Everything was great. Highly recommend getting travel insurance though because the highway to the house was closed due to winter white out conditions. Best way to protect both the owner and the guest.

Our vacation in Christmas Michigan
We had a wonderful stay. This property was perfect for our family because it gave each family some privacy with their own kitchens and bathrooms but yet we were all together. Loved this property.
