Our family had a good time on the property. It’s quiet, the lake has enough canoes and kayaks so we never were waiting on any or felt pressure to get off so others could use them. It’s helpful to know this property is kind of like a camp site. Different cabins, far enough away from each other for privacy but all within sight and sound. We stayed at hunters lodge, proximity to everything was great for that one! It’s true about this cabin specifically, it’s old, very uneven floors, that boarder dangerous. Nails jetting out and tile raised. In addition to weird steps into and out of spaces. It’s not a big deal for adults, but was a concern for my 18 month old. So be on the lookout for this if you have littles. The property is great and had a lot of potential, but falls short of expectations. Horseshoe pits, great! Only Two horseshoes. Basketball blacktop not basketball hoops (but we brought our pickleball net and it was perfect!) Our biggest issues were… 1- the ants. It’s really terrible, inside constantly dancing around little sugar ants all over the bathroom floor and counters. 2- If coming in the summer know it’s all window units only in the bedrooms (except one bedroom doesn’t have one), nothing in common spaces so it’s quite hot there. 3- The window units and house itself wasn’t very clean. I didn’t want to even look under the couch cushions because I could see the trail of previous food and crumbs. 4- geese poop. All over the property. So always wear shoes.

We loved this experience. There is ample room for kids to play and explore. For us, this was a New Years Eve Retreat. The winter wonderland was everything we could ask for.

The cabin had room for all of us. The 16 of us never felt crowded. Loved the huge dining table and all the couches. I would appreciate more large bowls for serving and for salads etc. and some cookware without Teflon for the kitchen. It was nice having children’s dishes though and I loved all the coffee mugs! The floors do leave much to be desired but didn’t cause any issues. There’s talk of an even larger family event with more blue canoe properties!

Bed sizes were not as stated in VRBO. Floors were very uneven mainly in dining room. Needs updates everywhere. The house holds 15 people but there were only 12 towels and no hand towels or washcloths. We also had no extra toilet paper. We went out and purchased more TP, bath towels, hand towels, dish soap and paper towel. The owner did end up bringing some toilet paper also. There were many holes close to the firepit that we had to be careful not to step in and twist an ankle. Major ant problem in kitchen - we had to end up throwing food away because it became infested with ants. One of the TV remotes batteries were dead. On a positive note it’s a peaceful serene property and close to town and a pretty and quiet lake. The kids enjoyed fishing and caught several fish.
