Extremely Disappointing and Unsafe Experience – Do Not Recommend
Our stay at this property was incredibly disappointing. Upon arrival, we discovered the heater was broken, leaving the house cold. Several light bulbs were out in the living room, and after a workman came to fix the heater, they left the ceiling vent filthy.While cooking, the house filled with smoke because the kitchen vent was blocked with insulation, setting off the fire alarms. The fire department arrived and informed us the vent was out of compliance with safety regulations. They attempted to call the emergency number listed in the home handbook, but no one answered.Additional issues included:A broken icemakerSlippery shower with no safety matA towel rack that fell off the wallThe fireplace stopped workingWhen we reached out to the owner, he responded with disdain and no accountability. He brought bags of ice, fixed a few things, and left. Workers were at the house for two full days, making it difficult to relax. We asked for compensation, but he refused and never apologized. His behavior felt intimidating, and he stared us down when we expressed our concerns.We reported everything to VRBO, opened a case, and provided photos. This was a terrible experience, and I would not recommend staying here.

Winter Wonderland
My family of four our pups enjoyed four days at this home in January of 2025. The house was comfortable and in a great location. We walked under a mile with our sled to a winter sledding park. We went in the hot tub with a yard full of snow. The fenced yard was perfect for letting the pups romp safely. We walked to a he lake each day. It was just perfect for us.

Feels like home
When we first came into the house we felt like we were at home. So cozy, clean and homey. Everything was close by, even the sledding!! Beautiful place to go hiking too near the house.We made a lot of new family memories here and can't wait to come back
