The house was very clean and welcoming. It was perfect for our large group of three families. We enjoyed a nice winter getaway, with ice fishing, a sleigh ride and tubing at a local ski resort. The host, Bob, was very helpful with info about the area and answered any questions we had. He sent a email with so much useful information ahead of time. I really appreciated that extra touch as it helped us to plan our activities. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends and family.
This house was amazing! Loved the layout. The house was outfitted with every amenity and gadget you could ever think of. The owner was great with communicating and very helpful!

Great property for our large family group. Easy communication with property owners. Home equipped with everything you need.
We were a group of 4 couples and we had plenty of room and a great stay! The kitchen was well supplied and we had space to all eat together and play games. The owner had some special treats for us upon our arrival. We had a slight issue with one of the appliances and the owner was able to come right away and work with us. I highly recommend this home and would definitely stay again!
The house is great for a big group. Complementary soda, a bottle of wine, and fresh tomatoes was a great touch to make you feel welcome. Very, very clean and neat.
Hosts were super accommodating. They let us check in early since it was open. The place had tons of items for outdoor fun (fire pit, outdoor games, canoes/kayaks, etc.). Multiple TVs, video game consoles, etc. Hosts live close and came over immediately to address a possible issue and took a fee off for a possible inconvenience.
The house itself is an enhanced modular home with all the bells and whistles. Its incredibly clean and cozy. The rooms are all very large. The house is packed with anything and everything you could think of. The outdoor space is wonderful. Tons of entertaining spaces and a nice trail to the lake. The house is on the end of private road, so no need to worry about traffic. The hosts are super responsive and helpful and dont ask too much of you. Would recommend a million times over.
The property was amazing, clean, and organized. Used for a family gathering/ graduation open house. Plenty of room for everyone. With lots to do outside as well.
We enjoyed staying here and skiing at Otsego for the New Year! The place accommodated our group and ski gear so well! Love all the hooks, bathrooms and seating areas. Excellent find.
The house was very clean. The owner was great with us checking in early. We had a golf group of 8 guys and plenty of sleeping room. We would definitely stay here again!
I can't say enough good things about this house and the owners. We arrived to music playing and the TVs and a very clean house.
The house is perfect for larger groups and even great for families with kids. Would 100% stay again.
The property very comfortably fit our group of 15. The common spaces were large enough for everyone to gather between the living room and the kitchen/dining area. All of the entertainment systems you can ask for. Thank you Bob and Ali!
Had a low key girls weekend enjoying free time and bonfires! Bob was amazing with communication and making sure we knew how everything works and where things were. Way more than we expected in the best ways possible! Looking forward to coming again!
The house is comfortable and well stocked. And with a TV (or two) in every room, entertainment is abundant. Robert was a delight to work with, and he lives just 2 houses away. So if you need anything, he's right there. There is a nice little trail to walk, and our Toby (lab) loved running in the woods. Nice, relaxing weekend!
