Beautiful Fabulous Family Space!
Beautiful views, very spacious & well equipped with plenty of towels/blankets/pillows. Comfy beds! Kitchen had what we needed. WiFi worked great! We really enjoyed the fire pit…bring some firewood and camp chairs! Loved access to the kayaks for lake exploration/fishing. The loons, cranes and bald eagles were breathtaking! We also rented the pontoon…So. Much. Fun. This house did not disappoint!!

Wonderful friends/family trip
My friends and I take a trip with our families every year and this was our first time staying at this location and we loved it! The bedrooms were great for the four couples and the children/teenagers enjoyed the loft and downstairs. The view is beautiful from the deck and firepit. Yes, as others mentioned, there were stairs to the dock, but they are sturdy and not that bad. We had no issues. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were nicely updated. Loved the large living room with plenty of space for all of us to sit on rainy days. There were also more towels for our use then I have ever seen in any VRBO, so that was much appreciated. The kitchen had plenty of cooking supplies and cooking utensils and loved having two refrigerators (one was downstairs). Communication was also very good with the owners. We did rent the boat and if you do just be careful because even though there is a map that outlines shallow areas, the whole coastline seems pretty shallow. So after one mishap, which again we had great communication with the owners, we stayed to the middle of the lake. The driveway also has plenty of room for multiple vehicles if family members need to drive separately. We definitely plan on going back.

Wonderful
A beautiful home located in an even more beautiful little enclave in the north Woods. Perfect any time of season. Walleye and bass fishing in the summer, atvs almost year round and snowmobiling come winter. Vast network of riding trails for all of the recreational types. Ryan and family are gracious hosts and you can count on it, we'll be back, except this time for some winter pleasures. Cheers.
