Spending the week in WI to see my daughter & grands, I wanted somewhere to relax and enjoy our time together. The house was perfect for what we wanted. The inside and outdoor areas were so comfortable and it just felt like a home away from home. Will definitely look into staying again in the future!

We were so happy to host Tammy and her grandchildren. The communication was great. They had followed the house rules, and had left the home SPOTLESS!! We are looking forward to hosting Tammy again when she would visit her grandchildren again.

We had a fantastic stay! The house was exactly what we needed for our Mother-Daughter weekend. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed, it was peaceful and quiet (minus the terrible storms overnight), and we were definitely able to relax and unwind. Our only complaint, if we had to have one, is the lack of blinds on the bigger windows (although there arent any neighbors nearby we still felt like we were in a fishbowl at night) and the paper blinds in the master bedroom were unusual. But, that wouldn't change my decision to stay here again! We'll certainly be back!

Nice property overall, but our checkout experience left us disappointed. We booked for our family of five, and due to an unexpected situation, friends joined us at the last minute. We remained within the home’s advertised maximum occupancy, with adults and four very young children. After we checked out, the hosts informed us they had reviewed their exterior security camera footage and charged us a 250 fee because the reservation hadn’t been updated to reflect the additional guests. While we understand the importance of following house rules, the fee felt excessive given that we stayed within the property’s stated occupancy limit. Our bedding was also brought from home and there was no additional work made for the hosts. Future guests should be aware that any change in guest count should be communicated immediately to avoid unexpected charges. We were also uncomfortable to learn after our stay that the hosts actively watch their exterior camera footage.

We did a family get together for Christmas and we couldn’t have asked for a better place! The home has a great layout and was very spacious. The kitchen had everything we needed to make a family dinner and there was plenty of parking. Ken and Sue were outstanding hosts. We got plenty of snow and Ken made sure that we were all plowed out. Couldn’t ask for a better place to stay while visiting family.

The house was very clean and rooms were spacious, including the bedrooms. Check-in process and check-out were clear and straight-forward. It's located in a private area with very big windows/sliding doors in the living room which we loved. Ken (the communicating host) was quick to respond and always kind. They even left a Christmas tree up and turned on for when we arrived which was a very welcoming touch. We didn't get to spend a lot of time at the house as we had events all weekend, but it was a great home-away-from-home for us and MUCH more relaxing than a hotel. Thank you!
