Great house in Iron River near Ski Brule!
Overall the accommodations were great and staff recognized that weather was a factor offering a discounted 3rd night stay which was much appreciated. The Freshwater team was also responsive when the door mechanism was not opening the door. The driveway was plowed in a timely manner for our departure. My only issue was that the white king bed sheets looked like it had pet fur all over the them and pillows like the washer did not do a good job cleaning the sheets.
FVR RESPONSE:
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, Dan! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the accommodations overall and that our team was able to assist during the winter storm, and get the driveway cleared in a timely manner, as well as respond quickly to the door issue. We’re also happy the extended stay option was helpful.
We truly appreciate you bringing the concern about the bedding to our attention. This is not the standard we aim to provide, and we’re addressing it with our cleaning team to ensure it’s handled more thoroughly moving forward.
Thank you again for staying with us and for sharing your experience—we hope to have the opportunity to host you again and provide an even better stay next time. -Jessica FVR

Fantastic stay! The location is perfect for downtown Iron River. The layout is great, and the mudroom right at the entrance was so convenient for keeping things organized. It was spotless, and the hosts were incredibly responsive. Our kids loved the toys and the full-size bunk beds—it has everything a family needs! Highly recommend, would definitely stay here again if we're ever in the area.

Had a wonderful stay! The pictures lived up to the quality, which I find very rare with vacation rental.I was definitely impressed. Smooth check-in process. Had everything you would need for a short stay! The only critique I would give is the cleaner showed up 30 minutes before check out and sat in the driveway the whole time me and my boyfriend were packing up. would prefer the privacy in that time.
FVR RESPONSE:
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay and that everything met your expectations. We truly appreciate you mentioning the cleaner arriving early we’ll make sure to address that with our team to ensure guests have full privacy until checkout time.
