A great spot to slow down and reconnect with loved ones and Mother Nature. But with the convenience of being 10-15 minutes away from everything. We really enjoyed our stay! The space has everything you could need and then some. ##### Patrick W.

We sat looking out the window or off the deck for hours. It had a perfect view of the Northern lights. It was like our own personal showing.. Priceless. The property had lots of warm drinks and all the extras you may forget to bring. The owner had great communication and was beyond accommodating. Close to town but feels like country. Highly recommended.. especially if a cozy spot for relaxation while watching the lights are on your list. ##### Heather Renae Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P., Warren 2 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### That view though 😍 This rental was awesome. Definitely wouldnt recommended for anyone who has trouble with stairs since its a full flight to access the livingsrea, BUT if you dont mind that...youd love it. The place was roomy,, very clean and the view off the back porch was INCREDIBLE. communication with our host was top notch, the house is removed from city life, but a very short drive gets you anything you need. Just a great place wuth a great location. I gave 3 stars for " accuracy of online listing" ONLY because when i firrst rented the place we did so because th listing said there was a hot tub. However our host quickly informed us that was a typo and she would be glad to refund our money if that was a deal breaker. We decided to forget about the hottub and keep our reservation and im glad we did. This place , the view, its location to town and everything else was amazing. 5 out of 5 for sure. ##### Michael P.
