Great stay with friends

We had a great time staying at this property. Everything was just as described in the listing which made it easy to plan for our stay. The home is very comfortable with lots of room to spread out even with a large group of 14 which is unique. We really enjoyed the home and the property and had a great time visiting nearby Waupaca and Stevens Point.

Management Started Out Well

Walked into this beautiful, but well lived in home. The beautiful view from the deck is as pictured, however we could not go outside because there was roughly 50 bees swarming around the deck. I texted the manager right away and the owners father showed up to spray the bees. After spraying the bees and leaving us some spray the bees seemed mostly better. When he was there he told us about the golf cart tire that had a hole. And his son needed to order a new one. Well as you can see they advertise 2 golf carts and only one was operational. Later we took the operational cart out and it was an awful experience! The alignment is so far off that the steering wheel was a quarter turned and then it was driving straight.Not only that the trails they advertise are grown over so we were getting burrs stuck on us all over. The trails are so extremely bumpy that they should not be used for a golf cart but instead an ATV or UTV. The whole golf cart situation was extremely dangerous! I again contacted the manager and she said she was prepared to give us a refund and for us to figure out how much. I texted her and threw a number out there and then she said I don’t think the owners would agree to that much. Then the offer we received from management was a late check out. I told the manager that we were not able to check out late and that was not a suitable refund. Now after contacting her she is not getting back to me at all. Not a good way to do a business. Don’t rent this house!

Great Group Location!

We stayed here for our annual Labor Day trip with friends. The listing doesn’t do this property justice.. it was incredible! Not only is the upstairs a huge open concept that allowed our group of 10 to hang out as a group, the downstairs had ping pong and shuffle board for us to play, along with a hot tub for us to enjoy! The use of the golf carts was a very nice added bonus that allowed us to explore the property more (which has amazing lookout views of the surrounding area)! Many comments were made by our group about how amazing it was to be closer to home but feel so far away with how secluded you are. This is one of the best places we’ve stayed so far!

Private getaway

House is on a large private wooded lot. We enjoyed the golf carts and hiking trails. A little disappointed in the lake because it was quite a long distance from the house and down a steep hill. We expected it to be more accessible from the house. Plus the water was very weedy and not swimmable. It rained one day and the pier was half submerged in the water. The house was clean and roomy. Kitchen could have been a bit better stocked. We had to go to the store to get salt because all the containers in the house were empty. There was plenty of towels available which was nice. Overall we enjoyed our stay here, the scenery and views are spectacular!

Our family of 14 vacation together in a different location every year. This year we headed back to the area where the Matriarch and Patriarch met and married. We also had a family reunion in Stevens Point with 34 people during our stay. The house was a perfect fit for us. The only thing we felt missing was shampoo and soap in the showers. So make sure to bring your own!!

Perfect Property for Extended Family Stay

The property and home were exactly what we envisioned! Spacious and clean with quiet and gorgeous acreage. Plenty of parking space for several vehicles since most in our group arrived separately. We enjoyed the golf carts, bonfires and s’mores and making meals in the open kitchen / dining / family room area. We enjoyed the close proximity to brewery, grocery stores and small town shops and baked goods. We are grateful for the time with family at this property and look forward to our return soon!
