Our family had so much fun here! We played games all day, relaxed, kids dog burned off energy running around outside (yay!)… we would recommend staying here, and have already started talking about coming back.

We enjoyed our stay at this property so much! The location was ideal for the wedding we attended in Alma Center, but more than that this rental had everything we needed as a family away from home & then some. The kids loved the game area in the basement, the grownups enjoyed sipping morning coffee and watching deer roam through the yard. We made a stop in Hixton to the cheese store & were so glad we did. Great property, great location, great communication. Make the reservation!
