Love the huge porch and the well stocked kitchen!

The home is very spacious- plenty of room for everyone to sleep. We rented a boat and docked it at the home's pier - very convenient. No lake views, but beautiful views of the woods. Easy drive to town and local restaurants.

This cabin was perfect for our group of 15. The house was heated on arrival and the driveway plowed (it had been snowing most of the day). The kitchen was perfect for prepping all the meals for our large group. Plenty of appliances, utensils, dishes, and cookware. Dining seating was sufficient for our groups needs and a lot of large seating areas to interact, play games, or just sit and read. Bedrooms were comfortable and nicely furnished. Due to weather we did not get outdoors, but what we could see of the property, it was a beautiful setting. We would use this cabin again and recommend it to others.

We loved the house, and especially all the room to spread out. It was such a beautiful home, and we’ll thought out.

Wonderful setting. We enjoyed our stay at the property. The owners have really gone above and beyond with the details to accommodate their guests. Thank you

The house is fantastic! New appliances and great floor plan for four bedrooms. We had four families with teenage and college age kids. Deck, dock (we had three boats) and fire pit are great. The only complaint is the walk from the house to the dock. If you have toddlers or grandparents with you this is going to be an issue.

We booked this home planning for a larger group, and there is certainly room for everyone. Unfortunately, due to unforseen circumstances, we were only a group of four adults. But we still had a great time. The house was extremely clean with a well stocked kitchen (though we couldn't find the salt and pepper!). The only downside is the access to the river - very steep and not very convenient. So we were unable to take advantage of the water, somewhat disappointing. Otherwise, we had a great stay!

The house itself is beautiful and has mostly everything you need. There are tons of dishes,pots,pans, serve ware, etc in the kitchen. You can tell though they don’t clean the stuff that isn’t used often though so make sure to clean dishes before using. That’s the only downfall about having everything you could need in a kitchen. The house was not cleaned the best before we got there, the coffee table was clearly not moved when they vacuumed and we found crumbs and old orange slices under it, spiders and webs on multiple ceilings (could have easily just been dusted before we got there), sticky (soda spill) on the basement floor, dirty/moldy shower curtain liner upstairs that could easily be replaced. These things aren’t the worse just things you don’t want to have to clean when on vacation. We had to replace several light bulbs right when we got there, had to vacuum, clean up sticky floor, etc. We brought brats to grill but did not have access to the grill (in the garage your not allowed to go in). I messaged Vacasa and they said they would reach out to local management, never heard back about it. On the last day (checkout day) we had to leave by 10, and it was icy/snowy. I remembered I got an email earlier saying you could request late checkout and it did not say you had to do that at a certain day or time so I messaged Vacasa to request that. Apparently you have to request that the day before by either 4pm or 10pm (got both answers when talking to Vacasa rep). Also heads up and maybe people would know this but we didn’t that you have to bring/buy your own wood for the wood burning fireplace. There was some by the garage but was wet so wouldn’t burn well. We just went to town to the gas station and got about 6 bundles. Overall I liked the house just the management company that cleans and deals with the customer service was the bad experience. I probably won’t be rent a Vacasa property again.

This home was very nice and accommodated our large family gathering with lots of room for the littles to play. The kitchen was large and had enough of everything that we didn't need to bring any large pans or crock pots to cook.
A few items we weren't aware of.
There is a steep hill that accesses the water. The owners are installing a staircase but it was not completed. It would be hard for someone with mobility issues to get to the water.
There are 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor that are NOT air conditioned. This was not in the listing. We were lucky that the weather was 75 or lower during our stay as it still got warm upstairs. The owners had a new portable A/C unit upstairs but it was not installed. We read through the instructions and it is meant to be installed on a double hung or slider style window, which there are none of on the 2nd floor.
The second floor bathroom shower doors barely slide and the tub drains extremely slow.
We would stay again, but not until there is A/C on the 2nd floor.

Beautiful location & amenities marred by discovery of mouse droppings in several guests bedding & malfunctioning lockbox making entry difficult.

