Not a professional rental experience
Pros: - Lake and location are great; quiet, beautiful, and serene location Cons: - The house and amenities need some maintenance and updating. Kitchen is very outdated and missing some basic supplies, decking has several areas that need to be replaced, safety railing is loose. - Communication with owner was terrible. We never received welcome email and there was no response to multiple inquiries. We only heard a response after we informed the owner of a water leak in the basement. To this information, the owner accused us of overflowing the toilet or bath and informed me I should have alerted them sooner (through a phone contact we were never given). Even after a contractor came and confirmed it was a leak in their plumbing system and repaired it, we did not get an apology for their accusation/unkind response. - Layout of the house is unique. The master is loft. The kids bunk area is in basement with no railing for large portion of the stairway. I would not feel comfortable with young children using that area. - There were almost zero amenities (no shampoo/conditioner/laundry soap). We even bought hand soap for bathrooms. Bring your own everything.

Beautiful Lake Front Cabin
The stay was great. We had all the amenities required to support our family during our time at Ski Brule. I would highly recommend this location. I imagine during the summer months this would be a great get away as well. The only complaint I have is that the GPS pin in the app doesn't coincide with the actual address of the cabin, so I did have to call and confirm the address, so other than that it was wonderful.

Beautiful cabin by the lake
The cabin was beautiful with plenty of room for our group. The access to kayaks, peddelboat and paddle board was fantastic. The lake was the perfect depth for younger kids to play in. We heard and saw plenty of wildlife during our stay, which was fun! Clean house and well stocked kitchen.

Fun location for ski trip!
A big thank you to Jason B, Trust & Safty Advisor at Evolve for your help at check-in. It was a travel day for the property manager and there were signs tacked up on the walls around the rental unit. My suggestion to the property manager is to have all the instructions in one centralized location. When traveling it would be nice to have someone locally to contact with any problems. Also extremely icy this time of year. One person in our party couldn't even get down the road to the property. We had to drive to the end of the road to bring them in. Thank goodness we brought ice melt to sprinkle on the steps and driveway. Now on to what was great about this property! It was a really nice kitchen, well equipped for foodies like our group. My husband is a chef and we do all our cooking at home. Beds were comfortable & plenty of towels for our group. The children loved the downstairs area with their own TV, ping pong table, ect cetera. The dining room table was perfect for playing games at night and there were even games available to us in one of the bedroom closets. Everything was very clean! Lots of room to spread out and comfortable sitting areas just to relax and read a book. My family would like to come back in the summer time to enjoy the beautiful lake out front. We would definitely come back to this property again.

Fun time
We had a great time. The house was beautiful and the weather was nice. I felt there was an issue with the refrigerator and had a hard time getting a hold of the contact. I did end up getting a call from the owner later on that evening so it was addressed and taken care of. I also agree with a review I read about the loft bedroom. It would be nice to have a curtain to pull in the morning. I Love the sunrise but not that early. Overall it was a great stay.

Nice Stay w/ Some Helpful Hints
Overall the house is nice, clean and offers a ton of home amenities. It is not what I would call secluded. It’s about 5 miles down a rustic road but a neighbor is a stones throw away and the next lot is a mini campground. We were there the week before Memorial so not a lot of traffic. They state a dock is available, it would be helpful if the months it’s available was listed as there was none for us to use. The owner also stated there wouldn’t be room for our boat, my husband and I walked it in, seemed if there was room for 6 cars and dumpster services that a boat would fit. It did, thankfully. The king room is actually a loft. Minimal privacy and a shower about the size of a camper shower unit. If you are person that gets up with the sun, this is the room for you! But if you would like to sleep past 5:30 am you may want to bring eye pillow with you. Shelves above the toilet would be helpful to store towels. In our 5 day stay, 2 of them had servicemen accessing the unit. The surround music is nice, the neighbors are comical, the house is clean, in summer months it’s probably great with lake access.

Great spot!
Lovely home for a family to enjoy the 4 seasons of the UP. We stayed in February and enjoyed all that the winter had to offer - spending lazy mornings in the very comfortable home, afternoons skiing a Brule Mountain less than 30 minutes away. Kitchen very well appointed, home was clean and very comfortable. We loved the good selection of board games, ping pong table is great although net needs a little TLC and new ping pong balls. Would certainly recommend and would love to come in the summer/fall months when access to lake is still an option.

The Best!
Beautiful and clean property and location! Peaceful. Serene. We could hear the loons all day long! Bald Eagles! Crystal clear water! Who needs a "dark sky park"? You can see the Milky Way and a gazillion stars from here! And who knew there were so many satellites zipping around up there! The management company, Evolve, was not helpful at all. Something about "due to Covid-19" they only respond to renters within 72 hours of the start of their stay. This is not helpful when it's a 2 day drive to the property. In the future I will avoid renting a property managed by Evolve.

Nice house, beautiful lake ! Nestled way back in woods , neighbors on each side but trees provide privacy. Very few homes on the lake so very quiet. Saw a few ants appear in the kitchen I had to kill but when way back in the woods I’m guessing makes it harder to always keep them out. Not a lot, just a few . Not sure if have home sprayed each month but may help if don’t. House was clean & very nice.

The cabin was lovely. It had a great layout and felt homey. We initially did not realize that the master was a loft with little privacy but it still provided nice accommodations and a wonderful view! It would have been nice to have someone plow the driveway due to all the snow that accumulated while we were there. There were a few minor issues with the water shutting off often and not much living room seating. Overall our stay was enjoyable.
