8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
The property is simple, clean, and served our large group well. We ate most of our meals out and enjoyed the proximity to the Nordik Spa. Cooking breakfast was ok in the kitchen but the items and appliance are very well-loved and could perhaps use a slight renewal. It is also worth noting that the house may be more suitable for warmer seasons. The winter snow and cold made our stay more challenging as the heating was not always well-distributed and the air was extremely dry (the toddlers in our group really struggled). The private road to the house is uphill and requires four-wheel drive if snowy. One of our cars was a rental, and unfortunately only had all-season tires. lt took an hour to get the van up the hill after heavy snow -- many of us had to push the car up; the host was responsive to our call and helped strategize. He eventually took our his pickup truck and towed the van up the last stretch.Overall, we felt the host was there for us when we needed. Thank you for being attentive and helpful.

Very relaxing place with lots of space for sleeping and socializing. We went to Spa Nordik, which was very close by. Great location. Nicely appointed kitchen.
