    Our family had such an enjoyable time at Kevin’s cabin this new years. We had 6 adults, two teen/college age and toddler in our group so the house was a great fit for us with plenty of room for shared meals, family games and hanging out catching up. There was an extensive collection of games and books for us to enjoy as well as the ping pong, fusball and piano downstairs. It was a chilly and snowy visit, so we built a snowman and went xc skiing at Lake Superiors trails. We enjoyed walks around the lake, the Forest Reserve trails and our pup loved the dog park. We also loved the Bethel Woodstock museum. Kevin was a very attentive, informative and kind host from the get go. He was always quick with a reply or offering in advance info to make our stay great. He sent over area guides and shared activities listings with us.

    Our family has made it our Christmas tradition staying at Kevin’s place and it never disappoints. Kevin is always accommodating and prompt to respond. The place is always in great condition when we arrive and always feels like home when we stay. Thank you Kevin!

    The cabin is beautiful, clean and comfortable. A space for all 8 of us! Everything we needed was there. The days we spent there were a perfect mix of fun and relaxation. So much beauty to take in. We will be back!

    This was the first time I rented a place from VRBO. It was fabulous. The house couldn’t have had anything else. I was so delighted. I was able to take my two dogs with me too. It’s hard to find a place that allows fur people. If I have a reason to go back to Smallwood, I would definitely book it again. Thanks, Kevin.

    Our stay at this winter home was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with breathtaking snowy views and a warm, inviting atmosphere inside. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The fireplace made for the perfect cozy nights, and the large windows offered stunning views of the winter landscape. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The location was ideal, with easy access to winter activities and indoor waterpark. The hosts were friendly, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed.If you’re looking for a peaceful and charming winter escape, this rental is perfect. We can’t wait to come back next year!Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy and unforgettable winter getaway.

    For the last several years, Kevin’s home has been a place where my family celebrates Christmas and this year was just as special as the others. It’s so nice to have a home away from home to celebrate. It’s spacious, clean, has a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bedrooms for my extended family, and has plenty of things to do for the little kids. We also traveled with our little dog, and the well lit exterior made taking the dog out at night very easy. Kevin is also very responsive to my questions. The conveniences of the space have families in mind and are well thought out. Thanks again Kevin!

    Decided on this location as there were no nice hotels near our jobsite. Really enjoyed the privacy and being surrounded by nature. Had two deer visit us during our stay. Beds are super comfortable.

    The property was perfect and as described. What an amazing experience it was for our Siberian husky Luna. Looking at or being near, the lake is very cathartic, and all that we had hoped for. Inside there’s not a single amenity missing or anything you could possibly need. The host was easy to communicate with very kind and open. Very easy to work with Kevin and I will be in touch with him soon to book my next vacation!!

    This day was very nice. The house was perect for a family of 6 The area was beautiful. Plenty of space to sit together or spread out. Inside or outside. Very quiet location. Everything was clean and well stocked. The only thing to take note of is there is only air conditioning in one bedroom. The rest of the house does not have AC and we had to look for fans. The whole house exhaust fan worked okay to take the edge off. You also need to cross a very small country road to get to the lake. It is not attached to the actual property. Not much room for sitting there as a group. We had a wonderful day in spite of that. Thanks so much! We would return
