  This truly was a snowmobilers paradise! Every year my husband and I plan a couples snowmobile weekend. We typically travel to Orr, MN but I decided to try something new this year. This home was beyond perfect for our group. We each had our own bedroom and bathroom, were able to make breakfast before hitting the trails, and had a nice warm hot tub outside to end our long day in. The snowmobile trail starts off the South East side of the lake, which made this a very convenient location. Trails are kept very well groomed. We plan to make this our new yearly couples trip location. Thank you for opening your home for us to rent!

  Owner response: Sorry this response is so late in coming, but we're thrilled that you had such a good time at our vacation home. It was a great winter for snowmobiling, and considering the weather lately, it is probably a good spring for snowmobiling too! We just want to thank you for renting our home for the weekend in March, and do hope we'll see you there again in the future!

  4 words....This house is awesome! We rented this house for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. 12 adults and 7 children piled in for 3 nights of great memories in the making. What a beautiful space you have. There was plenty of room for everyone. The older kids slept in the amusement room downstairs, and what a great area that was for them. We filled all of the rest of the rooms. The house had all of the comforts of home for us. We had fun playing in the yard and fishing off the dock. Many fish were caught. Thank you for leaving the dock in for us. We all enjoyed the hot tub, and just lounging around the house for what was a successful anniversary weekend. My mom and dad were truly surprised and impressed with your lake home. Thank you for sharing it with us!

  We held our company retreat at this beautiful home. We didn't lack anything in the kitchen to put out some great meals. We had contests in the yard, a lovely bonfire, and a little jacuzzi dipping too! Our training took place on the deck which was really refreshing. The entire staff thoroughly enjoyed this get-away. There is more than enough room to hold a number of small meetings and the living room fit all of us. The fall leaves were out so everything was stunning.

  Owner response: We are so happy that your business retreat went well, and that our home accommodated your needs so well! The floorplan and room options really do lend themselves to many different types of gatherings. Thank you very much for your business, and when you schedule your next training retreat, please keep us in mind!

  We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this amazing lakehome. There were 13 of us in our group. We had plenty of room for each person/couple to have there own private sleeping quarters. There is alot of neat places is this lakehome to "escape" from the rest of the group and enjoy a good book or just take in the beautiful north woods scenery. We also enjoyed several evenings of campfire down by the lake. We had 3 boats with us and plenty of dock space for all three. We were very impressed with this lakehome and would highly recommend a stay to anyone looking for a northern getaway. The house cleaners and Jeremy where very nice to deal with and very friendly. Always willing to help any way they can. Hope to return sometime in the coming year.

  Owner response: We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay with us! We had a terrific summer, and are grateful for wonderful renters like you who came to have a good time, but also treated our home with the same consideration you would your own home. As the summer comes to a close, we are looking forward to an equally rewarding fall and winter. This vacation spot has appeal in all seasons! Thank you again for choosing our vacation home in Pengilly for your family gathering, and we hope you can come back again sometime in the future!

  This property is gorgeous, it was all as advertised. We had 16 people there for part of the week, but we never felt crowded. The porch off the living room was a great place to get away from it all. The home was clean and well supplied with all the comforts of home, plus some(the hot tub, 65"tv and spacious game room). The fishing was good, even with the high water. The brand new tennis court in Pengilly and the Mesabi bike trail were highlights of our stay. It was hard to choose activities with so much to choose from. I think it will be hard to rent other places, after being spoiled by this beautiful property.

  Owner response: We are so glad you found many fun activities to choose from while staying at our lake home! It really is a wonderful place, whether you're looking to be very active or just need quiet time to relax. Thanks for letting us help you make some great family memories from the summer of 2012!

  My husband, 2 sons, and I rented this beautiful cabin home with my sister and her family for the week...we flew in from Phoenix and they drove up from Iowa. Since we live so far away from each other we only get to see each other once or twice a year. This beautiful cabin was the perfect place for us to relax and just enjoy each others' company! The kids loved having all the outdoor (and indoor) space to run and play with their cousins, and spent much time fishing off the dock and playing in the sand and water at the little beach. The house was spotless and very comfortable, making us feel right at home, and both Carol and Jeremiah were wonderful to work with! I have no complaints whatsoever and would highly recommend it to everyone! Who knows...we may just go back again sometime!
