Started the reservation with great communication from owner and had to make changes to dates a few times and he was very accommodating. Over all the place was exactly as desribed and worked perfectly for quick access to snowmobile trails. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again in the future.

Great for 1-2 people. Very clean. Comfy bed. Creative use of space. Well equipped. Did not realize I had a BBQ grill waiting or I would have picked up some fresh salmon/whitefish from the fish market on the hill! TV/wireless worked perfect. Would highly recommend for 1-2 night stays.

This converted shipping container was perfect for our 3 night stay. Excellent use of space complete with all the comforts of home. Thoughtfully stocked with the basics such as ours, pans, utensils, hot plate, Keurig, air fryer/oven, bedding, towels, etc. Close to town, restaurants, etc. 10 out of 10 would stay there again

Very quiet: out in the rural woods. Compact and minimalist (in a nice way) that had the essentials for a comfortable overnite with no wasted frills. No regrets on this choice.

Liked: Cleanliness
The shipping container was easy to find. I was very impressed with all the things the owner had managed to squeeze into this tiny living space! The shower and bathroom were well done. The kitchen had everything you need including a fridge/freezer and even a cooktop! The keurig was a little wonky but I made it work. We were able to watch our favorite show and then sleep in a very comfortable air conditioned space. It was unseasonably cool the night we were there so we just kept the window open. Yes there is even a window - so natural light does come in. We saw a deer and fawn when we woke up in the morning. It was like camping but with a real bed. I wish we had the key to open up the side of the container in the morning just to experience that but no big deal. For some reason hotel rooms in this area were very expensive at this time and having this alternative worked out well for us! The mattress was a bit soft and my husband ended up sleeping in the side chair but I slept fine.
