We had a wonderful experience staying in this beautiful home. First off, the host was great at communicating with all details that were needed. The home was in a great location if wanting to ski or visit the lake. Home was very clean and nice. Beds were very comfortable with nice bedding. Kitchen was stocked with most essentials needed. I would stay at this home again!

Fantastic

Overall our stay was wonderful! We had children ranging from 2-5 and found the home to be well suited for their needs! It was close to town and was overall great.

Great cabin!

The cabin was very clean and it was really nice to have the 5 bedrooms. Kitchen was great-lots of counter space to make meals. Loved the pool table. The owner was always very responsive if we had questions.

Family vacation.

Our stay at the Zen House was fantastic. With five bedrooms it was perfect for our family of six and our two dogs. The house truly felt like home. The hot tub was great, and the location couldn't have been better. Everything we needed was provided, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. highly recommend it!

The host was great, very nice and super at communication. The cabin was really nice and clean. My biggest issues were downstairs it smelled so badly of dog urine and there was no restroom down there. I have a sensitive nose and couldn’t sleep down there after one night. You could tell a dog had been closed up in that area as there a dog scratches behind all of the doors downstairs. I don’t know if the listing pointed out that there is no restroom downstairs or not but there is not one. If you’re sleeping down there, you have to go upstairs in the middle of the night to use the potty. Upstairs the couch was super uncomfortable. The only couch that was comfortable was downstairs where it stunk so bad of dog pee. Also the master bed mattress cover was disgusting when we pulled the sheets off the bed at checkout. It was burnt, dark yellow and gross.

Hello thank you for your review. When we checked in on you the morning after your arrival you asked for additional towels which were delivered. If there were issues with anything else we would have had these addressed immediately but I was not made aware of them. This is a pet friendly house. There are scratch marks from previous stays. And yes I make it clear in the listing that the bathrooms are upstairs.

Our group had an amazing experience at the house. It started with great communication from the host. Check in and out process was smooth. The house was as stated in listing and has everything you need in the kitchen! Very spacious and great location. Convienently located close to the village, lake, slide park and bowling. Great place for families. Would highly recommend staying at this house!
