We had a wonderful stay. The sauna, hot tub and pool were enjoyed by all. Lake access was a little tricky for the grandparents but many of us enjoyed swimming in the lake. The view was amazing. It was so peaceful to sit on the porch and watch the water- several bald eagles and hummingbirds as well.

Our group came to LaRose Wellness Center to Refresh and Renew after the holidays. It was the perfect space to relax, be nourished and connect deeply with ourselves and each other.

Relaxing

This was exactly what we needed. The views were breath taking. The location is about 25 minutes outside of Houghton. Waking up to vies of Lake Superior every morning was a breath of fresh air. If we make it back to the Houghton area we will defitry to stay here again.

Wedding Getaway

LaRose Wellness Retreat was absolutely stunning and surpassed all of our expectations. My now husband and I came up from Wisconsin two days before the ceremony and got to enjoy relaxing in the hot tub, by the lake, and around the fire before hosting our wedding on the property. Our guests raved about the beautiful views and we couldn’t agree more. Cheryl was kind and clear with all communication. We look forward to coming back and reminiscing on the start of our forever in such a beautiful place!

Wow, this house, the view, amenities, everything is top notch including the owner Cheryl who has thought of everything! She has everything already there including cereal dispensers filled with cereal. Every yr our group of 10-12 friends go on bike trip to a different place in Michigan and we all agreed this is #1 so far (and we've been doing this for yrs). Cheryl even had a karaoke machine in the house so we sat by the pool and laughed so hard with it as we're not singers ha. Pool, hot tub, house everything is spotless. Bring mosquito spray for night. Picnic table w/canopy by pool also. You'll love this place!!

Absolutely beautiful family vacation!

My extended family stayed here for 6 days for vacation and had a blast. Host was extremely helpful leading up to the trip, and remained in communication and reachable throughout. The house is stocked with more supplies than we were expecting, and for 10 adults and 5 children we had ample space (the main limiting things being fridge space, indoor dining space (for the one rainy day) and baths, as one tub was not working at time of stay). Between the pool, hot tub, large yard (steeper hill down to the lake than we expected from the photo perspective), BEAUTIFUL personal Lake Superior wading pool, kayak-able shoreline, hikes in the area, and nearby beach+playground (just a short drive south), we were not short on things to keep both kids and adults busy. Our biggest complaint was the flies, which was a seasonal unavoidable thing! Would stay again—If you haven’t visited the bay side of the south superior shore, this is the place to check it out!

Hi! I’m Cheryl LaRose. I founded the LaRose Wellness Retreat in 2012. While the retreat began during a time of personal transition it quickly became clear that destiny had something bigger in mind. I loved this place deeply, and sharing it with others felt like a chance worth taking.
For over 12 years, the LaRose Wellness Retreat has been a place for gathering, reflection, and memory-making—rooted in relaxation, joy, and peace. It has been a true pleasure welcoming so many wonderful people here.
