This was a great location. Clean house close to Crystal where we spent the weekend skiing. We would recommend this to anyone that would be looking for a place to stay and have time for their winter snow sports.

Was a perfect cabin for our wedding visit. Well stocked with everything we needed. Clean, comfortable and a good value for two couples. Everthing was as advertised, close to venue and market in Mesick for essentials. Thanks

Short Stay on the way home

The check in process was convenient and the cabin suited our needs for one night. The cabin was well stocked with anything we might need and there was plenty of room in the front to walk our dogs.

We stayed 6 nights. We were very satisfied and will stay there again. It was very nice and cozy, close to family and grocery store. We had fun playing the games and watching movies in the evenings.

First family vacation

We stayed for four days in July. It is a lovely little cabin. The cabin is easy to find. Our toddler loves the bunk beds, and the table overlooking the river. The hostess is excellent.
