Wonderful experience!

We loved our stay here! It was accommodating to our large group and the hosts were very hospitable and responsive. The kitchen was stocked, there was plenty of bedding, and we loved the view of the lake. We will stay here again!

For over 10 years we have annually gotten together with family at a VRBO. This home was a 12 out of 10! They provided everything even new toothbrushes, bandaids, etc in a beautiful homey setting. We could have eaten off the floor(we didn’t). Safe nice neighborhood. We travelled all afternoon and found All SIx Trolls in surrounding Detroit Lakes. Great hosts good memories. Would highly recommend.

Great Property!

Our group had a great time at this Deadshot Bay home! We had multiple families and children and the home was perfect for all of us. The home was extremely clean and there was plenty of room. We would definitely rent this property again.
