Great location for 4 season fun!

Cute and clean this place had everything we needed for our small snowmobile group. Close to town and trails. Had parking for 1 truck and trailer and all of our sleds. Easy access to the house and Brett was great host and very responsive. I would definitely stay here again when in Grand Maris.

Snowmobile getaway

Long weekend with my nephews, brother and my 2 boys. The cabin was found to be very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The owner was great to work with and I would recommend this cabin to anyone looking to get away. Thanks for sharing your place. We will rent from you again.
