| "Beautiful cottage and very well appointed with all that is needed to relax and enjoy. Our adult family of six instantly relaxed, due in large part to the silence and serenity that this property provides. Access to ATV trails was excellent. Margo the property manager was fantastic and really made our experience. Much thanks to Margo"

Our stay was nothing short of amazing but only wished the weather had been better ( coldest and wettest week of the summer). The amenities were top-notch and truly made our time there special. A special thanks to Margo for her incredible help throughout our stay?your kindness and assistance made everything even more enjoyable. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

| What a great week! From booking to arrival and checking out, Margo was extremely helpful, and even spoiled us with a welcome basket of treats! We all had such a great time at this beautiful cottage, soaking up the sun on the big dock, and taking in sunsets in the screened in porch. Our dogs had the best time swimming in the perfect sand- in beach entrance to the lake. We couldn't have asked for a better week and we can't wait to come back again!

| Wow, this place was incredible! I just got back from a stay with my family of 5, including 3 young kids, and this place couldn't have been more perfect.
We spent our days down by the massive beautiful dock. The kids loved jumping into the water, ran around on the water mat, and played in the little sand bar. Equipped with lots of water toys, we enjoyed going on adventures in the canoe, kayak and paddle boat, and watching our oldest learn to balance on the standing board. The cottage sits on a lake that's clean and quiet, yet still large enough to enjoy a trip on a seadoo or boat, and provides stunning views to take in as you explore. We took advantage of the lovely deck attached to the main cottage, with the best BBQ you've ever seen, and had our meals out on the deck looking out onto the water. As dusk approached, we'd often fish and would have lots of success even right off the dock. A fire pit, with plenty of seating provided the perfect gathering spot to enjoy a fire and smores before the kids would pass out from the day's fun. The cottage itself is beautiful, and even bigger and better than the pictures highlight. We had a family of 4 join us for a quick stay and the spacious fully equipped cottage hosted all 9 of us very comfortably.
This place never left us wanting more. Margo, our host made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to ensure our experience was perfect. We loved our stay at Valhalla and look forward to retuning again next year!

| Our family had one of the best vacations ever at the Valhalla Chalet. Margo went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. She was an amazing host! We launch our pontoon boat which we docked at the cottage. We toured the lakes and fished daily (fishing was excellent and my husband caught his largest bass ever) Kids had a blast with water toys and the floating mat. The cottage was gorgeous and very well equipped. Definitely plan to come back!
