The Dahlin House was the perfect place for the ski team to stay and ski at GiantsRidge for the holiday camp. Nice large kitchen to prepare food for the group. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms.
We had a large group, wonderful that everyone has plenty of space and a bed, but good gathering areas and everything you need is there. Great place all around.
Clean and lots of bedrooms and baths. This is our 2nd time staying here and it is really great for a group with lots of hang out space and well located for the northern MN area.
The large gathering area and kitchen worked well for after skiing games and commraderie. Close to Giant's Ridge where our family likes to ski. Everyone had space to spread out.
We were a group of 16 adults. Great location for riding on the Mesabi bike trail and golfing at Giants Ridge. The house worked great for our group. The manager was very prompt with answering any questions that we had.
We were looking for a location close to Giant's Ridge that would fit our ski team, and this property fit the bill. Plenty of room/beds for a large group.
This VRBO property was the perfect place to bring our family of 16! Plenty of comfortable beds and baths, a generous kitchen, and a gathering space as pictured to share the ski experiences of the day! We hope to do it again next year!
Very pleasant owner. Helped us out of a pinch and very accommodating. Plenty of room and enough areas to not feel crowded one bit. We will be coming back to this place next year!
Veda was wonderful! She spent time helped us with information about the area, as well as understanding the layout of her property. Everyone in our group of 11 people were comfortable and enjoyed their stay.
Hoping to return soon.
Over all was good. We were in the area for an atv ride with family and were only in the house for sleeping. Our only disappointment was the air conditioning or lack there of as in the listing it said it was air conditioned and it only had a remote air conditioner on the second floor.

Our impressions
There were some issues. The first night, it was quite cold on the ground floor, and very warm in bedroom 5. There was no shampoo and some bathrooms had no outlets.There were quite a few flies in the house. Some of the coffee cups had cracks. There should be warnings about the steep stairs.
My friends and I rented this place for our weekend at Giants Ridge. It was a great place for us. Lots of space for everyone. The radiator is a little noisy at night but overall the place fit our needs. We are looking to make this an annual tradition.
We stayed at this location for the second time for a high school alpine ski training event at Giants Ridge. The location of the house is great and it offers a ton of space and various room configurations. The kitchen is fully furnished and worked great to have breakfast each morning and dinners in the evening. Veda was very responsive to my questions and met us at the house to ensure we were able to get in and provide a few extra supplies for the 3 days we stayed there. Great house, great location, great host. Would definitely stay here again.
