Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dave K. Nov 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Property I loved the floor plan of the house and the large piece of property. It's the type of place I'd like to live year round. We traveled with my wife and our two youngest children (adults) and had an enjoyable, restful vacation. Another son and his family rented a home in Sister Bay. Not a long trip, but longer than what we have been used to in prior years. That is the only reason I didn't give "Location & Neighborhood" five stars. The neighborhood was peaceful and neighbors were friendly! Same with the rating for "Communication With Property Manager." Communication was fine, uneventful, and not really necessary because everything was in order and there was no need for a ton of communication. So 4 stars, not 5. But overall, a 5 star property. Thank you for a lovely property! ##### Dave K. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tim V.
