Great place for multi family groups!

We were a multi family group with a slew of kids and the house was great for us! The bedroom set up let us get kids to bed and not wake them when adults stayed up in the evening. Super cool property and it felt really private. Everything was really clean, including a sparkling hot tub . The location was great for access to winter activities- ice rink down the street, trails, and ski resort. Would definitely stay again!

Family reunion

This house was great for our large, multi-aged family reunion. Lots of space to spread out and to enjoy time together. The indoor shuffle board table was a great hit in the evening. The spacious pool was great. Communication with the owner was excellent. We hope to book this home again.

Beautiful house!

Our stay was a family gathering for our 80 year old mom. Everyone (16) was able to fit comfortably, and we had the best time. Even though the weather wasn't great, we were able to play pool, shuffleboard, cards, etc, and went in the hot tub. I would definitely recommend this place. Just amazing! Thank you Alex! We hope to rent again from you! Julie

This home is beyond immaculate. The host goes above and beyond to accommodate just about everything minus food and clothes between the heated pool and the hot tub and the unlimited amount of spots to sleep in the three living rooms and two kitchens plus the kitchen out in the pool house, this place should be everybody’s first go to pick Or any special occasion.

Yearly multi generation trip

This house is centrally located to lakes and next door to a golf course. We spent many days enjoying the pool after a round of golf or hiking.The owner has puchased all new outdoor furniture and there is a nice gazebo poolside for shade. The owner is extremely responsive. I immediately advised him of a few things missing and he took care of it. The other thing that was nice: they stock the house with paper towels, toilet paper, shampoos, soaps, laundry detg. Kitchen cupboards had salt, pepper, sugar, oil. That saves a lot. So many indoor and outdoor games. I loved the grassy outdoor area for baseball with my grandson. Bedding is important to our family. All bedrooms had comfortable mattresses! No sagging beds or poking coils! Our family loved the open concept and comfortable livingroom furniture. The owner Alex is very responsive to
