We had an amazing time, enjoying some of the best skiing in the Midwest. The chalet is perfectly located on the slopes of Powderhorn Mountain, just a two-minute drive away. It’s very comfortable and well-appointed, with all the amenities listed in great condition. The hosts were excellent communicators, answering all my questions promptly and efficiently.The chalet is a bit small for the eight people listed, but it’s not a major issue. Overall, it’s a great location, a very clean place, and has an amazing mud room to store all our skiing gear and coats. The hosts were friendly and attentive, making our stay even more enjoyable. We would definitely consider coming back and would highly recommend this chalet. ##### Javier L. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shari D.

From the local hard cider, to fresh farm eggs and recommendations on any and all attractions around the area. You would be hard pressed to find a better rental than Timbuktu. ##### William F.

Feb 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### family getaway We stayed at Timbuktu for just under a week in early January. It was fantastic. Location was outstanding for skiing, hiking, and grabbing food/groceries. With ski chalets closed, it was so convenient to be able to run back to the house for warming up and lunch. Lake Superior and a handful of great winter hikes to see some water falls are all within a 15min drive. So great. The house was excellent. Clean, organized, fully loaded with everything you'd need. Wi-Fi was good for my kids that were doing distance learning and for streaming movies at night. Our two dogs loved it too! Super easy access to/from and communication with the owners was outstanding. Quick and easy. It was our first time to this area and we'd love to come back in the summer to further explore the area. ##### Ross G. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tiffany B.

With a 2 1/2 year old and a 5 year old we were able to make some magical Christmas time memories here. Big Powderhorn Mountain wasn’t open yet but Blackjack was about 15 min away. We got the kids on skis and it went great. There were hiking trails close by. Even some that led to small waterfalls. We took the 20 min drive to Lake Superior and, even with the cold, the kids were mesmerized by the waves and rock finding. Oh and the owners of this chalet (Jocelyn and Aaron) have chickens! We were able to purchase some eggs and even feed them! Everything was also done very COVID conscious which we appreciated very much. Great overall experience. ##### Tiffany B.

The fall is such a beautiful time of the year in the UP and the chalet at the end of the cul-de-sac was peaceful. Can't wait to go back and hopefully see them again. ##### David S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sara S., Vero Beach Aug 11, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Summer Retreat / Pure Relaxation This chalet is perfectly situated for an outdoorsy vacation in the beautiful woods of Upper Michigan while enjoying all the comforts of a well-stocked home. Owners have decorated with a whimsical, arty and hip style that includes natural products and finishes. Chalet was spotlessly clean - plenty of disinfecting wipes and hand sanitizers so we had no covid worries. Comfy beds, fluffy towels, fans for warm days. Two decks for lounging around and lots of interesting happenings on the property - chickens, gardens, corn growing, apple orchard. Great area to walk and visit waterfalls, Lake Superior and hiking trails. Owners live on property but were available as needed - not in the least intrusive. We stayed a full month and didn't want to leave. ##### Sara S. Stayed 28 nights in Jul 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew M.

The house is comfortable and warm with cool interior details. Love the entry room where you can hang up outdoor gear. Would recommend to families with dogs. ##### Kristine B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### randal s.

This location was ideal for our trip, in near proximity to the ski hill, cross country ski trails, and snowshoe trail. We will book again for our next trip to the UP ##### randal s.
