We loved our stay and the great outdoor space especially. Only hiccup was that we had been told there were life jackets to use and there were not any available. We left a few items behind and the property manager kindly mailed them to use which was so appreciated! Would definitely stay here again!

Great spot for a getaway

We booked the home for a short retreat for our work team and really loved the outdoor space and common spaces. The kitchen also worked well for feeding a larger group of folks. The bunk bed room was nice so that we had plenty of beds, though it is probably better suited to kids sharing that room than adults. Overall we had a great time and really loved the location as close enough to Fargo to not be a long drive but far enough away that we really felt like we were at a retreat.

Gorgeous large home on Crystal Lake

The house is beautiful, clean, spacious and sits on a lovely lot on Crystal Lake. We had plenty of room for our family reunion. Everyone enjoyed the fishing, darts, ping pong, kayaks, fire pit. I could go on and on! The beds are incredibly comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this house.

Excellent Home

We had a family group of 12, ranging from 33yrs to 77yrs. The home was very clean and well stocked with all that we needed. With 6 bedrooms and 3 of them with their own bathrooms, plus 2 additional baths, it was quite convenient. I would definitely book again! Thank you. Leona Fox, Newport Beach, CA

PERFECTION!

What a beautiful space to have the opportunity to share with my whole family. The house is so spacious and tastefully decorated. There were so many outdoor activities for the kids- swimming, fishing, kayaking, paddle board, marshmallow roasting, There’s nothing negative I can say about this home. Worth every penny .

We so enjoyed staying in this beautiful home. The beds and linens were comfy and ample seating for us all. Loved having 5 bathrooms and the kids and adults had fun playing darts and ping pong. Great fishing, even off the dock. Granddaughter didn’t care for the weeds in the lake but she was okay in her floater and the kids had fun tubing. There was plenty of outdoor seating so we enjoyed sitting by the fire at night. The grounds and house were easy to navigate if you have mobile difficulties. The house was well equipped and beautiful! We thank you for a memorable week with family.M and K

We really really Lived the house. The neighbors were wonderful too. We were super disappointed with the weeds, weeds, weeds in the lake. No beach for the kids. We go to a lake so the kids can be in the water, but they didn't want to spend any time in the weeds. As for location. It would be nice if it was closer than 20 minutes from anywhere. But, we loved all our family time. With 17 of us the house was perfect.

Overall Fabulous Weekend!

The property played its role exactly as it needed to. My friends and I were very pleased with the aesthetic of the home and all the details that went into making it a beautiful place to stay. The best part is, this property went beyond beauty to comfort and usability. Every single guest was overwhelmingly satisfied with the comfort of their bed. Additionally, the main living space was very useable and perfect for our large group to gather and hang out all together.

Family of 11 with kids….

Nice house with great set-up for kids! Weed removal improved lake front/dock area but was done mid-week which was unfortunate as we lost the use of area for most of the day. Freezer space is very small could use a second unit in garage. Boat launch access is easy to use and middle of lake great for swimming. Overall a great stay!

Extended family vacation

Excellent experience. The lake was clean AND quiet (very little boat traffic). Nice flat backyard from cabin to the lake (especially for the older people in our group). The cabin was perfect for a family gathering. Great open, spacious kitchen/family room. The 2nd floor bunkroom (with QUEEN bunks!!!) and the open tv/game room next to it were awesome. We were amazed that the fun upstairs (ping pong, darts, movies) wasn’t heard downstairs and vice versa (which was great). We had 20 in our group and never felt cramped inside or outside. Highly recommend!

Holiday getaway

We were seeking a lake property that had plenty of room for our family of four and son’s college age friends. We needed a location in close proximity to Detroit Mountain for skiing. We also required dog friendly accommodations. This property checked all the boxes. The property manager was responsive and great to work with. Easy check in. GPS directions led us right to the property. Beautiful, modern lake home. Loved all of the design touches throughout. Beds were comfortable. Loved the bonus space/ game room upstairs. Would return during summer months!

Fantastic Lake Home

Our family of 20 people stayed in this beautiful lake home. The "bunk room" was perfect for all the cousins to sleep in, while the adults each got their own rooms. Everything was so beautiful, the only downside is that there was construction going on next door with a new house being built. So it was a little less relaxing outside with the sound of power tools+air compressors running. The furniture was beautiful! The property manager was super helpful! I highly recommend this beautiful home.

Family Christmas gathering

Great place for a multi-generational gathering. 9 of us were confined indoors for 5 days because of extremely cold weather, and we did well in the large space and separate areas. The issues we had with the house were due to the low temperature and high wind. We couldn’t keep a comfortable temperature in the main living area. The property manager responded promptly.

Besides the septic alarm issues everything was great.

Upon arrival we had a strong odor in far western bedroom and contacted property management team, that said to try a few things, which we did. The odor did linger for most of weekend in that bedroom and the septic alarm on tank would go off outside quite frequently throughout weekend, which was annoying because you physically had to go outside to silence it. Otherwise the cabin property was great and worked well for our annual ladies ice fishing trip. Beds were comfy and loved the jura coffeemaker!

Great lakefront family retreat

This house has a great layout for our family gathering, each couple had their own room, plus extra space for the younger members. The lake was an easy walk away letting everyone enjoy it, especially if you bring your boat along. Our group caught several fish on the lake, the biggest was actually a bass caught from the dock. The outdoor area was a nice surprise, only wish would be for less bugs at night - but that's near impossible for being this close to the lake. And the kitchen - amazing! We did our best to clean up the drool from a few of our party as they hugged the gas range. But it was the heart of our good food and family time together. We'd highly recommend this place to anyone wanting to bring together a group of friends or family. I'm hoping we'll have another chance to enjoy this property again.

Sibling Trip

My sisters and there husbands all got together to spend a week at a lake this June. The house was beautiful. Property was nice too except there were a lot of weeds (thistles not fun). Also there were a lot of toys laying around in the yard that I am guessing were from prior guests. The two king size beds were a nice feature but my sisters said the slats fell off and made you roll to the middle. Apparently uncomfortable but mine bed was fine. :). Other than that I would say a great place to stay. We even discussed doing it again and bringing our kids and parents.
