The property was great! Beautiful setting on Balsam lake with lots of room to spread out. The kitchen/dining area was a highlight of the house and a lot of time was spent gathered there. It was great to be able to walk to Balsam lodge for a boat rental. The hosts were very responsive and kind to work with during the stay! Would definitely recommend !

Excellent in all aspects!

I have all great things to say! Communication was great, check-in was easy, the listing was 100% accurate, the view was amazing, the location was perfect, the home was comfortable and welcoming. We walked to Balsam Lake Bar & Grill for great food and music the first night. We drove just a short distance to hiking trails and wineries. We spent time on the lake. We loved this girls trip! Thank you for this great vacation location!

We had 2 families with adult children stay here. We had plenty of room. We had a great time and only wish it hadn’t rained as much. We did get one day to enjoy playing pickleball outside on the driveway and then going on the lake for a boat ride. Id say our only complaint would be that 2 pull out couch beds were not comfortable. And the “library desk area” could be better utilized as another room or a twin daybed (trundle bed). Thanks so much! We hope to visit again!
Beautiful morning for coffee on the deck.
Took a short walk down the road and found some fun outdoor sculptures.
Boat ride around the lake.
