Check in and check out were a breeze. Don answered my questions and checked to see if everything was OK. House and yard were very nice. Saw deer everyday. Played games. Went down and sat by the water while kids swam. Would for sure be a place to go back to

Everything was very clean and prepared for our visit. The lake side of the property was very nice with a bit of a sandy area for getting in the lake. The fire pits had some wood for fires and the gas grill was ready for grilling. We all had a great stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Don & Nicole’s home. It surpassed all other rentals we have stayed at in the Aberdeen area. The layout is perfect, it’s roomy & comfortable with spaces large enough for the whole group to be together, but also separate areas for the times when some want a quiet room and others have a little more energy.Our hosts were incredibly responsive to all our questions. Everyone agreed we must come back next year for pheasant season. Maybe we’ll get to use the firepit then.

Ample space, beautiful views and plenty of activities!

This place was absolutely perfect for our group! It comfortably sleeps 15 without feeling cramped. There was plenty of space to relax, hang out, and enjoy. Unlike other rentals we've stayed at that try to cram in extra beds, this home felt open and spacious even with a full group. We loved the outdoor setup with bag boards, bonfires, and room to just unwind. The hosts were incredibly kind, responsive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. I’d 1000% come back, highly recommend!

great experience for a large family. Used our own boat and stored on the dock. Even caught multiple pike and walleye from the dock. Great lake access for kids.
