THE VIBE
Step inside and the space hits you first: soaring ceilings, an open-concept main level, and a professionally decorated interior designed to feel as good as it looks in photos. There`s enough room that sixteen people can gather without anyone stuck in a corner. Tucked into 2+ wooded acres of privacy, this is where big families, multi-gen trips, and friend groups come to actually spread out and be together — not stack on top of each other in a rental built for half your group.
WHERE EVERYONE SLEEPS
With 7 bedrooms spread across 3 levels, everyone gets their own space. Here`s how it breaks down:
Main Level
King Master Suite with private full bath, 1 Full bedroom, half bath, plus the kitchen, dining room, breakfast nook, living room & reading nook
Basement Level
2 King bedrooms + full bathroom + the massive game room
Top Level
2 King bedrooms + bunk room (2 twin bunks) + loft with pool table & poker table + full bathroom
Every bedroom has its own mini-split heat/AC, so everyone controls their own comfort. Two bathrooms feature heated electronic bidets.
ENTERTAINMENT THAT ACTUALLY DELIVERS
Downstairs in the basement game room, the fun spans generations. Challenge the group on 3 standup arcade cabinets and an arcade pub table, settle in with the Xbox Series X on the 85` TV, or break out the well-stocked collection of family, board, and card games for a night around the table. That same basement level is home to the dedicated karaoke stage — full lighting rig, wireless mics, and an Ikarao Break X2 sound system — turning game night into a private concert experience. Upstairs, the loft`s blue-felt slate pool table and pro poker table give the after-hours crowd a hangout of their own.
RELAX LIKE YOU MEAN IT
After a full day of adventure, sink into the private hot tub under a sky full of stars, or step into the Almost Heaven barrel sauna for a traditional Finnish-style sweat. Both are just steps from the door — no sharing, no scheduling, no waiting your turn. Just yours, for the whole stay.

In winter, professional plowing and ice melt are handled for you — all you have to do is show up.
