We’ve stayed in this house before and knew it would be perfect for a Snow Mobiling weekend with 3 other couples. What stands out about the house is that every little thing is thought of. The kitchen is fully stocked- crock pot, blender, Keurig, etc. The beds are so comfortable, the garage for the snow mobiles is soooo great, the game room is fun for everyone, the large kitchen table is appreciated for dinners and games, and the view is spectacular. We just love being there. Jd was so thoughtful to send us a map of the groomed routes each morning and it was just nice of him to send us a text to check in with us to let us know if we needed anything, he could help.

This is a comfortable and very functional home with great views. Perfect for a larger group of people. We rented for Thanksgiving and to hunt. The kitchen worked well for a big dinner, we were all able to watch football, and the snowmobile garage was handy for hunting prep.

This property is one of the best we’ve stayed at! Not only is the view amazing but what a great l layout for a group. The vanity setups in the bedrooms were a brilliant idea! Many properties don’t think of those details help the flow of larger group getting ready for the day. We will definitely look for availability of this property when we are back in the area!

JD is an amazing host; right when we arrived, we noticed a problem with our trailer and JD got back to us within minutes with a recommendation of who could help fix the problem locally. The house is amazing with every amenity you could possibly want. the beds are more comfortable than any 5-star hotel that we've ever stayed at. The drive in and drive our garage is amazing after a long day on the trails you just pull in, and everything melts off and stays warm and plenty of hooks to hang your gear. The view of Lake Superior is just breath taking from almost every room in the house and all of the furnishing are first class. After a long day of sledding we relaxed in the beautiful living room and then took full advantage of the awesome game room.

WOW! A Perfect Family Getaway.

Our family had an amazing vacation at this property! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. The location was ideal—peaceful, with breath taking views, yet close to downtown Grand Marias, MI. JD was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making our stay smooth and stress-free. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable family retreat.

We absolutely love The Ridge! We had a fantastic time as a family. The game room was the perfect end to our day, as well as the campfire & making s'mores. The house is beautiful and spacious. Everyone had their own room and the beds are so comfortable. Our family created wonderful memories. We plan to return! Thank you JD!
