For a family of four, it’s a good size property with a great location. Nearly walkable for nearby snow tubing, and a short drive to groceries and a reasonable drive to the lake.
First problem was a broken garage door. The instructions indicated that garage access was the primary, but the door failed to open. I called in but did not receive a response until many hours later, and not until the evening did we get an explanation. The side backup door was very finicky, thankfully the spouse tried again after I did and we managed to get into the property. The side area was accessible but very slippery. It seems that the local team knew and had already scheduled a repair team, but they did not inform the rental company. Entry into the house was quite awkward for our stay.
For those who plan on cooking, the cookware is barely usable. While I’m used to vacation homes having cheap pans, these pans were irredeemably scratched up (bare metal showing), with burns and warping (wouldn’t lay flat). There was only one baking pan and no Pyrex bakeware. From a serving perspective, there is a 4 person dining table with high seating. If you plan on having more than 4 members, you’ll be unable to find a spot for all of them to eat.
The bunk bed was missing it’s ladder, so it wasn’t usable. Having many kids toys was nice, but many were incomplete or missing pieces. There was a Pac-Man arcade station that turned on but had busted buttons. It would make the house less cluttered to simply remove all these nonfunctional elements rather than leave them in the house.
The fit and finish of the house also had some issues. Some outlets were missing covers. Some floor transition trim had popped up. There are lots of exposed cables for lamps, tvs, so it’s a bit of a hazard if you have babies in the family.
The lack of a door in the loft area is awkward, and the loft area is not well lit at night time.
We did enjoy the master bathroom amenities. The backward had built up enough snow to make a great sledding path. The price for the space was reasonable, but would probably prefer a better finished and furnished property at a higher price
