We had a nice stay. Property has nice lake views and access. It is close to shops, restaurants and parks. Our children are adults and needed to come and go due to work schedules. It was a quick 2 hour drive north and there was plenty of parking. The weather didn’t cooperate for the majority of our stay but we still had a great time. Thank you to Mitch & Ramona for the use of their cabin!

Great cabin on Serpent Lake with very responsive hosts. Location was beautiful with great views of the lake morning and night. Our kids enjoyed watching movies and playing games upstairs but spent way more time just playing outside or in the garage. The 2nd floor is very spacious with plenty of room for our large family. The 2 downstairs bedrooms were also very comfortable. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean and well equipped. The ping pong table and foosball table also provided hours of fun in the garage. We also enjoyed just sitting and visiting in the big garage. Other great activities included swimming, fishing, making a bonfire, and using the large propane grill. The cabin has a long driveway with ample parking and 2 turn-around extensions that made it easy to maneuver our big 12 passenger van even with our 2nd car parked in the driveway. Very close to Crosby, grocery store, and super easy access to get to the mountain bike trails. Will reserve this place again for sure!
