Guest Feedback

4.93 Average Across 13,000+ Direct Stays

Booked direct after two Airbnb stays — same house, noticeably cheaper, and ROAM answered a text in four minutes when the grill ran out of propane.
Jenna & Paul S.
We came for the trails and the location was perfect. Gear storage, dry room, maps on the counter — they get it.
Priya R.
Spotless, well stocked, and the hot tub was actually hot. We've already rebooked for fall.

Lake when the season turns

The cottages empty after Labor Day, the color lands over the water by mid-October, and the panfish keep biting into the cold.
