We liked the house. It was clean and, though dated, worked well for us. A number of small items we all (as 4 guys in our 60s) found annoying and below standards. First is the foam

Beautiful property! Loved the deck, yard and lake. Stunning sunsets. The home was very comfortable for our family of 14 people. Our only issue was that 2 of the bedrooms upstairs do not have a/c. Plan accordingly. Overall fantastic week!

Perfect Home Base for Winter Fun

This spacious yet cozy house was the perfect home base for our family and friends reunion trip. We had 14 people ages 6 through 45 staying there, and everyone was comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans enough to cook and feed a hungry apres ski crew. We were missing a set of sheets and a few things at the outset, and had a little trouble getting into the house initially, but the communication was very easy with the rental team, and they were very accommodating!
