The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay at "The Ship". Special thanks to the Krainen folks, who were pleasant, cooperative, ready to help with any question or small issues (very few). Though just across the camp road, the private waterfront, dock and float are highlights. Good fishing too! Thank you, we may be back another year. (Rent your linens, SO much easier.) ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolyn H. 12 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent base for family reunion of 3 generations (9 adults, 7 children). Plenty of space to spread out. Kitchen was well stocked with anything we needed, the pool and air hockey tables were much appreciated and the dock/swimming area was great. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and the dock was sturdy. This was the first time we’ve rented a place without bedding and towels included and it was a bit of a hassle to bring our own, but wouldn’t stop us from renting again. All in all, a great week and we’re grateful for the memories! ##### Carolyn H.
