Excellent launching point for the lake
Amazing time here in this house on the water at Island Park. Manager was extremely helpful and the house was beautiful! Family really enjoyed the large kitchen, the firepit, the ping pong, the theater room, and especially enjoyed the spacious dock. Only one downside might be the lack of showers for a large group, but that's a small con in a sea of positives for this place.

Family Vacation
What an incredible week we had! This is truly an amazing property in an amazing community and the pictures listed don’t even do it justice. Property was clean and the views were amazing! It was a great location and it was perfect for our large family outing. Truly a memorable trip and the house provided every amenity you could imagine. Kitchen was fully stocked with appliances, beds all had blankets and pillows. Wood for a fire. Movies, books. Things for every age to be entertained. We spent a majority of our time in the water and had a blast with kids, teenagers and adults. The property manager was very helpful and always available if we had questions. The only feedback is that there were some missed cleaning spots (cobwebs and some food under the beds.) We will definitely be back, exceeded all of our expectations, thank you for a great stay!!

This property has it all.
We loved our week here. The location on the lake, and the dock are ideal. The large parking area in the front of the house easily held 7 vehicles and 3 trailers. The house is much larger and better situated than the pictures suggest. The kitchen is well supplied and the adjoining pantry is huge. The 2 extra refrigerators in the garage were helpful. The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds. There is a loveseat, sofa and beanbag in the theater room. We were glad we brought extra fans to help it cool off at night. The property manager was helpful and prompt. We can't say enough good about the our stay and hope to return. Thanks so much.

Great stay, tight Security, dirt roads,
We stayed 8 Days. We got 5 days of rain… , a little downer with dirt roads. Nobody’s fault. We really enjoyed each other and the was enough room in the house when it rained to spread out. Very successful stay. Pros: Roomy, great ambiance, 2 large dining table that fit together. 3 large refrigerators and. a Mini. Our family enjoyed games, white elephant auction with play money, fishing was great, back yard was grassy and was fun. Parking was plentiful. Cons; Dirt and gravel roads was a surprise, great stove, but the exhaust fan did not work. Had to make three trips to the dump (no Trash Service). Only 1 Vacume for the 6k Sf house. No A/C.

Beautiful home, great location
We loved the house and the location. Everyone in our family really enjoyed being together at this home. The yard was beautiful and a great place to hang outside. The cleaning service they use needs to do a better job, there was cobwebs in all hanging light fixtures, and lots of dust on shelves, some trash left in odd places. Check-in was not super smooth because codes had been changed from what was emailed to us. After multiple calls to the caretaker we finally got it resolved. But over all we were thrilled with the home. We wouldn’t hesitate booking this house again.

Our family, 13 in all, greatly enjoyed our stay at Family Reunion HQ. Spacious, extremely relaxing environment, wooded ,yet not extremely remote location. Very safe. Plenty of wild life-eagles, fish, geese. Very close to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons. Absolutely beautiful location. Not one complaint about anything. Thank you!!

Perfect place for family fun!!
We had a fabulous time here with siblings and cousins! It was so perfect to be right on the lake and the kids were in heaven. We brought paddleboards and kayaks (the home doesn’t have any available for use) and rented a boat from the Lakeside Lodge and had a blast!! It was so nice to be able to dock the boat right outside. And the fire pit outside was lovely and great to warm up after a day on the lake! We also spent time in Yellowstone - a bit of a drive but worth it to come back to a lake house and let the kids play. Owners were very responsive about any needs we had and were quick to respond and give helpful information. Kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and the extra fridges were super helpful. We would definitely love to come back!!

Amazing Family Retreat
Our group of 20 loved the location of the property and space of the house. The interior is luxurious and conducive to large groups ... plenty of seating, lounging areas, kitchen amenities, etc. There is ample parking for lots of vehicles and the view of the lake is beautiful. We could tell this is a new rental because it lacked a few key items, but the manager responded to our requests immediately and made sure our stay went smoothly. We've stayed in dozens of houses in this area, but this was our group's favorite so far.
