Our stay was fantastic. The bathroom and kitchen set up was perfect for our large group. The view was spectacular. We loved watching the bridge. We had some very hot and humid days so the lower levels got quite hot.
The description said that the house was across the street from the Snowmobile trail, which was correct, but you could not get to it. He had to drive down the road down the shoulder to get to the entrance for the snowmobile trail.
