Really great house with a view that cannot be beat. Only twin beds in the three bedrooms so couples had to sleep apart. Really clean and furnished for most things. The Host(s) are so wonderful and communicated everything well. Really appreciated everything they provided.

The Whitefish chain of lakes can get pretty busy, but this cabin is located in a fairly secluded area of Trout Lake. Everything about the cabin was great. It was quiet, good lake access, and very clean. The owners were very easy to work with.
