Great Potential
Overall, this cabin is great for a family vacation. We had an infant and toddler on our trip and the property was great for entertaining them. The beach area was great, and the lake was quiet and not busy. Where this property lacked was in cleanliness. Upon arrival, the counter ice maker contained mold, there was old food under the living room table, and a bandaid in one of the beds. Lots of bugs and cobwebs on the windows. Would be the perfect property if better maintained and cleaned.

Family Vacation
This property was beautiful. It had something for everyone. We enjoyed time on the lake, took the little ones on the kayaks and paddleboat, we fished, bonfire everynight and fun cooking in the kitchen. We stayed here for 5 days and only wish it was longer. Thank you for the great memories! Nicole

Would do it all again!
We loved our time at Valhalla Up North and would come back again! The house was stocked with everything we needed, and the huge range of water toys kept everyone, from the kids to teenagers to grown-ups, entertained.

Nice place
Fabulous lakeside house for a 3 generation gathering. Quiet lake that is great for kayaking and SUP. Even the teenagers enjoyed the lake and the fire pit. The family enjoyed watching the hummingbirds that visited the feeder. Thanks for an enjoyable week.

Peaceful lake home in the woods
The house was very roomy and has modern appliances. My kids and grandkids all had their own rooms, and open areas for group games and meals. The lake was full of panfish (kids really had fun catching them) and was ideal for the 95 degree weather. The hosts provided a lot of water toys for all ages, which was nice. Plenty of pine trees provided shade for us and the deer. The location is just off a paved road and is just a few minutes to town for supplies. All in all, we had a very nice time!
