We had an infant and toddler on our trip and the property was great for entertaining them. The beach area was great, and the lake was quiet and not busy. Where this property lacked was in cleanliness. Upon arrival, the counter ice maker contained mold, there was old food under the living room table, and a bandaid in one of the beds. Lots of bugs and cobwebs on the windows. Would be the perfect property if better maintained and cleaned. ##### Amanda F. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicole K.

Valhalla and the Johnson family were fantastic hosts. The location and setting on Bass Lake was very cute. Good for swimming, fishing, kayaking and paddleboarding. House is good for group to have space and the gradual grade to lake is pleasant. House faces east so lots of morning sunlight and even into afternoon a bit. The pontoon was great to have during the week as well. Note: There was a wild rain storm during our stay which cut our visit shorter due to some water issues however the Johnson family went over and above to correct the issue and make it right. It says a lot about how much they care about Valhalla and their guests. I would recommend Valhalla as a relaxing summer escape from daily life.

Oct 24, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Weekend Getaway We had rented many places in the summer time but this is our first weekend getaway experience during the fall season. It was a spectacular experience. The cabin was just the right size for us, it was cozy, peaceful and quite autumn nights which we truly enjoyed. There were 2 cabins next to each side of us and we did hope for a more secluded area but it all worked out anyways, since there wasn't anyone actually occupying those cabins or out partying loud and late next to us. There were a few items that we forgot and Margit, the property owner encourages us to feel free to use whatever was available, which saves us time to make a run to the store. The cabin also have a sorts of kitchenware, utensils, plates, pots in all sizes which made it convenient for our cooking and dining needs. Margit was very helpful and any questions we have, we were able to reach her with a respond in a timely manner. My daughter was a bit disappointed since she wanted to fish (the dock was taken out, maybe due to the season, which is understandable) it made it harder to throw out in the deeper water where fishes are usually at. But all and all, she was able to enjoy the weekend with card games and the Xbox inside the cabin. The lake was very clear and we would recommend this cabin for a cozy and peaceful getaway in the summer if you have kids who wants to have some water fun activities! Thanks to Margit for allowing us to enjoy her wonderful cabin and a autumn experience! ##### Chee L. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peg Y.

We absolutely loved the beautiful vacation home and could not have been more pleased with everything! A group of 6 gals are sometimes hard to please, but our stay here at Valhalla Up North exceeded all our expectations! Thank you again Margit for the use of your home. ##### Peg Y.
