We enjoyed staying at this property. It was well furnished and nicely equipped. Communication with the owner was easy and excellent. There were a few minor maintenance issues (a living room chair was a bit wobbly, a stove burner indicator was burnt out, a couple of the pans were a bit warped) but nothing that negatively impacted our stay. The place was very spacious yet cozy and we would definitely stay here again. The adjacent ski area (Giants Ridge) was very nice, and despite most Midwest resorts not having any snow, they did have enough made/maintained to be open with enough runs to keep everyone happy. I'd love to visit again when the hill is fully open!
Property was easy access to golf courses which we were playing every day of our stay. We cooked meals each night and ate together and villa was well appointed for this. Enjoyed our stay and would come again. Negatives are that there was no gas bar b Q and dishwasher did a poor job.
Stayed during a golf trip. great location, clean, seamless communication and check-in. Hughly recommend
Very comfortable accommodations for multi- generational family of 7. We would visit again!
We had 8 guests staying comfortably in this villa for three nights and tons of golf. Centrally located to both courses was perfect. Would recommend and will look into this in the future for return visits.
This property was perfect for our two families. Close to everything. Had all necessary amenities. Great stay!
We were a group of 16 women who rented this villa and one other owned by the same property manager. The villas worked out great for us. They were clean and exactly as described on the rental listing. I would definitely book this rental property again.
We enjoyed the lakefront location and setup of the bedrooms giving our family group plenty of space
Very nice, well appointed. Nice deck.
Perfect for two families of four to enjoy a weekend at Giants Ridge.
Fantastic location and space!
This is a great listing…well appointed and very clean, with nicely updated finishes. We really appreciated the ease of check in, and the welcome basket was a lovely surprise! We highly recommend this property.
We were there to connect with family on the range. It was a perfect place to gather.
My family and friends loved staying at Abby's properties and she was SO easy to work with!
Great place. Very comfortable, well appointed . Abby was great, nice to work with. Wife and I needed more clothes hangers. So adjusted overall rating, 4.9999999999 :) We will be back for sure, as we have many family gatherings at Giant's Ridge
Great location in the middle of top-end golf. Great floorplan layout. Everything worked. Beach area was fun. Super communications with the owner. Thanks for a good stay.
This property worked extremely well for our group of 4 60+ aged men. We had what we needed. I would recommend cleaning the outdoor grill.
We had two families staying in the Villa, including 3 elementary aged boys, 2 teen girls, and 4 adults. Everyone was able to find something fun to do! We went to the pool several times. The kids enjoyed playing on the Maui mat and floating dock. We rented canoes and kayaks to explore the lake. I love the updates done to the Villa! It was very tastefully done. The main floor was the perfect gathering space for meals. The basement was great for after the kids went to bed so the adults could play board games / cards. The host was very responsive and answered our questions promptly. We would definitely stay again!
Owner was quick to respond and very accommodating. Our family had a great time. So many activities. Something for everyone.
Having grown up in nearby Eveleth in the 60's and 70's but relocating in 1975, I was amazed at what the Giants Ridge vacation area had grown into over the years. The golf courses were superb and the beauty of the area is stunning. The Villas were very comfortable, convenient, and well equipped. We had a great time.
Our property was in a great location and had everything we needed for our annual guys golf trip. We will look into renting this property again for next year!
