Amazing team bonding location

Of all the many stays I've ever done, Lynn has been the best host yet. We brought our Student Association team out to her country house for a weekend trip and had an amazing time bonding as a team. Lynn provided everything you could think you would need, the location is amazing (lake, campfires, drinking water), and she was super responsive both over VRBO and in-person. The team is already considering their retreat next year at Lynn's country house, and I would definitely recommend anyone in large groups to stay with Lynn!

There is More Than Meets the Eye

I had a memorable New Years Eve event with friends at Lynn's home. She was accommodating and understanding with everything we requested. My favourite perks were the long overhead balcony with lights and the 15 acres of private, nature bustling land.

Très belle vacances

Nous avons passé une belle vacance de 4 jours en famille. Le chalet, le terrain et l’environnement confortable, accessible. Je suggère de modifier l’annonce qui décrit la composition des six chambres (nombre de lit, dimensions des lits, etc) de chacune. Nous cherchions un chalet de 6 chambres et la description indique la 5e avec deux lits et la 6e chambre avec sofa-lit. Nous avons constaté avec déception que la 5e chambre est un espace ouvert, donc aucune intimité et que le salon est considéré comme la 6e chambre, donc aucune intimité également. Par conséquent, un couple du groupe a décidé de ne pas se joindre à nous. Il serait une bonne idée d’ajouter une grande armoire en guise de garde-manger. Par ailleurs, le chalet est propre, il y a amplement de serviettes et article de salle de bain et il en est de même pour la cuisine. L’espace edu feu de camp est apprécié et une promenade à la petite rivière derrière est tout simplement magique. La propriétaire est disponible lorsque nous avons des questions et besoins. Merci Lynn.

Escapade sur le Lac aux Castors

La propriétaire nous accueilli en nous expliquant les lieux et procédures. Après notre installation, nos garçons ont décidé d'explorer le lac avec les canots à notre disposition. De service, le mari de la prolétaire est venu changer le réservoir de propane samedi soir à 19h00. En demeurant dans la maison voisine du chalet, ils sont demeurés très accessibles sans être envahissants. Nous y retournerons un jour.

Spacious and warm chalet

Really great if you want to share a place with a large group. We were just 5 of us because of pandemic complications. I would definitely rent again especially with a second and possible third family. Mattresses were comfortable but the pillows need a serious upgrade. A lot of open space on the main floor. A big front porch and back yard space would make a summer trip enjoyable too. We used the ice rink in the back but the ice needed some flooding. The Host was very upfront about everything. Very responsive and communication was excellent. The location is down a remote road which is good and bad. Great if you want to be away from the masses. Probably a bit nerve racking driving for many, especially in winter and at night. For people who live in rural settings, not a surprise but for those who only drive on well salted city streets, beware.
