We have over 12 acres for you to explore and the house is conveniently located 1/4 mile off of the snowmobile trail and close to all ORV trails. Bring all of your toys, we have plenty of room for parking. The Hodenpyl Dam Pond is 3 minutes away and you can enjoy all of nature by canoe, kayak or boat.

House was a great space from our group. Easy to get to Crystal Mountain from the house. Nice and secluded. Was grateful that we were able to park in the garage. Ryan gave us great communication before our arrival to make sure we had everything we need.

The Smiling Moose Lodge was perfect for our family trip! 12 acres made it feel like our own private getaway. Both the indoor & outdoor dining tables were large enough to accommodate our entire group. The fire pit area was also perfect, and the kitchen and garage were well stocked. Highly recommend!!Fabulous memories made here with 3 generations all housed under one roof.
