We got the key code on the day of the reservation and not the day before. Couch was cozy. Kitchen was well equipped. Huge backyard (lots of dog poo tho haha) but we had fun taking photos by the lake!!

This was the perfect cabin for my friends and I to celebrate the New Year! The host was super responsive anytime we had an issue. The property was very clean and had a ton of space for us to hang out! The hot tub was especially nice to relax in in the snow! We definitely will be booking this cabin again, but for the summertime!

We really enjoyed our stay however, the communication of the property owner as soon as I booked put a sour taste in my mouth. Apparently, Verbo had messed up the minimum night stay and their nightly rate, the property owner felt it necessary to let us know all of this, it felt like a guilt trip, very unprofessional. Everything was great other than the one and only bedroom on the first floor was insanely hot. Therefore, we had to drop the temperature and the rest of the house was absolutely an icebox. We really enjoyed the hot tub, everything was clean, very nice property.

Just WOW!

We stayed at this property for just one night, so my friends and I could go skiing for the weekend and hit the spa. We only stayed for one night and wish we could've stayed longer. The house was incredibly cozy, clean, well stocked, and just the PERFECT little cabin. It's the type of place you never want to leave. The owner communicated well and was super sweet to extend our check out time for a very fair fee. We are already plotting to come back this summer to enjoy swimming and water activities, and we are certainly going to stay longer this time. The location on the lake and proximity to the stores is just awesome too. Can't say enough good things about this home.

Great Property/Amenities

The house, location, amenities were all as described. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The shed out back is two fold, the front side is a bar with a tv in it which made it extra nice while sitting in the hot tub. On the backside of the shed there are several paddle boards, and chairs. Though we didn’t use it, there is also a corn hole set available to use. The large yard is great for dogs. Plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the view, sit in the shade or in the sun. The private boat slip is good and we rented a boat for the week so it was nice to have it docked at the hose. Inside we played card games at the bar and it was nice that a mini fridge is down there to hold the beverages. The owner can’t control this - geese love the yard and dock. We cleaned off the dock the first two days and the geese picked up on it and left it alone for the rest of the week. Not a major task, just be mindful of it before kids or pets go running on the dock. The owner is very easy to communicate with before and during the stay. Great place and very relaxing week at the lake!
