The house was perfect for the family to celebrate my Dads 80th Birthday. We has a separate area for the kids downstairs and everything we needed was provided. We Gadd a wonderful view of Elk River. The wrap around porch allowed shat for my parents to view the rest of the family playing in the huge yard. The most comfortable beds. My Mom is very picky and she loved the beds. We had a great time! Can’t wait to do it again.

My friends and I picked this location as a middle ground to meet up with everyone that has moved away. We used this weekend to play a lot of dungeons and dragons in person. The dining table is the perfect table for board games.

Easy to find. Nice quiet neighborhood. Not much traffic so great for taking a walk/run. View of lake is beautiful. Enjoyed sitting on porch with lake view. House was perfect. The kitchen had most everything you would need. Even extra paper towels, dishwasher pods and trash bags. Bathroom also had extras. Bar soap, hand soap. Had a group of 5, plenty of towels. Oh and thanks for having laundry detergent/dryer sheets. Also there was Charcoal and lighter fluid for grill. Beds were comfy. Once the house cooled down from 80 degrees we were able to keep it cool! Check out was at 11. That gave us time for one more breakfast together. Would definitely stay here again. Host was so quick to respond. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay
