This was a perfect place for our family getaway. Great kitchen set up and supplies. It was so wonderful to have the canoe and pfd’s there. Really good communication from the host. I highly recommend this house.
Our stay was absolutely fantastic! Everything exceeded our expectations. The cabin is beautiful and the views are stunning. We wouldn't hesitate staying here again. Heather and Marshal are great and so accommodating! Their attention to detail and organization contributed to making our stay memorable and one of our most enjoyable ever. Thank you for the privilege of sharing your home! We thoroughly enjoyed it!
This is a great house and location for a family getaway!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
The house was beautiful and clean! The communication regarding where my dogs could go was nonexistent until we got there. The dogs have very little room in the house where they are aloud and you have to walk your dogs outside around the house to get them into the fenced in area. This was not communicated to us prior to arrival. If it was, we would not have stayed there.

Lance, we're glad you enjoyed your stay!
Regarding where dogs are allowed: the pet policy is a part of the rental agreement you agreed to when you booked your stay, including:
PETS (DOGS) – Dogs are permitted in our home only with PRIOR approval. No cats or other pets are allowed. A $30 per night, per dog, fee applies. Dogs are not allowed on furniture and are not allowed on any carpeted areas, including bedrooms and the Kili den/must stay on hardwood floor living area ONLY. All dogs must be leashed at all times when outdoors. Pet owners are responsible for cleaning up all pet refuse. See the Pet Addendum for additional information; which states:
5. Dogs are not allowed on furniture at any time, and must be kept in the main, hardwood floor living area ONLY (never on carpeted areas of the home). Doggie gates are installed and must be used if you have a dog(s). If there is any evidence of pets on the carpeting or furniture you will, at a minimum, forfeit your entire booking/damage deposit and may incur extra cleaning fees.
Further, you saw the signs in the house that say "No Dogs Allowed" - including going downstairs, as you messaged us:
"...The only thing negative I can say is that the signs saying “no dogs allowed". The only access to the fenced in yard was through the basement but there is a sign for no dogs allowed at the top of the stairs. It was confusing..."
Your dog clearly was on the bed in the primary bedroom, as well as in several carpeted areas downstairs.
The stay here was fabulous. Nice views of St. Mary's Glacier, your own fishing lake, plenty of space for everyone allowed in your party, a fully equipped kitchen and everything you could possibly need so you don't have to bring things along if you're on a week-long trip. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at the log cabin and appreciated all of the prompt communication we received when we had questions! If you are bringing a pet, make sure to read thoroughly all of the addendum information in the contract when you sign so you know what your pet is and isn't allowed to do within the home. They provided many tips and tricks and local information for us that was helpful in our week-long stay, and even allowed us early check-in when it was available which was super helpful! Thanks for the stay Heather and Marshall.
This was an amazing place! The hosts were friendly and helpful and gave us very detailed information to get ready for our stay. The house had everything we needed and was very clean.
Great 5 day stay, beautiful home, clean, everything worked, great access to 2 private lakes in a quiet area. Best mattress in a rental I’ve had in many years.

Thank you for staying with us. I hardly knew you stayed there at all as the house was left in perfect condition. I was hoping you saw a moose up there?
I'm so glad you had a good time. We have had other people ask about the mattresses as we replaced them throughout the house recently. Thanks for your comments!
This property was spectacular. Loved the lake view and proximity to St Mary's glacier. 6 family members stayed here for week of daughter's wedding. Women had hair and makeup done at this beautiful home. Every need was provided by the hosts and they were always available for any questions. Highly recommend this rental.
Our stay was 5 stars all around. We definitely will be returning in the future. The location is impeccable and breathtaking with the fall foliage colors, hiking, shopping, restaurants, and wild animals!!! Our trip was a true treasure, one we will definitely remember forever.
Outstanding hosts and rental. Great communication from beginning to end. Heather and Marshall’s place is beautiful and welcoming. There is nothing this house doesn’t have that you’d need or want and the detailed instructions for everything are incredibly helpful. Would love to return!
House was beautiful as was the lake. Hosts were extremely accommodating to our needs. Got to see bull moose across the lake in early morning, quite a memory.
The home is situated on a small lake surrounded by amazing views. The house had a fully stocked kitchen and wonderful dining space. Our family of 8 had a wonderful time. St. Mary’s glacier hike is in walking distance. Really a beautiful spot and well appointed home.
We had a wonderful time at your beautiful house. Everything was as expected. Would stay here again. The hosts were very nice to work with. Thanks for everything.
Outstanding house in a beautiful setting. Heather was an exceptional host. Pre-stay communication, directions to the house and check-in instructions were clear and conveyed well in advance of our trip.
