There was plenty of room for our 4 family groups. The teens had fun learning to play pool. Spent time on the dock fishing and 2 nights having a bon fire. Close enough to hit the beach in Detroit Lakes. The kids stayed up late to watch movies and we did not hear a thing from our bedrooms. Good vacation.

Beautiful home. We had 8 adults and 3 kids. Nice home to gather but if unable to do steps probably not for you as the kitchen is on second floor. We were there in the winter and enjoyed our stay, Easy check in and communication great with host. If going in summer not a place with kids as have to cross a highway to get to water and no beach area. As far as adults and a place to get together a great place.

Having all the bedrooms was wonderful. Multiple fridges was great. We had a blast with friends and their kids.

My family rented Jer’s place with total of 6 families. It was great to have a room for each family and space to spread out and relax. We appreciated the extra fridge space! The public access beach and park on Eagle Lake was fun for the kids and quick to get to.
This home has plenty of space for big gathering. We liked having enough bedrooms for everyone. The home also has great entertainment .... pool table, darts and lake access across the road including dock and space to tie up your boat. There was also flat yard in the back for beanbag toss and spikeball games we brought. The deck was great for enjoying the outdoors in the morning and evening. There are 3 refrigerators which is good for big groups and the kitchen is well stocked. The upstairs dining table seats 6 but you can eat at counter or other downstairs table. If you plan to grill, eating in stages (for a big group) is best because the grill is small.
