Convenient location for a group of 6 fishermen. Everyone had their own room and the kitchen area/dining room was perfect for evening dinners. TV room upstairs was perfect for gathering post-dinner. Big driveway with plenty of boat parking. Backing in off the road is best accomplished with someone to assist as it is a main road. Perfect for our needs, we'll be back next year.

Everything was on point, we are from hot climate; We came to experience the winter and it didn't disappoint; we loved the view, the house it's so well distributed an specious inside, it has space for every one. The not so young ones stood at the lower floor with acces to everything, the rest upstairs. We really felt at home for these 2 days.

The property did not appear as it did in the photos. Some negatives: Broken couch and ottoman, dirty rugs, septic and dumpster smell outside (that traveled inside), and a very dangerous driveway to pull out of with extremely fast oncoming traffic and a hill & cliff that’s impossible to see over or around to exit the driveway. Plus, the top part of the driveway is washing away, leaving a deep ditch to drive over. Try not to damage your car on this ravine. Some positives: the owners would answer relatively quickly and the bedrooms were clean. The owners also offered to refund our money due to the conditions we found the house in, but it was too late to find alternative arrangements for our large family.

A little difficult getting backed in with traffic but not terrible. Tons of rooms and beds, huge wood pellet grill, nice living space, 2 full baths. Great communication!!!!

Christmas House 2022

This property was ideal for our family Christmas gathering, it allowed all to gather in one place and enjoy each other's company. With the number of bedrooms it allowed 6 families to stay, it was very convenient. House was clean and well stocked with household and kitchen supplies. Was able to get in early which was helpful. Driveway was a little tricky due blind spot pulling out to main road and snow. Was a great weekend, very good rental.

Thank you so much for your review! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my place for your family Christmas gathering. I know that it can be a challenge to find a place that can accommodate a large group, so I'm glad that you were able to stay with me. I'm glad that you found the house to be clean and well-stocked. I put a lot of work into making sure that the house was ready for your stay, and it's great to hear that you appreciated it. I'm also glad that you were able to get in early. I know that sometimes things don't go according to plan, so I'm glad that I was able to accommodate your early arrival. I understand your concern about the driveway. The driveway is a bit tricky, especially in the snow. I'll be sure to mention that in my listing so that future guests are aware of it. I'm glad that you had a great weekend and that you found the rental to be very good. I hope you'll have a chance to stay with me again soon!

Fisherman’s GetawaySpacious clean living area. 3 bunk rooms and 2 rooms with queen beds upstairs and 2 rooms with queen beds downstairs. Large closets in all but one bedroom. Bedrooms do not have dressers. Downstairs bath is shower only and that bath shares laundry. Upstairs bath has tub and has door to hall and bedroom. Kitchen has 2 refrigerators. Upstairs living area has large TV and all bedrooms have tvs. Enclosed upstairs porch. Plenty of room. We didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. There are some incidental repairs needed, but nothing that interfered with our stay. We told them about those. We would stay again.

House is great

We stayed here with our family of 14 people all ages. The house fit us all cofortably as far as bedrooms and living room space goes. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with all the cooking gear you could need. Our only complaints were the outdoors space! There was a large grill that runs off of wood pellets that we had to go out and buy. And there was a mouse nest in the grill with mice in it! We cleaned it and burned it off before we used it. But also bought a charcoal grill to use. The outside area was nice to keep pets in with the fence if you travel with them. but lots of prickers so must wear shoes! The outdoor aread could use a bit of a spruce up. There was also a dead bird. We still used the space outside but had to make do. Back inside there are lots of towels, linens, extea toothbrushes if you forgot one and the two fridges came in really handy. The price was a bit high for the stay over a long weekend with the slightly disappointing outdoor area. But as far as comfort and location it worked best for us in a large group.

Thank you so much for your review! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay at my place, even though you had some complaints about the outdoor space. I'm always happy to hear feedback from my guests, and I appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. I'm glad to hear that you found the house to be comfortable and that it fit your family of 14 people comfortably. I've put a lot of work into making the space feel inviting, and I'm glad that it shows. I'm also glad to hear that you found the kitchen to be well-stocked. I know that cooking for a large group can be a challenge, so I wanted to make sure that you had everything you needed. I understand your complaints about the outdoor space. The wood pellet grill is a bit of a pain to use, and I'm sorry that there was a mouse nest in it. I'll be sure to clean it out and check it for mice before the next guests arrive. I also understand your complaint about the prickers in the yard. I'll be sure to mow the yard and pick up the prickers before the next guests arrive. I'm sorry that the dead bird was there. I'll be sure to dispose of it properly. I'm glad that you still enjoyed the outdoor space, even though it had some problems. I'll be sure to address the issues that you mentioned so that future guests can enjoy it more. Thank you again for your stay, and I hope you'll come back and stay with me again soon!

Overall okay

Overall, the house was good, but there are a few things that really need to be taken care of. Pros: I spoke directly to the property manager a few times, and she was very nice, friendly, helpful and open to suggestions. The house had a nice layout with a lot of bedrooms and two living spaces. The yard is fenced in and has lots of outdoor seating. Cons: (suggestions were given to the host) There was a very strong urine smell on the main level. I believe it was in the carpet and the furniture. There was a broken chair in the living room that especially smelled strong.(Property manager brought somebody in the very next day to shampoo the carpets and get rid of the chair) Bedroom were very small, especially the two on the main level. One of them had a locked closet and no room for a dresser or anything so we barely had room to pile our things on the floor in the corner. The umbrella for outside at the picnic table was in shreds and wouldn’t open the whole way. The host said she will replace that. Overall, not a bad place to rent, but I would double check that these things were taken care of. Again, the property manager was very helpful and communication was good.

Relaxing

There were 11 of us including a 3 month old baby and a small dog. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house appeared to be newly renovated and nicely fitted out with new and modern furnishings except for the bathroom tub fixture which is old and difficult to regulate the water temperature. Window coverings were missing from the bathrooms which were taken care of promptly once we notified our host Mike. The location was convenient for us. Although the house is set back from the road, families with small children will have to be careful as the road is heavily traveled. It would be a good idea if the town installed a warning sign appropriately for traffic approaching the property to slow down as coming out onto the highway from the property can be dangerous. At night it was difficult to find the driveway because the road is dark. A lighted sign on the side with the house by the driveway would be helpful. Matters that should be considered and/or need attention are being sent by direct text or email to the host. Overall we enjoyed the week and would return assuming that the points we highlighted to the host are taken and given attention. Our Host Mike was accommodating and responsive when we reached out. The little amenities in the bathrooms and kitchen and laundry were thoughtful and a nice touch. We are pleased to recommend this home for your vacation stay noting the above comments.

Very roomy, two living rooms was awesome, two fridges was incredibly useful, two bathrooms was surprisingly enough for 11 adults, only complaint is the smell in the rooms weren’t as fresh but nothing we couldn’t deal with.
