The place is acceptable and listed as is. Nothing has changed in two years of our last visit. Coffee pot was leaking water so I replaced it with a new one. Definitely could use better pans and cooking utensils. Thank you. Was happy with our stay.

We're glad you were happy with your stay and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Thank you also for swapping out the leaking coffee pot, we're grateful for that and will be sure to keep a backup on hand in the closet going forward. We've also heard the note on pans and cooking utensils and have already purchased new pots and pans for the house, which we'll be bringing up on our next visit. We want every stay here to feel comfortable and well equipped, and we're glad the location and value stood out to you.

Had to rewash dishes when we arrived ,we also cleaned the shelves in the fridgerator. Make sure to bring your own cooking pans and even a griddle as they are rough and scratched teflon pans.Other than that the home was great ,maybe some ac for your summer months.I would rent this home again , very spacious and quiet. It was relaxing .

Quiet getaway

Had a lovely time at this property. It was clean and quiet. It's next to a nature preserve so it was quite serene. Perfect spot to relax and disconnect from everything.

Spacious home in beautiful country setting

We had a very nice time staying at this home in Germfask. The Jolly is a great place for breakfast as well as dinner with the bar and extremely friendly staff just up the street. We would love to come and try this area/home again during the summer!

Property and house as posted. Disappointed grass was too long for first 2 days which was not fun when walking our dog out in the long grass. Made for a much buggier experience. Got mowed on 3 rd day. I expect bugs, however wasps hovered around door and of course got inside. Had to kill a lot of wasps. Couldn’t enjoy the deck because of a wasps nest. Place was nice overall but kitchen could use a good cleaning along with pans and such. A lot of grease on some pans that weren’t cleaned well. Last I will also say this is the first time I’ve ever checked into a Vrbo home and hosts didn’t check in to see if we made it inside and everything ok. All else was ok

Worth it

Quiet, clean and chic property. You have all you need for a pleasant stay. Close with 30-45 minutes drive to outdoor attractions. Great value for the price. For the area bring your bug spray during the summer

Nice place

Overall great place. Very easy check in and everything in the house was as advertised. It has a circular driveway with plenty of space for a trailer or multiple vehicles. The only problem was the sidewalk wasn’t shoveled when we got there.

Touring the UP

It was a great location for all the things we wanted to see in the U.P. The house was accurately described and fit the 6 of us well. There was quite a bit of pet hair in the house and the sheets didn't fit properly on one of the beds, so they kept coming off in the night. Hopefully they can get ones with deeper pockets and do a more thorough job cleaning.
