Just an overall gold Star experience. I’ve stayed in many VRBO properties over the years and this was our best experience yet. Oftentimes the pictures tend to over represent what you are getting, but not in this case. I would say that the in person experience was somehow an upgrade yet.Additionally, I can’t say enough positive words about the top notch communication with the owner. I’ve never gotten a direct number for communication before and not only did he respond promptly with the only question I had, but we have chatted some since then and he is genuinely great guy!

Our stay was absolutely perfect, and I don’t use that word lightly. From the host, to the check in/out process to the location, home and outside the experience was top tier. You can tell the owners put a TON of time thought and energy into every single detail of this house. The property and outdoor space was absolutely stunning, I felt like I was living in a magazine the whole time. Then inside was even better…the kitchen was gorgeous and fully stocked, having everything you’d ever want or need including coffee options and more, the bedrooms were cozy and clean, comfortable beds, furniture etc. and they layout of the home worked perfectly for our stay. Sometimes you stay at a place that is so nice you are almost on edge because you don’t want mess things up, this was not one of those. It was over the top beautiful and nice but also made us all feel very at home. The surrounding area is also a ton of fun, with the shanty creek resort amenities to bellaire being right down the road to torch lake being a short drive away. If I could live here, I would. But I’ll have to settle for just coming back to visit as soon as possible. I highly recommend and thank you again, Jason for your hospitality. 7 out of 5 stars!

This review is the easiest I've ever had to write before, I'll sum this will be up in four simple words, “This house is unbelievable!” Their attention to detail and comfort in every single room (inside and outside) is perfect. My wife and I spent most the weekend trying to guess as to what this couple does for a living. Our conclusion was that he must be a builder, because only a builder would build something so perfect for themselves. Not only will we be back here when time and money permits, but if I ever make enough money to build a house like this myself one day, I'm going to come back here and steal all their ideas. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!
