Large Home Plenty of space
We had stayed her over 13 years ago and the host was amazing then and now! However, the house not so much. The house was incredibly dirty, Dirty laundry inside the house, dust everywhere, and the house it sell was in desperate need of some TLC. Very large house and great for entertaining large gatherings but I think it is time for a uplift.

It was exactly as I expected; lodge that was large enough for big group, nothing fancy so it felt like we were in the mountains at a place drifters can come through and use and try to leave it better than they found it! Owner is super nice and definitely wants your stay to be enjoyable. Our only downer was that half the lodge was freezing cold due to heater breaking the week before we got there. We made it work but could have have used the extra space. Definitely intend on visiting there again in a warmer time and recommend to large parties for sure.

Beautiful property. So much space to spread out and common places to come together. This is our families 3rd time at this property, and each time holds special memories. Jim is a very gracious host.

Unique and remote property
We had a wonderful time staying at the house. There was plenty of space for everyone and a great VHS collection. I would recommend this property to anyone doing a retreat weekend or multi family get away.

Very pleasant stay in a large, rustic and eclectic cabin house
We chose this rental place because the house has lots of bedrooms, a large dining table, and could accommodate our 15-person group. The place is very remote and has lots of charms, with its lake/pond, large kitchen, rec room, gym room, and of course its garages with 10+ antique cars. We struggled a bit initially with the lack of wifi and some plumbing issues, which both got repaired on the second day. Do not expect perfection or you'll be disappointed, it's an older and very large place and the owner does his best to maintain things. Despite those minor issues, we had an excellent time in this house and would stay at the same place if the opportunity comes again.

As Much Potential as there is Disappointment
The property is gorgeous, nestled in serene forest where you wake up to soft sunlight and bird calls in the morning. It makes it all the more disappointing that the opportunity of this place is utterly squandered. The entire cabin is clearly run down - sagging floor boards, deeply stained carpets, standing water in the stairwell, debris in the tubs, minimal water pressure, lights that just don't work, cable boxes that don't work, plug sockets that are loose and don't hold a plug, doors that were bent off hinges, a broken hot tub and a strange lack of basic accommodation. There was no shampoo in the showers, no towels except garage towels in the laundry room, and no help in sight. There was **no internet** in the house the entire trip. We walked a 1/4 mile to the main road to get service to ask for help and the property manager didn't respond to messages at all over those three days. We had no check-in procedure, we had no keys given to lock the place when we left, and no check-out instructions to ensure we wouldn't be charged for messes. Would I recommend this place to anyone? Absolutely not. At least not before a significant renovation and change in ownership.

Spacious, clean, and comfortable.
Me and a large group rented the Lodge for a weekend retreat and we look forward to returning. The property comfortably fit around 50 people but could have fit even more. The large number of beds, pull out couches, and bathrooms offered a leisurely experience for everyone. We especially loved to spend time in the front yard however, where there was a beautiful open grass area plus a large pond with a boat. On top of everything, the showroom of cars was amazing for taking pictures and observation. I could not have found a better place for a large group weekend getaway, would 100% recommend!
