Great house, smoky smell
This house was cute, well decorated and the sauna with shower was a fun thing to try. However, I could not get past the smoky smell. There are no smoking signs posted on all the doors but the smell lingers from a previous user/owner. This house would have been 5 stars if it didn't bother my asthma so much.

Great for families
The property was clean and fit our family of six well. We had wildlife visitors (deer) every evening and morning, which our city kids enjoyed a lot. :)

Bruce Crossing home
Very nice older house. Very clean. Sauna takes awhile to heat up but is understandable. FYI there is a nail head sticking out part way up the stairs that should probably be put back in place. Good food nearby. I would stay there again. Still snow on the ground so I cannot rate the yard and surroundings.
