We stayed at Wander Inn for a week with a group of 12, ranging in age from 3 to 87. This house was perfect! It was clean, comfortable, and felt much roomier than we expected. The setting was amazing, with plenty of wildlife to enjoy. The kids especially loved the game room, the large clean hot tub, and the outdoor areas.One minor issue is that the boat dock is about a quarter of a mile away and there is no vehicle parking, so you have to either carry everything to the dock on foot or have any needed gear equipment dropped off at top of the trail leading to the dock.All-in-all, we give this house a resounding 5 stars and would highly recommend it to other visitors.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled that Wander Inn was the perfect home base for your multi-generational group. It's fantastic to hear the kids had a blast in the game room and hot tub—those are always crowd favorites! We appreciate you noting the dock logistics. We try to set expectations upfront, but we understand it takes some planning. We're glad it didn't dampen your amazing experience. Your 5-star recommendation truly means the world to us. We'd love to welcome your family back anytime! Madison, Railey Vacations

Wisp Trip

Place was very clean, had great hangout spots inside for large groups and was at a great location. However the check out process was a bit much, especially considering how early we had to check out (10am). They required us to clean and put away all dishes (simply running the dishwasher before departing was not acceptable), take all the trash out and put it in the receptacle at the end of the very long driveway, strip all beds, and wipe down the fridge and countertops. If I am already paying for the cleaning fee, why do I also have to clean?

We appreciate you taking the time out to leave us with your feedback Vee! We apologize for the inconvenience concerning our check out process and would like to mention that we do have our polices in place to ensure a smooth transition from check in to check out as well as for our housekeeping staff. Otherwise we are glad to hear that the home, and location provided all you needed for a fun filled vacation and we hope to see you again soon! Madison, Railey Vacations
