Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
It was as pictured. The garden tub was dirty and gross. The houses around us were abandoned. It was quiet. We were there in winter, snow accumulated over 8 inches 2 days. No problem, we r yoopers, but NO street plowing, no actual shovel. We had our own shovel and capable vehicles. Love the surrounding towns, lots to do. No heat upstairs, but plenty of blankets. Oven was smokey and dirty, but worked. Great hot water and heater downstairs, just needs to overflow up. We also live in old house, we had vents to get heat up, and electric fireplace...just a suggestion. Beds on the floor everywhere. No foundations, low ceilings..good for young kids or teens. Overall...Meh.

Cozy, comfortable, convenient, great stay

Seven guys one bedroom, how is that going to work. Everyone in our group was questioning my judgement. It worked out great, everyone had their own bed, very comfortable and having one bathroom was not an issue, plenty of hot water. We were up snowmobiling, so coming home and having a large area to unwind was great, easy sleding right out the door. The kitchen was well equipped lots of pots and pans.

Up for a ski speed camp weekend

House was very close to the Snow River ski area. Nice and convenient to the town of Wakefield with gas and a Dollar general. Also the bakery has very good donuts, and pastys. Our first time to the UP and first time using a VRBO. Nina the host was very helpful with our questions. And even allowed a late drop of one day with a refund. This was due to the plan of bringing our snowmobiles but NO snow. The neighbor was very nice too! Hearing his stories makes me want to come back next year with more snow! House is updated and clean with everything you need.

Cute and clean

This little lodge worked well for our needs for our family of 7 for a Monday-Friday stay. The house was clean, comfortable and affordable. It was important that we had a wi fi connection that was reliable and we were pleased that our son was able to log in for work purposes. He didn’t have any connectivity issues. The nearby town had a great bakery and a cute locally sourced gift shop. We recommend both! As we were there in summer and weren’t in area to ski, we spent our time taking day trips between 30 min to one hour+ away from the house. This house would really be ideal for the winter visitor as ski destinations are close by, but it worked out well for our needs and we would stay here again.
