End of the road, quiet... a secluded tucked away magical place to stay. The windows... the windows are the art... we didn't even want to go anywhere for sunset, watching the endless sunset from the house was magic. THANK YOU! We will be back. ##### Joel H. Stayed 8 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Francine O., Minneapolis, MN USA 7 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect location We enjoyed this property, especially the nice (15-20 minute) walk into town along the lake. We even were able to enjoy the New Year's Eve fireworks (partial view) from the deck. The location and views could not be more fantastic. The house was very comfortable for our family of 7 adults. We cooked there a few times and found the kitchen well stocked. It is an older house but everything worked well enough. One suggestion ~ the fry pans need to be replaced; everything stuck to them and they are warped. The only other issue we found is that the downstairs, separate bedroom had a bit of a musty smell. The property manager provided more air fresheners and suggested running the AC at all times, which improved the situation. My daughter and her husband, who stayed there, thought the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom worked well. They also opened the window as much as possible to help get fresh air in. No screens anywhere though, so at night we had to be careful of lights. ##### Francine O. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kirstie H. 13 May 2019 #### Amazing !!
