Everything was amazing. The house, location, amenities. Our host was the absolute best. It's a big house so a question or two came up and Michael was super quick to respond and just a great guy. The kitchen was a breeze to cook in and quite stocked so we took full advantage of it and cooked some amazing food. And after a dip in the crystal clear hot tub, some of us sat in front of the fireplace and the rest around the huge dining room table, playing board games that were in the house. Beds were all super comfortable and clean. It was GOOD TIMES for sure. Great for a big group

Staying here at this cabin was a no brainer. We stayed here for new years with friends and having the open kitchen and living room with the wood fired stone chimney was amazing. Having the hot tub out on the deck for before the ball drop and after the ball drop was exactly what we were looking for! And Michael was so easy to talk to with very quick responses was so nice to have, making our stay easy and reassured for comfortable living. Thank you for your beautiful home and we look forward to staying here in the future!!!

Perfect kid-free getaway!

Beautiful property in a fantastic location. We were able to see bald eagles flying overhead from the hot tub, watch the locals out ice fishing while we walked around the lake & then come inside to enjoy a wood burning fireplace & cook meals in a full loaded kitchen with almost any utensils or spices you could imagine. Such a homey, quiet place to stay & enjoy some R&R. Easy communication & check in/out procedures. We hope to return again next winter!

Anniversary Getaway

I've stayed at this property a few times, and I always love to come back. It's a great place to spend the weekend with friends, and a quiet, peaceful place to spend some time alone with a partner, which is what my husband and I did this weekend. There is nothing more relaxing than gazing at the stars in a secluded hot tub. The property is spacious and spotless. Communication with the owner is flawless and easy, and he even recommended some great places for us to visit during our stay. This weekend was five stars, as it has been every time I have visited Bohemion Rhapsody.

Some(place) to love

This Bohemian Rhapsody was an absolute dream! The house is spacious, easy to get to, and perfectly situated right on the water with stunning views. It was impeccably clean, with a pristine hot tub that we thoroughly enjoyed. The kitchen was incredibly well-stocked—an absolute joy to use for a big cook like me. The beds were super comfortable, and every detail of the home was beautifully appointed. Communication with the host was seamless and made the experience even better. Highly recommend this gem!
