Disliked: Cleanliness
We recently stayed at this property, and while the home itself was lovely—clean, well-stocked, and very comfortable—our overall experience was impacted by a major construction project on the property. Unfortunately, we were not informed ahead of time. The construction was loud, messy, and intrusive, which significantly reduced our enjoyment of the stay.That said, the host was kind and accommodating, even allowing us an early check-in. Once the construction is complete, I would gladly recommend this home 100%—it has everything you could want. However, until the work is finished, I would advise future guests to proceed with caution.I did reach out to vrbo Sept 19, told them I was uncomfortable with the situation and they offered me no options.
You can see the new build to the side. This is at the entrance of the home.

Great place and location!

This is was our 10th year finding a summer vacation stay for our family of 12 and this place will be highly ranked on our list. This house was clean and well stocked with plenty of space to spread out when needed. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was a huge plus. We do A LOT of cooking during the week-long stay so the second fridge in the garage was a huge plus, along with the space in the garage to store bins of stuff for the week. The pontoon boat was great to take out on the lake a couple of times. The communication from the owner was great even though we didn't have any needs - it's always nice to have someone check in just in case. The location being a much shorter drive than normal was a benefit as well. This place really had everything we needed and we would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay! Beautiful home right on the lake. It was so clean and the pantry was stocked. This is the first time I’ve stayed at a place offering amenities. It felt like home. The only set back is I wish they allowed for more guests than just 12. I’d love to rent this place for Christmas

Great stay for Ivory North wedding

This was the perfect stop for my large family to stay for my brother’s wedding at Ivory North. The place was very clean and comfortable. Beautiful location. Well stocked. Host was very responsive when contacted. We had guests ranging from age 1-65 and it fit everyone’s needs. 15 minutes from Ivory North. Our only regret was not booking the place for longer so we could enjoy the property more. Highly recommend.

Fantasy Football Draft/Golf/Guys Weekend

We had a very nice stay at this house on Knife Lake. We are a group of 10 (8 came up this year) high school/grade school buddies that have a annual trip for our fantasy Football Draft and to play golf, participate in usual shenanigans and to just hang out. The house was very spacious and well appointed. The local golf course, Spring Brook is very inexpensive and really pretty nice. We did not use the pontoon but spent some evenings on the dock and fire pit area. Also spent a lot of time out on the decks and patio area. Several of us kayaked around the lake which is pretty decent in size, about 1100 acres. All were perfect. Heather is very responsive and everything was seamless. Highly recommend.

Wedding weekend stay

My family stayed here over the weekend of my son’s wedding at Ivory North. We had a wonderful time. The house was very clean and spacious and the kitchen was perfect for preparing meals for our guests. The beds were comfortable! We were able to use the kayaks multiple times throughout our stay which provided enjoyment and relaxation for everyone. Our only negative comment is that the lake water was quite green and mucky, so we were not comfortable swimming.

Amazing and wonderful

This property was so very perfect for our extended family group of 12. Spacious and beautifully appointed, there was room for all, and the main kitchen / family area provided everything we needed for all of our family meals. We only left the property a couple times in 4 days for a few essentials. We brought most of our food and there was ample storage space in the two fridges and walk-in pantry. The beach and dock provided for swimming and fishing fun for the kids, as well as the kayaks that were available. The fire pit was a lovely gathering place and the wood to use was right there for us. We also rented the boat and got to explore the lake over the days we were there. It was fun to see and hear the loons on the lake, and watch a resident eagle frequently soar overhead. Finally, the beds were all comfortable and everyone got good rest at the end of each day. We highly recommend this property and the hosts and plan to reserve again next year!
