Communication prior to check in was fantastic, unfortunately no check in/out manual so we were unable to find the wifi password eventually we found it in a drawer. Recommend making a manual with check in /out procedures especially trash and things to know. I did throw in a load of towels prior to departure but some owners do not appreciate this. However tried to be helpful and get house clean as possible. Note this property water pic is .3 miles at the boat ramp not a bad walk just not what I anticipated. Additionally there are neighbors despite abutting 214 acres of national forest and unsure if we could actually walk in forest based on red painted trees so maybe let guests know this. I had expected hiking. Lastly note the ac is only in tv room and bedrooms get very hot. Owner had left a box fan which was great and looks to be i. Process of remodeling so I'm sure window units will come or additional AC's. Overall great communication with owner and honestly wouldn't have needed it had questions if a manual was available. I would give 4/5 stars simply because it's more off beaten path which I had loved but the water wasn't as close as expecting. Loved how house supplied everything. Thank you Chris! If we ever visit the ice castles we will be back ..

We loved our stay. The house is spacious, it has a wood stove the owner had going for us when we arrived. We had plenty of linens and the use of the land.

Great setting- THANK YOU for the accommodation* understandably, spiders and cobwebs are part of the environment and to be expected... it could have been a tad more clean/safe. ( rusty nail found near walk way and the tub had to be cleaned out before use- very stained futon- bedroom door off hinges etc) but overall very dog friendly and lovely location.
