spring break trip

We took our oldest son and his family on a spring break trip. This location is centrally located between all the sights we wanted to visit. My grandkids 11 and 13 enjoyed the game room and the hot tub. We enjoyed being able to cook breakfast and dinner. This place had plenty of room and was nicely decorated.

Great experience

We were thrilled with this place! It was an amazing house with every amenity on our check list plus other luxuries to put it over the top. Lots of space and the detached game room was perfect for us to use with our 3 kids nightly! The hot tub was in great CLEAN shape. This will be a hard house for us to beat and we have stayed at many. We will be back!

Our Wedding Weekend!

We had a small intimate wedding at Sylvan Lake Labor Day weekend! We had our family stay at this cabin with us. We had plenty of space and the outdoor space was incredible! The place was very clean and lots of space inside as well with a fully equipped kitchen! Plenty of parking and a 2 stall garage as well! We hope to come back and stay again ! Beautiful master that had plenty of room for me to get ready on my special day ! Great communication with owners!

Custer Trip 2023

First time stay at this location and would come back TIME and TIME AGAIN!! Loved this property, loved the location and the HOME. It was perfect for us, our friends and family, as well as our own children. Traveling with a 3 yr old, (when you are 40, or anytime really, LOL), is never easy. But this home away from home, truly made it possible, to have FUN and RELAX. Thank you for such a special place. We will be back! -AB and Family

Good cabin with a nice set up. Rented this cabin because it had a hot tub with it, and the hot tub did not work. It obviously had not been checked or maintained. It was in lockdown mode the whole time. Luckily one of our people has a hot tub and knew how to handle it. Turns out it was very low on water that it threw into lockdown mode. After some maintenance by us we got it going. Very disappointed in that as we did not get to use it one of the nights we were planning on because of this. By the time we figured out to fill it up with water, reset it, and let it heat up, we lost the whole day time of it.I did love the set up of the rooms on each side and the coziness and options outside. The shower door in the upstairs bedroom needs some mechanical work as a door did not shut properly.Three of the beds had hard mattresses and not as cozy. The one bedroom had a memory foam mattress, which was wonderful. I would recommend updating the mattresses all of that.All in all great property, just need some upkeep and maintenance on it so it is exactly what you are advertising.

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the cabin’s layout, coziness, and outdoor options. We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience with the hot tub and understand how disappointing that must have been, especially since it was a key reason for your stay. We want to note that had we been contacted right away, we could have assisted immediately to help resolve the issue sooner. That said, we appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and we’ve since addressed the hot tub maintenance to help prevent this in the future. Thank you as well for pointing out the shower door and mattress feedback. These items have been noted and are being reviewed as part of our ongoing upkeep and improvement efforts. We appreciate your honest input—it helps us ensure the property continues to meet guest expectations. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again after these updates are completed.

House tucked in the woods

The house was spacious, plenty of king beds and baths. Love the deck and hot tub. The kitchen had plenty of dishes and silverware. Lack some pots and pans. Only had one dish rag and one towel in the kitchen. Pretty inconvenient for 8 people. The washer and dryer are in a bedroom closet, which meant that bedroom didn’t have any place for luggage or clothes.The first night we discovered mice, after they had eaten a granola bar which was in a bedroom and then some food on the kitchen counter. Luckily we had brought totes, which we put all our food in after that.I gave this a 3 star for cleanliness because the sleeper sofa in the family/bar room was filthy and mice infested.Luckily my grandson didn’t come because that is where he would have slept.I believe a GOOD house cleaner would have seen the mice droppings on the sofa, and maybe the property manager would have done something about it. The first night there we discovered mice in the house.

No AC in upstairs bedroom setup. The room was 90F and four people were sleeping in it. Two people spent 1.5 hours finding an AC in the garage and installing it. The exhaust wasn’t hooked up and I had to do that. Additionally, the AC in the game room didn’t work. The breaker was tripped and the exhaust for the AC was not installed. I fixed all of that too. The host was unhelpful. For this amount of money, things should be set up, operational, and the host should be helpful. Failed on all ends and did not meet my expectations.

Wonderful spot!!

The location of this property is perfect! A quiet, peaceful place close to everything. Never heard a peep out of the neighbors. Very private, lovely spot. The home is very clean. Nice new clean linens, and everything you possibly need for a wonderful stay. Many special extras like gourmet coffee beans, fine wine, heavenly-smelling soaps, luxurious towels…..the hot tub was wonderful. The kids loved the game room. The beds are comfortable. We can’t wait to go back!
