Fantastic Accommodations!

The property was very comfortable and had many games and activities for all to enjoy. We plan to return next year and we can’t wait to go back. All living quarters were exactly as described in the listing. We could not have been more pleased.

Perfect Retreat for our Family

Everything was so nice! I loved the comfortable beds and sheets, and all the amenities. The kayaks and lake mat were hits with the kids and young adullts. Three separate spaces were great for each family to have some privacy, but still come back together as a family at the main house or outside. Our host was very accomodating and we enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you!

Good Property for Family Gathering

Wonderful property. Updated kitchens. Well stocked houses with almost everything you will need and then some. Lots of water gear. There was ample on property parking for our 4 vehicles and boat trailer but the on-street parking was at times challenging what with other nearby popular properties. Good internet used by two family members working remote. We hosted our family gathering and each family had their own house but we used the main house for meals, games, and general togetherness.

Great vacation home

Had a great experience at this vacation rental. The location is perfect to see nature and everyone to enjoy the water. Whole family had a great time. Property provided everything you will need and as described. The only gripe would be outside the property where numerous fire ant colonies were and near the playground and sitting areas in front of homes.

Son turned 21- Big family

We loved this property. It was ideal for a big group w/15 people. Our girls (19 yo) used the guest house, our boys group (20-21 yo) used the bunk house and my husband & I along w/our 9 & 10 yo used the main house. What made it very easy for us was that the ppty was in a” cul-de-sac“ so we could swim and have no safety issues. The neighbors were friendly and the owners were wonderful. We totally recommend this place!

Ideal for Families

This is a beautiful spot on the lake for the whole family. We had three small families and each had their own house which was great for nap time! There is a ton of seating and lots of great activities for everyone and it is very baby friendly. My only note of caution is come equipped! The store is 30 minutes away and you will need to bring foil, paper napkins and plates, dish detergent, cooking spray and all of your own condiments.
