Merry Givings

My family struggles to get together for the holidays so we created Merry Givings in between the holiday's. We celebrated at this perfect VRBO in a winter wonderland. It had everthing we needed and welas perfect for my group of family. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were warm and comfortable, hot tub was enjoyed and a great neighborhood for walks in the snow with family! Thanks for the wonderful memories!

The property itself was very nice but we’re pretty sure it was haunted. One night there was a man like figure watching through the window.

Annual winter snowmobile trip

Plenty of parking for four trucks and one snowmobile trailers. Plenty of bedrooms and sufficient bathrooms. Thankfully, no bunkbeds as pictured. These had been replaced in the larger upstairs bedroom with two full size beds. Nice hot tub after a cold day of snowmobiling. Our only issue was lack of wash clothes - not even one per person for a whole week.

Would definitely stay here again

The house was clean and accessible, a good size for our large family. The post said there would be a bunk bed room, which there was not. Functionally this wasn't a big deal for our bed needs, but my autistic son was expecting to sleep in a bunk bed and it made for a rocky beginning. The setting was beautiful, but someone in the neighborhood was blasting loud music a lot. Not during the quiet hours, but it was still a little much and made being outside a little less pleasant. Managers were very responsive and helpful. Would stay here again.

Andrea- thanks for staying at Forest Lake Cabin. The owners stayed just before you and surprised us by removing the bunk bed and installed a queen bed. We're not sure who was playing music, but we're glad it wasn't during quiet hours. You're welcome back anytime!

Nice place, but hot tub didn’t work

The house was very clean and in great shape. The hot tub however, was not running on arrival. A crew arrived to fix the hot tub a couple of days after we arrived, and once they left, the water was yellow and said needed a new filter. We left the next morning and we were never able to use it our entire stay. Very disappointed the hot tub was not working, this was one of the reasons we chose this house to stay in. The house itself was great, lots of space for us to hang out and a lovely dining room where we played lots of card games. The Wi-Fi was not strong however throughout the house and only worked in the front two rooms. A back bedroom had a tv with a Roku that we could never get to work since the WiFi didn’t reach back that far. Overall, the place was very nice and we would rent another house from this company, just not this particular location.

Family ski vacation

This house was everything that it was billed to be. Plenty of room for our large group to sleep and stretch out. We especially liked the well stocked kitchen. It had all of the necessary pots pans and griddles to do all of our cooking. Plus it's only 10 to 15 minutes to Tamarack for skiing.

Donnelly cabin in December

The location was great, size and layout of the cabin worked wonderfully for our family gathering. The large dining table was especially great for meals and playing games together. The only sub par comment I would have is the beds were not the most comfortable. Overall the space and what they provide in the cabin to meet our needs was spot on.
