I asked about an electrical outlet to charge my Tesla and to my surprise when I pulled up to the house there was a neatly organized extension chord hanging next to the outlet. That was so thoughtful!

Great house. Clean lake.
This is a wonderful house. The house is very large for 10 people. The lake front was so much fun to swim in and the lake super clear. The hosts were easy to communicate with.

Great UP Experience
This was the perfect place for our two families to stay and could easily fit a 3rd. Wonderful lake access, great rustic feel. Mark the maintenance guy was quick to respond when we needed trash removed. Plenty of fish in the lake and a dock to bring your own boat!

Beautiful Country Home
House was exactly what we needed. Lots of space for everyone. Kitchen had supplies needed to cook and bake. Great communication with management.we arrived in the evening , realized at bedtime there was no hot water called the property management company in the morning and they had it fixed quickly.Not a huge deal but inconvenient after traveling for 24hours. House was well stocked with linens and beds were comfortable. We travel to the area once a year and will return if available.

We'll be back
The house was wonderful. Lots of room for the 10 of us. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and new appliances. We loved the two gas fireplaces that took care of the chill in the house in the early morning. The lake is a nice size and is one of four lakes connected by channels. The kayak and canoe were well used. The area was very quiet and secluded. A short trip from town for groceries and quick meals. Lots of things to do in the area. We all decided that we will be back again.

Great place.
Very spacious, clean. Could host many people. Very secluded and hard to find at first but well worth it. Couches and beds comfortable. Accessing lake is a chore with all the steps.

We enjoyed our stay. A little far from the hill, but we made it work. The Great Room was excellent for our family to gather after a day of skiing. Kids enjoyed hanging out upstairs, away from but yet under our watchful eyes. Kitchen was very well supplied with everything we needed. Lots of memories made for the 80 year old Grandpa and Grandma right down to the 3 month old baby girl and all ages in between. Very satisfied!
