There were plenty of beds and restrooms to accommodate our group. I was worried reading some of the reviews about cleanliness but the house was clean when we arrived. The outdoor area is the best part of the house. There were plenty of activities for the kids and a lot of space for snow play and sledding. We also enjoyed the space to walk around and take in the outdoors. Kim was also very friendly and easy to communicate with. I can’t wait to come back. ##### Diana R.

We got to relax and enjoy multiple small communities around the area, restaurants, pubs, and bakeries. The only thing that could of been better a good power wash outside tables and patio/porch since the outside was the reason why we loved this place. But again this place was perfect for our family. Thank you for leanding us your home for a weekend. ##### Faviola B. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 4/10 Poor #### Bre T. 9 Jul 2021 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Lots of potential The property is large and beautiful, but there was a cleanliness problem. The oven was caked in grime and bathroom vents were caked in dirt and dust. Before bed we all had to wash our feet because walking barefoot in the house meant that your feet would be black by the end of the night. The hosts seem like very lovely people, and the property truly has a lot of potential, but my family and I couldn’t get past how dirty it was. There were also a few broken items that were listed — the mini zip line being one of them. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again unless there was a significant change how the cleaning is done. It’s a shame really because the property is so nice. ##### Bre T.

My group of friends had a wonderful time staying at this large property over the weekend. Communication with the property manager was perfect as they were always prompt to reply and helpful. The only concerns we had were that the bed-count was a little confusing in the listing and that we were told to bring our own bedding well after booking, but otherwise, we were incredibly happy with our stay (also some of the puzzles are missing pieces - could do with a refresh) and felt very cozy and safe. The town was beautiful and the people were friendly! The property was gorgeous and there was plenty of room for outdoor recreation. We would be happy to recommend this piece of property to anyone looking for a place to stay, if only to, again, have the pleasure of working with Kim, who was amazing to communicate with throughout. ##### Mylene M.
