We stayed here in the winter and it was incredible. We loved everything about it and want to book our next trip already. We did forget to bring bath towels, oops! This was clearly communicated to us we just missed it - just a note to future travelers.

Hi all, great place, access to the snowmobile trail is at the end of the driveway. We were able to turn the 2 place trailers around. Ample space for 4 trucks/trailers. Communications with management was excellent.

Northwoods snowmobile trip

Had a good trip riding sleds. House was as good as advertised, only thing to caution if you bring multiple truck/trailers they won’t fit in the driveway. But the northern motel and cafe is next door and they let us park there which was very helpful. And their breakfast was great! Trail access was right at end of driveway and a great location for going in multiple directions. No issues renting again!

Little Spider Lake

This was a beautiful place to stay. The place was clean and big enough for 6 adults and 2 children to stay comfortably. We caught fish on the beautiful lake. We saw eagles and Loons. It was a wonderful family vacation.

Northwoods Charm

Great property. It is very private. Little Spider Lake is beautiful. Its location puts you in the middle of so many great communities. It is very relaxing property we had the opportunty to see a lot of wildlife including a Bobcat.

Fantastic

House was beautiful and had everything needed. It was extremely clean when we arrived. The plan was to eat out a couple of nights, but once we found out the kitchen had everything required we cooked and ate all meals at the house. Close enough to everything but far enough away to feel secluded. Highly recommend the Decompression Zone for a small family or 2 couples. Only drawback was the 60 steps down to the lake. Otherwise everything else was perfect.

Girls Weekend

It was a wonderful weekend and a wonderful house. Had the best time. Wish they would of out how to use inside fireplace but other than that would use the house again. The view was stunning with the Fall colors. The open concept was great for hanging out.
