Laura's place is absolutely amazing. It is very close to Big Lake/Monitcello. The views were incredible, we loved seeing all the ice fishers on the frozen lake! My nephew was even able to sled in the backyard which was great entertainment. The house is wonderful, super warm and cozy, and was decorated so well for the season. Laura and her husband were also very kind and inviting, she responded to me extremely quickly if I ever had any questions, and they even went out of their way and dropped of ice skates for my nephew to use for our visit as well as donuts as a welcome gift! We will definitely be staying here again when we come back to visit our family.
