Group SXS Excursion!!

If anyone is looking to do a group side by side run from Trout Lake, this is the place to stay! This house has it all for the large group get together! The home has an open floor plan which works out great for everyone to be able to hang together. We were a group of 18 with room for all!! The parking area was large enough for all eight of our truck and trailers with room to spare. There was plenty of back yard space around the fire pit. The home was very clean and everything listed in the home description was provided and clean!! Ok - I also have to say that the beds were super comfortable! The location is perfect for the outdoor adventurers. If we do another run out of Trout Lake, we will be staying here! Thank you to the owners for the great place!!

Terrific Property and Host

Kerryann is a terrific host. She was very available to answer questions about the house and the area in advance of our stay, and that was VERY helpful. The house was neat and clean and well-equipped with dishes and silverware for 18! This house can handle a lot of people with a huge kitchen island that seats 9 in addition to the 9 that can be seated at the kitchen table. I would add that the home is in a private area and across from the private road is a large sandy area that looks perfect for a volleyball game. We used it to set up our cornole boards and horseshoes equipment. I'd also add that air conditioning was a must for us, but not a lot of homes in the Upper Peninsula necessarily have A/C. The A/C worked very well. All in all, this was a terrific rental experience for us.

Wilcox Family Vacation 2023

Very clean and neat, plenty of room for us with 9 adults and 7 kids ranging from 3 - 14 years old. Beds were good. A/C worked great. Kitchen was fully supplied as far as dishes and utensils. So many towels, it was luxurious. We all liked the bathroom set up with 3 sinks outside the toilet/bathtub rooms. 2 big water heaters meant plenty of hot water. Furniture was comfy and inviting. Back patio was great for sitting around the fire pit (bring your own chairs!). The kids loved roaming the place and playing in the sand outside. We have NOTHING but GOOD to say about this place and about Kerry, the host. It was simpy wonderful.

UP Greatest Hits Tour

Our kids wanted a cabin to revisit many of the sights we frequented when we used to visit the UP when they were younger. This cabin was perfect for that, and we were within 30-45 minutes of each site on our tour. We were pleasantly surprised that the cabin is much roomier than appears in the pictures, and our 9 adults had plenty of room! Our host, Kerry, responded quickly to our questions, and check-in/check-out were super easy. We will consider this property again when the UP comes back on our travel list.

Perfect Location

The home is excellent for a group or pair of families vacationing together. Close to town if you need a quick gas or grocery run. Biggest convenience for our group is the trailhead crosses the driveway, easy access to traveling North or South out of Trout Lake!

Family vacation

Nice house, plenty of room for our families (9 adults & 3 kids). Location was great, half hour to just under an hour to places we visited. The Buckhorn was just down the road for a quick bite to eat. Outdoors was secluded with a firepit out back. Only complaint is the sign for the house is kind of hidden so we had to turn around because we passed it on our way to the house. Otherwise we had a great time!

Great UP Getaway

My family was looking for a house that would fit our large group while being centralized for seeing all that the UP offers. This lodge was perfect for this. It's within an hour driving distance to all the eastern UP attractions and was roomy enough for all 17 of us! The house was as listed. The bathroom setup was great for the amount of people we had and lots of seating, inside and out. House was clean and the linens smelled fresh. Would definitely stay here again.
