Great Cabin!!

Our family had a great time here! With 7 bedrooms, we loved that every couple could have their own space. The kitchen is large and we spent all weekend surrounding the island cooking and catching up. We had everything that we needed and loved all of the space. The hot tub was a great amenity to have. I would highly recommend and would definitely come back!

Great house

Our Grandfather has property down the street from this location and as our family has grown we have outgrown our family cabin. This place accommodated our family very nicely. The patio was great when we had a rainy day and have two refrigerators with two families makes a huge difference. We will be renting this place again for our family vacation next year

The property was very clean and bigger than the photo's appear. Plenty of room for all 9 adults and 4 small kids. Loved having two refrigerators! Owners are right next door if you need anything so easy to get a hold of. They did come over to check on us to make sure the air temp was comfortable. Would recommend for large groups.

Family Getaway

This property was available both inside and out! We loved being able to spend our time together in both the inside and outside as a full group in such an open space! It was nice as a parent that you could always have eyes on your little ones no matter where you were in the house or outside. The owners were super friendly, accommodating and you can tell they take great care of their property. They have everything you can imagine stocked for the bathrooms and kitchen! Overall a GREAT stay and we are already trying to coordinate for another family extended weekend next year!

8 Siblings Together!!

The Silver Cliff fit our needs perfectly!! We had enough beds and space to feel relaxed and welcome. My seven siblings plus spouses and I were able to easily gather, make meals and eat with ample space and accommodations. We loved sitting around the fire ring at night laughing and talking. Having two refrigerators really helped us with food and beverages. The fans and keeping the shades down really helped with keeping us comfortable temperature wise. Every inch was clean and tiny with ample space to feel at ease.

Perfect gathering space

This place exceeded our expectations. The space is perfect for large groups who want to connect but also have the opportunity to be quiet. The kids were able to go to bed early and the adults were able to gather around the fire and the outdoor table without disturbing anyone. the bedrooms are ample and well equipped with outlets and fans. The cel service in the area is spotty but the internet was good. There are several waterfalls nearby that we visited and were kid friendly. The property is gorgeous - we saw horses during the day and were able to hear wolves howling at night. The place is very clean and the kitchen is well stocked with pots/ pans and dishes. The owners are next door and stopped by to greet us and answered all of our questions quickly. I would highly recommend!

Spectacular location & beautiful property.

We have stayed in many VRBO properties and this is one of our favorites. There are so many rooms and beds in this property that everyone was able to spread out and feel extremely comfortable throughout our stay. We were a group of 11 that came to ATV the trails and go white water rafting in Niagara. The driveway is massive and can accomodate several vehicles and trailers. The trails are a short 5 minute ATV ride to a connecting trail. The trails here were AWESOME! Very little gravel. A lot of sand, but it was super wet when we were there, so we got plenty dirty riding. The white water rafting with Wildman was an adventure everyone should check off their bucket list. It was so fun. Enjoyed all aspects of our stay, to include the property. The property owners were great as well.

Cozy, large house but very strict owners.

We really loved the house and the backyard! Would love to be able to enjoy it more in warmer weather. This house is great for large groups, I imagine a family reunion/gathering would be fun here! The house felt even cozier than it appeared in pictures and was very clean. The only downside was that owners are extremely strict and a bit rude in their communication. There are pages and pages of over the top rules. For example, leave the blind open 3 inches. They also came peaking in the windows hours before checkout and called us multiple times to make sure we would be out on time which was not necessary.

Response from VrboOwner on 9 Jan 2023
Sydney, Thank you for the positive comments on the Retreat. I am sorry if you feel there was any miscommunication. I had sent you a message on the Jan 1st at 6pm through VRBO to confirm your checkout the next day and I did not receive a response from you. I can assure you no one was peaking in your windows. I only called you on your cell phone as you did not respond to the VRBO message and I did not see lights or activity at the house by 9am and needed a confirmation that you would be checking out on the agreed upon time for check out at 11am. Cell service is not always the best in the Northwoods, so I tried to call you a second time that morning and then you answered the phone. I was trying to be respectful of your stay and also coordinate a confirmation on check out. As to the list of rules, this is the same document that you read and agree to when you sign up to rent the Retreat. I only provide it on the counter so that it is readily available for guests if they have any questions and can reference the documents. As for the blinds, this is spelled out in the document to allow air flow inside the house to the windows to prevent condensation from building up and damaging the windows and frames.
