Host was very quick and responsive to questions. Can sleep more than the 7 that is listed. Good location by public access to the lake. Lots of room for parking if you have water crafts for the lake. Loved the little touches that were available (dish soap, coffee filters, spices, etc). It helped it feel like a home away from home. Would stay again!

Clean, comfortable, great location

Five friends from the Twin Cities really enjoyed our two-night stay during a pheasant hunting trip. The house was spacious and comfortable, great kitchen, and close to town as well as to a lot of public land.

Great location and pet friendly!

We had a great 2 night stay here for our fishing vacation. The property was exactly as described and it worked perfectly for us. We enjoyed the wildlife views from the property and close proximity to the boat launch. The house was clean and had more than enough space for us. We will definitely rent if we visit the area again!

Perfect for Fishing

We were looking for a place around Big Stone Lake to stay for a few days to fish and golf. Renting this farmhouse was quick and easy as we wanted middle of the week booking. Pictures are accurate, it is an old farmhouse, but served us well.

Annual pheasant hunting trip

Our group of 6 high school buddies had a great time staying at this comfortable house for our annual pheasant hunting trip. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. It was our second stay here. See you next year!
