We arrived at the destination and the house was filthy and unkept. It was beyond dirty - used undergarments on the floor, windows and doors without latches, as well as dilapidated furniture and bedding. The amount of dust on the floors and beddings was inexcusable. The photos did not adequately represent the state of the house and felt completely misled. There was also no way to lock the house and secure our belongings. The WIFI didn't work and there was no phone service. Not only was the cleanliness not up to par, but our group did not feel safe. Our group immediately left and we did not stay there due to the conditions. The host never messaged us back despite many texts and calls. We were expecting a rustic home, but rustic decor and an unkept/outdated house are not the same thing. Do not believe the photos.

My Group: A youth Ministry from the suburbs of Detroit MI. We had 75 in total, 55 teenagers and 20 adults. The Pros: The property was in a great location that allowed our group to have travel days into Olympic and Mt. Raineer National Park, Port Townsend for a whale-watching tour, and Seattle. The property itself is secluded with tons of space! To sleep 75 we brought a bunch of air mattress and slept Girls in the upstairs bunkroom and down stairs bedrooms. For the boys the Middle schoolers piled into the gym room while the highschool group slept in the side of the house with the two great rooms (upstairs empty and downstairs filled with cars) The pond was an absolute blast! We had so much fun every day swimming from morning till night! We used the "game room" to debrief with our team and have teaching times together. For group and quiet times the property had tons of space to spread out. Jim the owner was extremely pleasant and also uses the funds from the rental to do nonprofit work in the city. The Cons: To be honest, the house was not very clean at all when we arrived. we went to the store and bought lots of cleaning supplies. We even bought all new sheets for most of the beds. In addition, the house clearly needs some love as the furniture is dated and everything is worn out. For our group it was fine, although the first day was rough. If you are high maintenance, this rental is not for you. If you are flexible, it is a great deal for the cost!

We had stayed her over 13 years ago and the host was amazing then and now! However, the house not so much. The house was incredibly dirty, Dirty laundry inside the house, dust everywhere, and the house it sell was in desperate need of some TLC. Very large house and great for entertaining large gatherings but I think it is time for a uplift.

It was exactly as I expected; lodge that was large enough for big group, nothing fancy so it felt like we were in the mountains at a place drifters can come through and use and try to leave it better than they found it! Owner is super nice and definitely wants your stay to be enjoyable. Our only downer was that half the lodge was freezing cold due to heater breaking the week before we got there. We made it work but could have have used the extra space. Definitely intend on visiting there again in a warmer time and recommend to large parties for sure.

Beautiful property. So much space to spread out and common places to come together. This is our families 3rd time at this property, and each time holds special memories. Jim is a very gracious host.

We had a wonderful time staying at the house. There was plenty of space for everyone and a great VHS collection. I would recommend this property to anyone doing a retreat weekend or multi family get away.
