Perfect for big families!

Close to the beach. So nice for every family to have their own space to go to, but also having large gathering spaces for everyone to eat and spend time together. Close to North Beach when playing at the lake and the property is also across from fields/park to play sports together. We want to go back!

Wonderful for a large group

It’s hard to keep 50+ people happy when choosing accommodations but this place made it easy. How can you go wrong with everyone having their own bathroom?! Families loved the private and shared spaces. There was plenty of everything to accommodate us…towels, chairs, blankets, kitchen supplies, etc. We would love to stay here again.

We enjoyed having a family get together where all had their own space. The big house had everything we needed for serving and cooking meals. There was ample room to gather. The teenagers enjoyed the game room and hot tub. We brought yard games with us and had plenty of room to play them. When we had a question or needed something they were quick to respond.

Great place for a big group

All the cabins were clean and fully stocked with coffee pots, fridge, microwave, TV, blankets, pillows, and so much more! The beds were comfy and the cabins were so welcoming. The kitchen was fully stocked with all our groups of 20 needed. It fit all of us perfectly. To top it off the support team was very responsive and friendly. Thank you to all that made our stay wonderful

We had an excellent stay, there was several things to be aware of when you book. The furnace in the cabins didn't work and had a hard time maintaining heat.The wifi is extremely spotty and can't maintain more then 2 devices on it at a time. Bring blankets if you are visiting in the early part of the year. Also, pay attention to the pictures. Almost all the cabin beds are on the floor. Second, the main cabin doesn't have a vint or range for the stove top, if you cook anything you need to open the windows or door. The humidity in the main cabin is so high that windows fog causing mold. Three of the cabin doors didn't latch so bring some tools. But all said and done, it was spacious, there was room for everyone. It is kid friendly, (minus the stairs) it had play pens that came in extremely handy. It fit our needs.

We stayed in Saint Charles, Idaho with a group of 45 (30 adults, 10 kids, 5 babies) and had a wonderful time celebrating the holidays, even without snow. The main cabin and surrounding cabins were clean, cozy, and warm. The long dining table was perfect for shared meals, games, and crafts — we brought a Christmas tree and made ornaments and snowflakes, which made it extra special.The kitchen was well stocked, and having two large fridges helped a lot with meals. We appreciated mini fridges, coffee makers, Pack & Plays, and TVs in each cabin, which made things easier for families. We enjoyed the game room, fire pit, nearby basketball court, and exploring in a side-by-side during “mud season.” The mountain and lake views were lovely.The Wi-Fi worked well after some initial troubleshooting, and we were able to stream football — including an epic Chicago Bears win! The managers were responsive and helpful whenever we had questions.A couple notes: the area is remote and rustic, so plan ahead. A few extra blankets would help on cold nights, and taller guests may prefer beds in the main cabin. We noticed dog droppings and a loose dog around the yard, which was tricky with lots of kids and trips between cabins.Overall, a great place to gather and make memories — we’d love to return in true winter or summer!Thanks to the management team being so responsive to any questions or concerns.
