Another amazing trip! This was our second time staying in winter. The house has a fully stocked kitchen, plenty of linens, is warm and welcoming and tastefully decorated. We spent the mornings sledding behind the house and the afternoons at the lake. Highly recommend. Ellen was very responsive when my brother had questions about the hot tub, and was flexible with checkout. Thank you!
Sled hill behind house. Chair lift swing was great!

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The proximity to restaurants and 7-11 was great. The layout of the cabin allowed everyone to interact in the downstairs and have their own space upstairs. Overall, this is a great place to stay!

Amazing location and property!

We couldn't have asked for more! The house was completely stocked with everything you could possibly need. The space was plenty for the 10 of us, with an amazing back deck and open space. The location can't be beat - walking distance to the lake, coffee shop and of course Gar Woods. Without a doubt, I recommend this property and will absolutely plan to stay here again! Thank you!!
