September in Otsego County

We have property in Otsego County, so it was nice to find a place to stay that was close and convenient. I hope to stay there again. I especially enjoyed using the garage and large back yard. The house was clean and well maintained. Thank you!

Gaylord stay

Needed a quick place to stay and the owner made it possible in less then 4 hrs. Excellent communication. Access to garage is a added bonus to unload car. Huge back yard surrounded by thick woods on 3 sides, great privacy back there. House is decorated nice, was clean, and had nice new fluffy towels and bedding. .

Great little house with privacy.

We loved staying at this little house. It was clean and it provided some necessities. Beautiful yard and we really appreciated the garage since it rained alot of the weekend. Be aware that this property is on a semi-main (rural) road and you can hear traffic from inside. It was not an issue for us though.

Up North Trip

I was very pleased with this rental home! It was everything i could have hoped for. It was very clean with new apliances . The washer and dryer helped me out alot, and made the packing process easier. The home was beautiful and backyard was too. The garage really was great as well i didnt have to pack and unpack my car in the dark. The climate control was great as well the home stayed a very comfortable temperature in the summer heat. The kitchen was the perfect size and very enjoyable to cook in. The living room area was very comfortable as well. I really enjoyed my time here. This has been my favorite rental home so far. Looking foarward to staying here in the future!! :)

Cute, clean and cozy place. Traveled for work training and was unable to secure a sitter for my older dogs, owner was accommodating letting me bring them. This was my first time using a short term rental. Semi traffic from the road was a bit loud at times with the windows open but with the windows closed and air conditioning on, it wasn’t loud at all (a/c which worked great). When I contacted the host for a couple of questions I had, she answered my call and got back with an answer very quickly. Would stay here again! Thanks for a great experience!

Elk sightings

Came up to the north country to see the beauty of the change in seasons, drive gravel roads, look for elk, golf the great courses, check out the off the beaten path watering holes and just get away from it all. The cabin was OK, thermostat kinda complicated but I made it work. Everything was in order in the kitchen, had a nice homey feel to it when I was there, all the tv stations one could want, had to search hard for the Fox football channel but I succeeded. All in all a good place but the morning traffic is a bit much. Sounded like some of those semi's were coming through the bed room. And was the bed spread. Thank you, Doug
