We had the best time at this home. Not to mention the host was very helpful and communicative from the time we booked until the min we left. We loved the upstairs downstairs set up. Plenty of pillows and blankets for extra comfort. This host left no stone unturned. Best rental we have ever had.

Wonderful family time in a peaceful location
My family enjoyed four nights at this home in mid-March and enjoyed every moment. The owners are wonderful, extremely thoughtful and go the extra mile for their guests to feel comfortable and welcome. Our family enjoyed HOURS on the lake in all the boats available. The lake is very small, quiet and peaceful. My husband and kids also spent so much time fishing and were very successful. I loved spending time reading in the lounge chairs on the dock. There is so much to do in the house and opportunities to have fun together. The beds in the house are super comfortable, I wish I could have brought the downstairs bed home with me!

Just what we needed
The owners were beyond accommodating!!! They were super quick to respond to questions and gave helpful and fun tips. We rented the boats/kayaks and had so much fun!!! The area outside is perfect for everyone, they have so many different areas to hang out❤️. The beds were so comfy, I was super worried because I forgot my pillow at home, but there’s were great. We are looking forward to our next visit💕

It was lots of stairs twist and turns . We didn’t understand the water drippings in our bed when the upstairs was being used but overall great stay. Loved the scenery from the peddle boat.

Lovely Lake House Retreat
Highly recommend. Description of home and property is exactly as it was stated. Our family throughly enjoyed our stay. We were able to make memories fishing, swimming and had lots of laughs. We all got to learn how to paddle board. My daughter and I also learned how to use the kayaks. My son and husband were already pros. We also used the paddle boat, very fun. We saw wildlife creatures up close. My husband named the Opossum George. We did see a water moccasin crossing the steps by the bbq pit. We made friends with the neighborhood dog, she was sweet and very friendly. Our two little dogs liked her too. If you want a relaxing time away from life, unwind here. Thank you again Richard and Carol for making your lake house feel like home. Beds were so comfortable to sleep in too!!!
