I can't say enough good things about this property or the hosts! The property was very convenient to all af the things we wanted to see while in the UP. We had an issue with one of our vehicles on the way up and our host Dave was outstanding in getting us the help we needed. Very quick response and so incredibly nice and helpful. The property was very clean and laid out so well. House was well appointed and more stocked than any other VRBO we have booked. Five stars all the way around! Don't pass on a chance to stay with them!

We had a lot of adventures planned so we weren't at the house much - but it was a nice house, plenty of room, and parking - close to town but far enough out that it was quiet and beautiful.

Great Snowmobiling Location

The property is ideally situated for snowmobiling enthusiasts, located approximately 300 yards from Trail #3 and only a 10-minute sled ride to South Range, where dining and beverage options are available. The owner was highly responsive to any needs that arose during our stay. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

Newly renovated

Very clean home. Newly renovated. Floors a little uneven in stops but nothing major. It would be a great place to stay for snowmobilers or skiers since there is plenty of room upon entering for all your gear. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone visiting the area.

Overall, the property met the listed features. It is a newer remodel, clean, and stocked well. The listing showed 11 individual beds as the bed icons, plus the photos showed one bedroom with 4 beds set up in it. The actual condition was that no bedroom had more than two beds in it. The property manager promptly worked with us to provide adequate sleeping arrangements for our group. I'd recommend confirming the number of beds that you need if considering renting it.

Great stay.

The property was great for parking. Large entry way to unpack. Space was great for all 10 adults plus spending rainy day with additional 2 adults and 7 kids. (19 total) to hang out for several hours and plays games. Had plenty of room on main floor for everyone to hang out. Slept 10 easily. Upstairs air conditioning was great. Host was very responsive. I would suggest a few more coffee mugs 😃. Again the host was great. We had an awesome time in the area and did a lot of great site seeing within hour drive.
