Money wasted on a bad experience.
Our four day New Year’s weekend was a bust. The 4th bedroom doesn’t exist! It is a shed 20 feet away from the house. A small heater and the temperature is below zero, there is no way anyone was sleeping out there! We found mouse droppings in several kitchen drawers, on towels and on countertops in kitchen; also in master bathroom. We had to put all food in fridge or in coolers. When we reached out for assistance we were told maintenance person was on the way. They never showed up, then no communication. We left after 2 nights and left 2 nights early. When we asked for any refund we were told it is normal for mice to be in the house! Nope! We'll never stay at a Jack Frost property again.

Great place but misleading
Great property, beautifully decorated and comfortable. But very misleading as the posting says clearly 4 bedrooms and the 4th is outside, on a separate building that you are not allowed to go. Overall the place is wonderful and we’ll go back and recommend the place, but only for a snall group of people.

Very nice place to stay! We really enjoyed the home!
My wife, myself, and my son and his family stayed for a few days over the weekend and really enjoyed it! The house is very clean and nice and they supplied plenty of towels for the showers and Jacuzzi. The area is secluded and nice with a few houses nearby. There was still a bit of snow on the ground when we stayed there, so we weren’t able to take advantage of the entire yard but we really enjoyed the Jacuzzi. I would definitely stay here again!

Birthday Weekend
The property was nice, but not as nice as the pictures since it was of the summer months. this time of year there is tons of snow and hard to get to trails. if you are there fo out door activies wait till later to enjoy the property. there were only 3 beds, 2 queens and a King size. one of our girls had to sleep on the sofa the first night. Property management was nice enough to supply an air mattress not the most comfotable. the hot tub was nice this time of year to enjoy outside. that was a plus for us since Gold Fork was not letting peopl in with out proof of vaccines. " we dont even carry one around anymore. Wifi was good enought to watch movies with the family in the evenings. Check in times are kinda late especially if your working that day. i cant complain to much. the Kitcfhen was awesome! could use some Olive oil and more spicecs for cooking for sure. if oyu havent notice the ice maker does not work but a counter top one is there to use for ice :) it was well maintained and clean. it gave us some needed RR. i would look at this property again for the summer. but the price is a bit steep .

Lakeside Cabin Stay
The property and house was beautiful with great amenities. However during the winter time we stayed, there was no access to the rest of the property advertised due to high snow volume. There was good communication up until the last few days. The check in is too late and the check out is too early. There is 4 bedrooms advertised in the title when it is actually only 3. The internet is spotty which is understandable. All in all an enjoyable stay and I would recommend this.
