for our next trip.

A Surprising Gem
The hosts were amazing. Attentive but not intrusive. This was the most private place we have ever stayed at. The view from the cabin was expansive and beautiful. Having access to the watercrafts was great. The pontoon boat was perfect for fishing, and the Northern, Bass, and Bluegills were biting. The `gills` acted like they hadn't eaten all summer. The property was exceptionally well maintained, inside and out. And the wildlife...!!

God's Country!
This place is amazing! It literally has everything you need minus your own clothing! I wanted a place to take my family for relaxation, fishing and family time. Without a boat, it's hard to do the one thing I love to do, fish! The pontoon provided with the cabin is perfect for a family, especially with little ones. The lake is quiet without a lot of people buzzing around on jet skis or motor boats. I was able to teach my grandkids (2yr & 5yr) how to fish. Plenty of pan fish for them to catch. Caught a couple of smaller pike and searched for the bigger guys, but no luck there. The wildlife is amazing and with the cabin located off the beaten path, you get a lot of it. I've already asked to book again for next year!

restful getaway
beautifully maintained and appointed property. Private and serene. We had a great time. Walk to the lake and the boats, 30 acres with paths right outside the door. We really didn't have to travel anywhere to hike, fish, boat and bird watch. A relaxing vacation.

This is our 2nd stay at this cabin, and just like the 1st time, it was a wonderful experience. There is so much to do, not just within the cabin, from games to t.v, but on and off the property as well, i.e. boating, water activities, exploring the woods, local eat. My family looks forward to coming back!

Dream Cabin
Very secluded and private. The cabin is fully supplied, with multiple sleeping areas. Loved the deck. With the cabin came the use of a pontoon, kayak, canoe and paddle boat. Abundant wildlife. I taught my grandson to fish! And the loons calling on the lake were mesmerizing.

Place was cleaner/nicer than expected (some cabins feel quite old). Nice views over the lake and use of the boat was a cool bonus. Saw a bear the first night!

The cabin had just what we needed and very sell stocked with kitchen supplies and games and movies. Towels and soaps. Cabin was set up very well with good view of the lake. They were helpful to find the cabin and walked us through the arrival.

Family getaway
We had a wonderful stay at the cabin! This is our 3rd time here and it’s still as great as ever! Views are amazing, we loved being able to use the pontoon, paddle boat, and kayak, and we even saw some wildlife. We love the privacy this property has to offer and being able to walk out the door to hiking trails is a plus. The cabin itself had everything we needed for a long weekend and everything was comfortable. The only thing to note, the upstairs bed is really hard. We will definitely be back!

Late September Anniversary Stay
My wife and I stayed at the Wacottage for 5 nights. We arrived at about 3:00pm on a Thursday and left at 8:00am the following Tuesday. Upon arriving at the cottage we were greeted by 6-8 turkeys on the long secluded driveway. Those same turkeys along with 3-4 deer became a daily sight, usually multiple times per day! The cabin was perfectly cleaned when entering and had anything we could have asked for! We had some contact with Jared and Kari during our stay and that was easy and helpful as they were fantastic hosts! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, other than the rain that came for 3.5 days. We teased ourselves that we brought an end to the summer long drought and left with almost a flood situation for the Wascott area. Our stay was awesome and we are thinking of doing it again next summer or fall. We highly recommend a stay at Jared and Kari's Wascottage!

Peaceful getaway
This place is a wonderful getaway to recharge. This is our 2nd visit and we are already looking when we can come back. The cozy, clean cabin is perfectly set on a beautiful private property with trails and nestled in the corner of peaceful Spider lake. The owners are so welcoming and have thought of many special touches ( super soft towels and bedding, toiletries and welcoming cold Wisconsin beer in the fridge). We enjoyed the pontoon, pedal boat, fire pit and of course a few friendly😉 rounds of foosball. Thank you so much Dan and Suzy for sharing this gem. Until we visit again. Cheers!

We really enjoyed our stay. Very clean remote cabin with wildlife all around. Great hiking trails and scenic beauty. Awesome pontoon fishing boat was a real plus. Great fishing lake. We caught a number of 16" largmouth bass and tons of crappy bluegill and huge sunfish! Quiet peacefull area. Wonderfully hosts. Highly recommend a getaway here.
