The host made it clear they were available to help with whatever we needed and we stayed in good communication. The house was great and had everything we could’ve needed!
Spent Thanksgiving and had a great time playing game in the game room and board games and cards at the big table. Kitchen worked great for cooking up a turkey dinner.
Thank you for staying with us! We enjoyed hosting you and appreciate your kind review. We look forward to the time when we can work again with you in the future. Safe travels.
We had a group of friends/family stay at your home! We had a wonderful time and had no issues with your property. It is very well stocked with kitchen supplies. Lots of beds and a great yard.
Easy access, nice location, comfortable and spacious with lots to do and the way it is laid out you have areas of privacy. Would rent again.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the comfortable layout, spacious feel, and convenient location. It’s great to hear the home offered both plenty to do and areas for privacy. We’d be happy to host you again anytime!
This cabin has plenty of room for multiple families and has a great bunk room for this kids. It is easily accessible and about 10 minutes from Tamarack resort. I would definitely stay again.
Seven of us stayed at your beautiful cabin for our annual Girl's Weekend. There was plenty of space for all and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay- we didn't want to leave!
Great snowboarding getaway with all our friends. The layout of this house was perfect for our group and we loved that we could get off the mountain and get back to the house and still have fun with all the garage amenities! Only took 10 minutes to get to the resort from the house!

Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad to hear the home’s layout and garage amenities made your snowboarding trip even better. It’s hard to beat being just 10 minutes from the mountain and having a comfortable space to relax and have fun afterward. We’d love to host your group again anytime!
Such a great place to stay. We have 5 boys and they had so much fun with all the games and the amount of space. Everything we needed was there to have a nice comfy stay. Checkin was incredibly easy and I was very pleased. I would definitely recommend this place.

Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re so glad to hear your family enjoyed the space and all the games—it’s great knowing the boys had a fun time. We’re happy the home had everything you needed for a comfortable stay and that check-in was smooth. We truly appreciate the recommendation and would love to host you again!
Had a great time. House was functional and they had a nice layout for both kids and adults. The garage was a great hangout area too. Rooms and bathrooms were clean, as was the kitchen items.
Overall good place to stay. Geared more for kids bed rooms. Could you a few less bunk beds up stairs and bigger bathroom and shower.

We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your stay overall. The upstairs layout is definitely designed with families and kids in mind, which is why there are multiple bunk beds. We appreciate your suggestion about the bathroom size and will keep that in mind as we look at future updates.
We went up with about 20 ladies ranging from ages 12 - 86 and stayed here for a church retreat. It was lovely! Clean and comfortable, with lots of nooks and crannies. It allowed us to gather in the main area and also have our own space as needed. Thank you for letting us stay!
This home was very clean upon arrival and had everything we needed to cook meals and be comfortable. The huge couch is super comfy! We also enjoyed the hot tub and the close proximity to Tamarack. The bonus room was a perfect hangout for our group of teen boys!
The property overall satisfied our needs for my family reunion. The pluses were great bunk room, set up for infants, and back deck and watered yard. The minuses were not all appliances were in working order and the property is beginning to show some age. The location was perfect for our activities and there were plenty of beds.

We're glad the home worked well for your family reunion and that you enjoyed the bunk room, yard, and convenient location. We appreciate your note about the appliances and general wear—those items are constantly being addressed, and we’re continuously making updates to keep the property in top shape. We’re happy the layout and setup met your family’s needs and hope to host you again in the future!
We all enjoyed our stay in Donnelly. We knew things wouldn't be open because of Covid but we made the best of it and a few of my family members said they want to move there after their experience there. LoL Thank you for the experience.

Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad to hear you and your family enjoyed your time in Donnelly, even with things being a little quieter due to Covid. It’s great to know the area made such an impression—maybe future neighbors! We appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to welcome you back again.
Clean, well stocked with enough kitchen stuff to make and eat meals. Enough beds for everyone! I was Grateful they had laundry pods. We Really appreciated a hot tub and being able to play pool, and table tennis.
We did walk daily around the neighborhood and the only terrible thing was one neighbor with awful dogs we were afraid would jump the fence and attack. The owner refused to take them inside, and instead got mad at us walking down the street.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear the home had everything your group needed and that you enjoyed the hot tub, games, and neighborhood walks. We’re sorry about your experience with the neighbor’s dogs a few houses down. That property is not affiliated with us, and unfortunately, it’s outside our control. For future guests, we recommend simply steering clear of that area while walking. We appreciate you staying with us!

Condition of home wasn't as advertised, exterior needs extensive work as does some of the interior, some doors didn't properly latch, shortage of hot water, 3 bunk beds were not made upon arrival, we were not allowed to get in on time as the cleaning was not finished.

While we're glad you enjoyed the space overall, we were surprised by the 3-star rating. Our team was working hard to prepare the home after a full booking schedule, which led to a brief check-in delay. Minor details like an unmade bunk or a door latch (since replaced) are addressed quickly if mentioned during a stay. We always welcome constructive input but also appreciate a fair sense of perspective.
The house was everything you could hope for in a wonderful mountain property for a large group of varying ages. Lots of recreational activities at the home. A second fridge in the garage and a fire ring we enjoyed nightly. Management company was very responsive to texts. Jacuzzi needed attention and they came right out and fixed it. There was only 1 thing we found that could be greatly improved upon. The beds were very uncomfortable . Overall a great property! Would stay again!

Kay- Thanks for the 5 ⭐️ rating of your stay at Lake Forest Lodge. I’m so glad you enjoyed your time at my cabin. I checked all the mattresses and am left to conclude that you simply misspelled “comfortable”, or autocorrect changed that, since they are all very nice. Again, thanks for staying and hope to have you back next time.
