This is our second time stay here, enough space for our party of 22. Enjoy the big kitchen and multiple rooms. The living room sofa needs some serious upgrades as well as the game room.
This was our second year having our annual Family Reunion here because we were so impressed last year. The rental has plenty of room for kids to play, family to gather, kitchen to host entire family meals, private bedrooms with plenty of beds, and an overall perfect place for large groups. The location is convenient for daytime traveling to one of the nearby lakes for hanging out in the water or boat outings. We can't wait to stay here again. We appreciate the great communication with the owner and the ease of booking.
We absolutely enjoyed our stay! The lodge was spacious and accommodated our large group. The kids spent a lot of time together and enjoyed the game room. Kitchen was a plus with lots of refrigerators! Lots of great memories made cooking in the kitchen. It would be nice if contract could be sent sooner. We didn’t receive until the day before check in and some of us were already away from home and couldn’t prepare items that were on the list to bring. Communication was a bit slow, but was prompt on the day of check in and during our stay! :) Overall, this place was perfect for our large gathering! We definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a place for their next large group gathering!
Second time renting here, we came back we liked it so much! Great for big groups. Huge kitchen, great game room downstairs! Easy spot to stay, very relaxing.
We had a very unusual experience at this property when four members of our family were locked in one of the bedrooms for close to two hours late one evening. After the family closed their door for the night (not even locking it) their doorknob malfunctioned and a pin inside it locked in place, causing the door to be locked with no way in or out. When one of them tried to open the door around 11:30 p.m. to use the restroom, they discovered they were locked inside. No one in the household could get the doorknob off from either side or get the door opened. Finally around 12:30 a.m. we were forced to call a locksmith who arrived on the property around 1:30 a.m. We had to pay $258.75 for his service, which included not only getting the door open, but fixing the broken knob so that hopefully no future guests would have the same unfortunate experience. When we spoke with the owner the next day, he never once apologized for the situation or the inconvenience it caused to our family, but he did say to send the bill in an email. That was nearly a month ago. Three emails and a voice mail later and still no response or follow up to even dispute the charge and say they are unwilling to pay, so unfortunately it looks like this owner may be as undependable as the malfunctioning doorknobs on his property.
House is well suited for larger groups, professional kitchen is great, and game room downstairs also. Linen and towels were not included, and this was not disclosed in the listing at all when I made the booking. Received a PDF check in list from the property managers the day before departure that listed sleeping bags as a recommended item to bring, which was supposed to let us know that no linen or towels were provided. Makes you wonder what the cleaning fee covers if not laundry of linen. It was a good thing that one in our party owns a home in Arnold and was able to pick up towels, and we had enough sleeping gear for the rest of the group that we could bring. If there are no linen and towels provided, make that clear at booking, not when the non-refundable trip has been paid for in full.
This place was fantastic. It was easy to communicate with the hosts. We took our church youth group here and the kids had a blast. The game room downstairs is perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot.
We had 16 people in the lodge. There was plenty of room for everyone. Big kitchen, great game room. We crossed the street and played in the snow. Will definitely recommend this place.
My family and I got this place for Thanksgiving. It's spacious and beautiful! The kitchen was huge. 8 of us was in the kitchen at the same time prepping meals. And that's a big deal for us because we all love to eat. Also, the dining table. This was the first time we all eat together at the same table. Everyone absolutely love the play/ game room. The kids were never bored. The only thing I would suggest, is that pillows and towels are provided. Since this place is a bring your own bedding, providing pillows and towels will cut down on guests packaging. Besides that, we had a wonderful time and already planning to book again next year.
Our church small group of 23 had a wonderful time during our labor day long weekend. Kitchen is commercial grade, dining table is huge, perfect for our large group. Our kids enjoyed playing various games at the game room. The communication with the owners is open and prompt. And the check in checkout process is easy to follow. One suggestion to the owners is to provide plastic wrap and foil paper sheets. We will definitely refer your place to others.
