Great location and pet friendly!

We had a great 2 night stay here for our fishing vacation. The property was exactly as described and it worked perfectly for us. We enjoyed the wildlife views from the property and close proximity to the boat launch. The house was clean and had more than enough space for us. We will definitely rent if we visit the area again!

Perfect for Fishing

We were looking for a place around Big Stone Lake to stay for a few days to fish and golf. Renting this farmhouse was quick and easy as we wanted middle of the week booking. Pictures are accurate, it is an old farmhouse, but served us well.

Cute little farm house that meet our needs. Intranet/Wifi was excellent. Loved watching the deer right out the front window. Everything we needed for our stay was available. The outside could use TCL as the property is over grown with weeds which prevented us from sitting outside; other then that we had a nice mini vacation.

Great stay!

We had such a nice time staying here. We liked the location to Big Stone Lake State Park and Ortonville. We had all the supplies needed to cook. Everyone had a nice relaxing stay and we even saw deer, pheasants, rabbits and a visiting cow. There was a cute kitten at the house that was spoiled by our family. I recommend this home for larger groups. We had 7 in our party and enjoyed the space.
