Great place!

Great place, great location and very clean. Definitely would stay again! The house was perfect for us and was a great stay for a ski weekend. I will say we felt a little unsure getting nothing from the host the night before, but right at 4 (check in time) we got a text with all the info, and all was well.

Perfect for our needs!

We came to Wakefield for the hydroplane boat races and this house was prefect for our stay: a large kitchen, air conditioning, and close to the lake and town. We appreciated the many thoughtful touches that have been added to make stays pleasant.

Great location

House is very clean and comfortable. Location was perfect for us to get together with family. Also centrally located to Bond Falls, Porcupine Mountains. Many local waterfalls nearby (Potawatomi, Rainbow, Gabbro etc). Black River Harbor is nearby too. We also enjoyed having a bar/restaurant within a close walking distance (best pizza ever!!)
