Great experience

House was just as described and more. It had everything we needed. We appreciate that it is dog friendly. We had a great week taking the dogs for walks, watching the snow fall, and seeing all the deer and swans. Would definitely go back.

Beautiful home and a relaxing stay!

We spent most of our time just going for walks with our dog and making fires in the firepit. It was a very welcomed and needed rest for us. The home was a beautiful place to stay and the snacks were a very appreciated surprise.

Perfect Place

We were there for a weekend for the races at BIR. Perfect size location for my wife, myself and a family friend. The location is outstanding! Grilling and hanging out in the backyard after the races was a perfect place to relax!

Great location to relax, but close to areas for "play time" as well. Bring your bicycle - Plenty of trails to enjoy! Stayed for 4 four nights... Next time we'll plan to stay a little longer to enjoy our bikes more.

Beautiful Property

The property is tucked away into a beautiful little oasis of forest. Very private and quiet. We enjoyed walking around and cozying up to the wood stove inside. Very clean and well equipped. Property manger was very responsive to any concerns we had. Great stay.

Nice cabin but the well water was bad

The cabin & furniture was very nice & comfortable. It’s a beautiful place. However the well water had a very strong smell making it impossible to shower or drink.

Tranquility

Beautiful home in the Mississippi wilderness. Tranquility and relaxation amongst the birch, oak and evergreen trees! The interior is impeccable, well decorated and every seat has a view of nature. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to doing so again soon. Thank you for sharing your amazing place.

Beautiful property

Beautiful property! Extremely nice house with impeccable cleanliness! Nearly everything supplied accept for food and drinks. Large back yard for our dog to run.
