This house and property has such a warm and welcoming energy. It was perfect for our group with generous and easy to navigate common areas and also peaceful and clean rooms. The outdoor spaces are incredible, so many places to have fires and the sauna was a wonderful experience as well. We had a lovely time and look forward to coming back.

We had the best time at this beautiful property! Nothing was too much trouble for our host Billy, and the house and the surrounding forests were restful and restorative! The large BBQ area overlooking the river was just picturesque, and the kids loved having a separate games room to play and chill out. Thanks so much for having us!

Beautiful property for our family Christmas. Only giving 4 stars because the oven only has one, very hot temperature (500 f.), so we ended up using the greasy air fryer.

This is an absolutely incredible place to stay. There's everything that you could need that makes this place feel like your home away from home. The property is absolutely immaculate, the games room is so much fun, the wood burning sauna was just what we needed, the covered area over looking the river is a perfect addition and every inch of this place feels like it holds a little bit of the earths magic. The house is very clean and well put together. Not to mention fuzzy blankets on all couches, chairs and beds, which is a must for me. The host is very helpful and extremely kind. I will be coming back.

Great home, loved the outdoor kitchen (despite the rain), and the sauna was an awesome touch. Would definitely come back in the summer to take full advantage of the property.

This was such a wonderful weekend, the house and property are gorgeous and we had everything we needed! So cozy, and we were so happy to find all the supplies on hand to keep the fireplace, sauna and fire pit burning! One bit of feedback - some lights along the path from the house down to the sauna and gazebo would have been great! But the flashlights in the house were very useful instead.

Amazing place

This property exceeded all of our expectations. It was absolutely beautiful, spacious, and really fancy, but it was so comfortable too. The architecture, the views, the amenities, the sauna, the games room, the furniture, how well stocked it was. It was all around just awesome. Billy was an incredible host, great communication and was very kind. We'll definitely come back. I highly recommend this rental!

Stunning getaway

Very impressive property with numerous amenities. Highlight for me the outdoor kitchen next to the stream .. (something I thought you only saw on cooking programs with Jamie Oliver) and sauna and games area. It is place where you shop for what you need and stay on the property for duration of the trip. I did go to Timmie’s in the morning and we went out once to a restaurant, it’s about 10 mins by car. Definitely a place I recommend and would consider visiting again.

Girls weekend in the woods

We had a fabulous weekend in the woods. Billy was the most attentive and communicative host I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. The kitchen was a dream and incredibly well stocked. The property is spacious and beautiful. Our only complaint is that our time was too short and we couldn’t make use of it all! We are hoping to come back.

Great place by the river

My partner and I visited with some friends for a nice weekend get away. The house and grounds are very nice, and even though it was quite snowy we were warm and comfortable in the house with the fireplace going.The view of the river and the gazebo are great, but it was a little too cold for that so we enjoyed the sauna instead.Billy is a great host, made sure to stock us up with firewood for the weekend, and was overall great to deal with.Everyone agreed we would go back again when it's warm enough to jump in the river before hitting the sauna.
