Winter Family Vacation

This was perfect. It was quite & away from everything but a short drive to town. We all enjoyed the sledding, snowball fight and just walking around in the snow. We saw a moose and tracks of other wildlife. The house was clean and well stocked. We look forward to making another family vacation here.

Quad trip

The house is great. We had a good time on the area trails. The mosquitoes make the deck unusable after 5 Just a couple small maintenance items like the main floor tub drains slow and the water pressure gets weak during busy times
