We had a wonderful stay at Trailside #3! Two families shared the house and everything was perfect - the beds were comfortable, tvs in every room kept the kids happy when the adults wanted to watch football, and it was close proximity to the ski hills. After spending the day skiing, coming back to the hot tub and the ability to cook our own food was a real treat. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much, Dean!

Great place

Perfect place for 5 guys in their 40's to ski the nearby hills during the day and relax in the hot tub at night. Everything very clean and the hot tub was big. Will stay again as the kids get older and I bring the family to the U.P.

Loved the house! Perfect space for everyone. Comfy beds, big screens in every room. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook a big meal or just grab a snack. Close to Snowriver and Rt 2 so accessibility is good. Very clean and well maintained. Will definitely look to return.

Amazing property, in great condition and very well appointed! Kitchen was thoughtfully stocked, and we were very impressed that the host thought to provide a baby gate for the steps and door knob covers for the basement door. Beds were very comfortable, with nice bedding. The hot tub was a nice treat after a day of hiking. Host went above and beyond after our stay when we realized a beloved stuffy had been accidentally left behind. Communicated promptly and made sure it was mailed back to us right away.

Great stay for a ski trip!

4 of us planned a snowmobile trip but due to conditions we were not able to use the trails. We switched last min to a Ski trip and the location could not have been better! We did a day at Snow River and a day at Powederhorn. Both were only 10 min away from the house! The hot tub was the best after a long day!!
