Nice getaway

This house provided enough space for all of us. We were here for a short stay for a family reunion. Close to Perham which is wonderful since we needed the ER for kidney stone issues. Felt lucky to be close for the medical care needed.

Clean, Quiet, and Safe

Super comfy :) We stayed here a few days to visit extended family around Perham and felt right at home. I brought my dog along and she has a tough time with other dogs, so this was way less stressful for us than staying at a hotel.The kitchen is fully stocked and we were able to find everything we needed throughout our stay. Laura was kind, accommodating, and quick to respond. We had a lot of fun playing movie trivia on the Roku!The only thing to note is that you have to message and download an app for check-in, but getting in was a breeze after that. Also, the front steps are a little tricky in the winter, especially if you have mobility issues. We thankfully had brought a shovel to clear the leaves and snow off and for my parents to use for stability to get up and down the walk path. We would definitely stay again, thanks Laura!

Fantastic alternative to hotel. Our teens all had their own beds and tv room, bathroom and shower. Here for a family weekend wedding. Could get away and relax. Cards on the porch and nice neighborhood to go for a walk.

Interior of the property was somewhat nicer and cleaner than the exterior. A decent and dated home that worked fine for the two of us but may not have worked well for more guests. We could get only two of the four TVs to work, both the Roku TVs worked fine with streaming services. Well stocked property with towels, pots, pans, silverware. glasses, cups and most items needed. Knew the property was not on the lake but having a good view of the lake would have been nice. Would consider another visit given the right circumstances.

Cozy, quiet and relaxing setting

The photos online don't show how nice this place is. We were a family of 6 adults and 4 children and were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay. Rush lake is across the road with public access. We had a family reunion in Detroit Lakes which was an easy 30 minute drive from the house. Perham is a quaint town which has everything you need. Laura was available for any questions or concerns.
