Better than ever!
This is the prefect place for our group of 4. Additional cots and lots of room allow for even more people. New for this year is a full-size fridge and very nice Keurig full pot or single coffee maker. I believe this was our sixth year staying at one of Vern's properties and, as always, we were fully satisfied.

This rental was perfect for our group of friends for a fall side-by-side trip! Not only is it awesome that it is an old bar, but it was comfortably sized for 8 of us, and it had everything we needed to make meals and enjoy our stay. It is located right off the trails for easy access for trail riding or snowmobiling. We would definitely stay again!

We loved this place!
We stayed with our 12 yo son and Jack Russell dog. It was really a unique place to stay. There were more amenities here than I have in my own house! We loved that it was so close to the snowmobile trail. We plan to come back with more friends next time. It’s tough to find an affordable place to stay with a dog these days.

Great stay, owner was awesome!
We had three families and there was room for all. Owner was super nice and had a ton of information about the area. When you get there, remember it is a bar that was converted to a house. The pictures are spot on, but the bear mount over the door still made my daughter jump when we walked in, which I found hilarious. Our group loved this place!

Snowmobile Trip
Great place to stay. Snowmobile trail is across the road. Very comfortable place to stay with plenty of room for gear and parking trucks and trailers.

Fun Times at the Bar
What a fun experience to stay at a "bar". As we traveled around the place and had a few outside it was interesting to learn of the bar from those that we had talked to or even those who had stopped by wondering if we were open! It was a little rough around the edges, but its a historic bar and what we had expected. And from what I gathered the property was in rough shape and is in the process of being restored. The owner was responsive to any questions that we had. Being that the trail is across the road I think it would be great for those that ride the trails. There is a great little store down the street for sandwiches, bakery items and such. We found that every place we went people were very friendly.
