"Best vacation EVER!! It was absolutely amazing. Tons of room for all of us. Screen room was amazing in the morning" - M. Family
"We all truly enjoyed our stay. The property is spacious and lovely. The beds were comfortable (you never know with VRBO). Thank you so much for opening up your beautiful home!" - Z. Family
"Thank you for allowing us to have a great family vacation. The bedrooms allowed everyone to sleep comfortably. The kitchen and dining area allowed us more than enough room to prepare the meals and eat with all at one sitting. We loved the quietness of the location our grandchildren to play and not disturb the neighbors. The road is not busy so our family took bike rides. We had a great time and if we ever come back to Washington Island we would love to stay here again" - M. Family
"We had a wonderful time! Loved the bunk house, tons of space, the grill and beautiful yard. Thank you for labeling the light switches and for the stacked wood for the outside fireplace. The paper products provided for bathrooms and kitchen and other extras like puzzles. There is enough individual space and the hot water was :). Thank you for the opportunity to stay here!" - S. Family
