Everything was awesome. The house was well stocked with kitchen items and they also supplied plenty of toiletries, bath towels and beach towels. We had a couple of issues but our host Natalie Maynard made sure they were taken care of quickly and efficiently. We will be staying there again.

Family getaway
The house was great, description was good. The use of the hot tub was nice, however the kids got some sort of black residue on their swim suits from the hot tub headrests. Overall we had a nice stay.

Great Spot on Torch Lake
Had a group of friends up for a weekend near Torch Lake. Was a great location, just a short distance away from the sand bar & the marina. Lots of nice outdoor space. The triple bunk beds were definitely a little tight for a group of adults, but otherwise was a great spot. Would absolutely stay again.

Great location
Our stay here with two families sharing the property was great. There was plenty of parking for cars and boats. Outdoor area was great for the kids. Deck and firepit were great! We had one small problem that was addressed immediately and fixed completely.

Exactly what we wanted
We were having a guys trip for a friend of mine. This property was located on a great plot of land with ample room for everyone who joined us. I couldn’t recommend this property enough. If you are looking to be close to the lake in a clean property this is the place for you!

Great place to stay
This is a really great property. The property has plenty of room on the inside. The outside space is really enjoyable, especially the fire pit! The property has so much parking, my friends and I traveled to the area to go fishing and we had plenty of room to park 3 trucks with fishing boats. The house was very clean and the beds were all very comfortable.

Skiing trip
The property is more of a barn but was nice. There wasn’t an outside picture or it so we had a hard time finding it because it was more of a barn. I don’t care for properties that use Evolve because they never answered a question when I inquired previously and they also require you to leave by 10. I have stayed in a lot of VRBOs for work and fun but Evolve makes the option less attractive to me.