We had four families all stay together for a week of fun! The property and house were amazing! The kitchen had everything you could need. You can tell they are working on updating the house and are doing a great job! Plenty of towels for everyone. Once the upstairs bathroom and the outside stairs are finished this place is going to be truly amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
4.0
Very nice property and location. However, it needs a some improvements asap to get a 5. The upstairs bathroom is in terrible condition especially for the nightly rate we paid. The shower upstairs also didn’t drain properly so you had to shower quickly or deal with water to your ankles. The house also lacked adequate supplies of toilet paper, garbage bags, dishwasher pods, and cleaning supplies especially for a four bedroom property. When the stairs to the lake are finished that will help too since getting down to the river was difficult for some.
5.0
We had a great family vacation here. Beautiful area. The walk down to the dock is a bit challenging. Stairs are being constructed but not done currently.

Winter Getaway
Very nice property with plenty of room for our large group. Kitchen and other areas fully furnished and place was very clean. Driveway was level with plenty of room for many vehicles.
Worked our well for our ice fishing and snowmobiling getaway.

Great location and spacious property
This property was perfect for our family. Large rooms and 3 levels, plus the amazing kitchen. The people managing this property were available all the time I needed to reach them and their service was excellent. I would definitely love to come back next time .

Our little honeymoon! Loved that we had our boys (2 yorkie dogs) with us.
Loved the place entirely, the fire place & fire pit were awesome ! (We brought our own wood supply - non is provided.) Loved the use of their canoe & doc. Loved the kitchen, awesome kitchen! & the deck was beautiful, my little guys loved the over look!
The lights & music were on when we arrived making it feel so warm & welcoming!
We have friends who are going to book this place by our recommendation for their get away.
We plan to come back, hopefully this winter!

Fantastic!!!
Well appointed - especially the kitchen! Exceptionally clean. Very dog friendly! The beds are really comfortable and the entire house is inviting. Loved the outdoor spaces and use of canoe and kayaks.

Quiet
Beautiful home and setting. Completely surrounded by trees. You can’t see the water from the home, but that’s ok. The kitchen is huge and can easily accommodate a large group. The deck is large with ample seating. The home comes with a lot of supplies to make your home more comfortable. They provide books to read, cushions for the chairs, tons of cooking utensils including a crockpot! Lots of bathrooms. Overall a great place to stay.

Nice place
Very nice home with lots of space to sleep. Just wish the check-in instructions were sent sooner, the WiFi password was correct, the hill to the dock was listed somewhere, and the check-in times were more reasonable

Not worth the money we paid for this house
I have previously emailed my ratings and few words what was wrong with the property. The AC was not working properly, floors were dirty, the basic kitchen stuff like salt pepper sugar were not available. The canoe was useless and it needs to be removed for safety. There was 16 of us and we understand that everyone has their own opinions but these were the major issues everyone agreed upon. To pay so much money for a weekend getaway, this house is not worth it. I'm sorry, I am not a person to complain and never do but this had to get out there for future reservations. Not worth that much money. And also, the photos of the property are enlarging the actual sizes inside and outside the property.

Dog Friendly
This is a new listing, so the owners were still getting a few things settled. Besides that our stay was quite pleasant. It's so rare to find a place who says pet friendly and truly means it. Our dog did not have to be in a kennel or crate, he was free to be himself. He got to run down to the river and swim to his hearts content, which made us very happy. We even got to continue his training in one of our kayaks we brought and we took him on his first canoe ride with the canoe that was provided. It was a wonderful experience. We did try fishing the river and lake with no luck. I recommend getting a heavy weight to keep you tied down otherwise the current and wind will drag the canoe and make fishing impossible. We also recommend a different coffee maker as the current one is off kilter. You have to hold the coffee pot up to make the button go in so the coffee flows through otherwise it all holds up inside the machine. Two easy fixes though for the owners, if they want. Otherwise, the place is beautiful, private, and well stocked. The kitchen is a chef and bakers dream, and there is a great deck for bbq'ing which we did every night thanks to the awesome staff nearby Brian and Katie who helped us out with a gas grill. There is a big area for a fire pit to roast marshmallows, and more. This place is huge and sure to be more than anyone needs to enjoy themselves for a relaxing getaway from the city. Thank you for sharing your home with us. My husband and our dog enjoyed ourselves. My especially favorite spot was the chair by the bottom of the staircase. It's super comfortable so are the pillows. Perfect spot to read a book with a great scenery if the woods and nature.
