Great location and had everything you may need.

We have kids ranging from 4-22 and they were never bored, we appreciated the canoes and games. The rental office called and checked in on us and I thought that was wonderful. The space was clean and the little private beach area is perfect for the little ones.

Great lake house

All of our vacation was smooth from booking to receiving check-in info ahead, to accessing the house, to all the activities on vacation. Kitchen is well stocked. The house was very clean and the decorating was so pretty. The bathrooms are updated. We loved getting to use the two kayaks and paddle board, thanks so much. The deck table has an umbrella and the chairs on the lawn we enjoyed using. We ate all our meals outside at the table on the patio. Management was accessible and kind. Great time, thanks!!
Three sliding glass doors and the two open windows at kitchen sink let breeze come through.
Beautiful sunsets and moon rises viewed from the deck and dock!
Our dogs sun bathing.
Just beautiful sun sets from the dock!

Wonderful family lake house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a great house for our family of four with 2 young children. The house is really well stocked with kitchen utensils, dishes, washer and dryer and beach towels. The house had a ton of outdoor toys including sand toys, cornhole, life jackets and paddleboard and kayaks. The paddles and lifejackets were neatly organized in the shed on the side of the house. Great location to do a lot of activities around but we also just enjoyed hanging in the backyard by the lake and firepit.

Early summer up north getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was as expected. Clean, very well stocked with anything you may need. The refrigerator did struggle to stay cool. We discovered there is not enough ventilation behind it to keep the air flow circulating. The only two things I would recommend is getting air conditioning in the main living room space, it was incredibly warm up there on the super hot day we were there. And maybe adjust check in and check out. Most places we rent check out is 11 or 12 and check in is 3. We had issues finding a few things for the outside, but we received very prompt responses when we reached out. Would definitely rent again.

Leonard rental 8/23/24 - 8/29/24

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pretty good.The owner needs to use 2-ply toilet paper, as well as QUALITY paper towels. To TRY and cut costs on an inexpensive item like paper products was not only ridiculous, but annoying!Unless that changes I seriously would never recommend the property.There were no bicycles as promised, and nowhere to rent in Beulah (store closed for season). Their sister store in Frankfort didn’t have bicycles available, and the bicycle shop in Elberta - that’s been there forever - has permanently closed.
