An unforgettable stay
This house has everything you would need, from the space for a big group down to Kleenex in every room. Kyle was such a great host and very responsive. Not only was he available for any issues, he even came out to the house to bring out sleds for the kids. When we got hit with 2ft of snow in one day during our stay Kyle made sure the snow was removed promptly and we were able to safely leave. This property is perfect for gathering together and making memories, I know our family will never forget our Thanksgiving trip at the Quack Shack.

Very pleasant stay at Quackshack
Big A-frame house with plenty of bedrooms for our family reunion in the Gaylord area. Quiet neighborhood. The basement playroom was great; never heard a peep from my nephews.
