"A wonderful & beautiful 3 days. Beautifully appointed & well maintained with first class furnishings, linens, bedding, decor & accessories. I couldn't have asked for anything more. If I didn't have over 500 in key points I would never have been able to afford my stay. In my estimation as a business owner, there’s nothing wrong in asking for a price if you can get it. As a property without laundry facilities I think it too high… but really nevertheless loved it!"

Comfortable and cozy getaway in the heart of Crosslake

10/10 Excellent
"The space is a nice design and a good size. It was a nicer place than I expected. It was very nicely decorated and had all the little things that a person might need. We would stay here again. The only surprise was that the main “bedroom” with the King bed is open on top and not connected to the ceiling. With the metal ceiling there was no separation/privacy for noises / lights. If the tv was on or lights were on you could hear or see very easily. This was fine for us but if you would have small children napping or need privacy/ separate space it’s not an option."
