Short Family Getaway
The house was clean and very “homey”. My family had a great time. The kids played in the snow and even built a snowman. The owers were very responsive and even called the plumber right away to fix the kitchen faucet. Overall, we had a great experience. Definitely recommend this place!!

Comfortable Family Cabin
We enjoyed our stay. The living room is very comfy and the dining table was nice too. Good TV coverage and setup for device streaming. The house was warm and cozy, heater was good, and woodstove was a nice touch with plenty of firewood supplied (bring kindling or use hatchet to make kindling.) The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfortable. The bunk room was perfect for all the boys, while the teen girl had the loft to herself. The beds are made with no blankets, only spreads, and one must search out the blankets in various closets. The kitchen is a bit disorganized but if you search through cupboards and drawers, you are likely to find what you need. There are no wine glasses, so if you want to enjoy your fine wine, bring your own glasses. The bathrooms are nice, recently upgraded. Good showers. It was a big plus to have the garage to park in. Thanks, Fleming Family, for providing a cozy affordable place to stay.
