We had never stayed at a VRBO. This by far exceeded our expectations. This cozy house in a quiet neighborhood couldn’t have been a better experience. This house is so clean and comfortable. It has absolutely everything we needed. We could definitely stay here for a long time and be very content. The service was great also. We had an issue with the dishwasher and our maintenance man responded right away and was there the next morning. He was very friendly and helpful. I could go on and on how great this property is and how well you’ll be taken care of. We loved the quiet, rural neighborhood. It was exactly what we were looking for. The hot tub was definitely the icing on the cake each evening. We will definitely be back here in the future!

Great for families
Property was in a very peaceful setting during the summer close to fishing, golf, and a short drive to many other attractions. Modern amenities ensure all the comforts of home for adults and children. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful stay in the Western U.P.

This home was the absolute best one we've ever rented and we've rented many. It is an updated home with everything you will need. Comfortable, roomy well stocked. We had a mini family reunion and were able to comfortably accommodate numerous people for an evening gathering. We highly recommend this property.

No snow so we didnt stay
There wasnt enough snow to drive 10 1/2 hours to try sledding so unfortunately we cancelled our trip last minute. I had to fill out the star ratings in order to leave a review or comment but am unable to leave a review on the accomadations as we did not use them. I did contact the host a few times with questions and they responded right away so that was great. Hopefully can get out that way sometime in the future.

This is my second year renting Dean's property. We LOVE it! It is the perfect size for 6- 8 people and was very clean. It is 10 minutes from the snow river hills and the hot tub is an excellent reward after a day of skiing. We hope to be able to come every year. Thanks Dean!
