Great stay for 10 of us on a golf trip. Plenty of room and easy instruction of getting in and out. Only downfall was no AC in the hot summer months. But with windows open, it wasn’t bad at all.

Great Stay

This house was very close to many sites: Frankfort, Beulah beach, Iron Fish Distillery. The house was very comfortable and clean. The kitchen was stocked with the utensils and cookware needed for us to make dinner. Plenty of blankets and towels were provided. We enjoyed having our coffee in the morning in the screened in front porch.

Perfect for what we needed

We were at Crystal for a conference and this was a great spot with ideal accommodations for four of us. We actually didn't spend a ton of time in the house. One minor irritant - we had to still the beds. But that's not really a big deal

Family ski trip

As a past guest I was a little disappointed in the house this time. It wasn’t as clean as it was previously. We were given one roll of toilet paper per bathroom. I know we are supposed to purchase our own supplies but when arriving at night with a group, two rolls would be appreciated by guests to get us started. I couldn’t find any extra pillows for the futon. The listing says there is firewood but we did not see any this time. Many of the dishes were dirty. We had to wash them before we used them. Last time we rented there were pictures on the walls but they are gone now. It just needs a little updating. Lastly, they need new mattresses. The mattresses are very worn and soft. A toilet was broken upon arrival and she had it fixed right away. I don’t mean to complain but owning rental property myself I would want to know these things.

New Years Fun!

We had a great time! Great place, lots of kitchen amenities, beds were comfortable, very spacious for all 14 of us. We could have used more toilet paper and maybe some Kleenex. That is the only thought we had. Beautiful place, clean, comfortable and perfect for all of us. Thank you so much for such a great place to celebrate the new year!

Great Up North Home

This house was perfect for our extended family gathering. The location was nice, great firepit, and responsive host. The screened in porch was so nice (although could use a little upgrade on the furniture). Overall it was a great home and we highly recommend it!

Great family spot

We booked a weekend here for our whole family which is comprised of 12 people. Finding space for this many people can be a challenge but this was absolutely perfect. Everyone felt they had adequate space and there were many options of places to explore that were not too far of a drive away. The highlight for many in our party was the 3 season porch which was occupied almost every night.

Bedding was not good. No bath soap. No coffee. No instructions for tv. Couldn’t find towels until we looked in dryer. Porch furniture was dirty and uncomfortable. No chairs by fire pit. Certainly not worth what we paid.
