Great weekend getaway!
Anders and his properties are everything you could hope for in a vacation rental. They are well kept, clean, and inviting. We rented both Valhalla and East of the sun for the weekend with a large number of guests and the houses could not have worked out more perfect. There is so much to do in the little resort and every need is met from bicycles, rackets, balls, inside games. . .and our personal favorites the karaoke stage(GREAT Sound) and the pool tables in each house. Anders was wonderful at checking in and replying to anything we came back with, I cant give 10 stars . . .but I would - highly recommend!

Wedding Weekend Stay
This house was the perfect location for our bridal party, especially loved the bridal suite which is large enough for numerous people, including makeup artist and hair stylist. Tge basement is such a bonus, and the screened in porch is just lovely. Thank you for the great stay!
