Great location and views, super clean and comfortable.

We selected this house to stay at n when visiting Rayburn with some family friends. There were plenty of sleeping spaces for sets of parents, a couple of 16 yr old boys, and our 9 yr our daughter. Separate, comfortable, clean, and nice. We all enjoyed and hope to return in the future. The host provided excellent information to make our stay enjoyable.

Great Location, Great View, Great Stay

We rent this house yearly and always have a great stay. Location is amazingly close to the marina to put boats in the water and easy lake access directly from the house. If you’re looking for a lake house rental, this is the one!

Fuselier Family

The House was great and the view even better. While the walk to the water was steep, once you got there the beach and gradual increase in the depth of the water was great for relaxing and swimming. We saw several Bald Eagles each morning along with a few deer. Overall great vacation.

Eagles

We enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable, and the lake views are amazing. We saw eagles flying overhead each morning. The grassy area between the house and lake is pretty but difficult to use due to the degree of the slope and the presence of the sewer sprinkler. We had one adult take a tumble in their chair on the lawn.

Amazing weekend

We brought our kids and some friends. It was a beautiful property and an amazing location. After a little trouble finding it in the dark (my GPS had me turned around), we were able to contact the owner and everything went very smoothly. Tons of room and perfect for a weekend away. We will definitely keep this listing in mind in the future!

Relaxing New Years Weekend

This property was very clean and larger than I expected, based on the pics. (There are 3 bedrooms plus a loft) The neighborhood was also quiet. Blake called the day before our arrival and sent clear instructions by email. The house was well stocked with everything we needed for our 4 day stay. Great views and beautiful sunsets!

Best Sweet 16 Ever

We recently rented this property for my daughters sweet sixteen. My daughter and several friends (along with two chaperones) had an amazing time. Of course the group grew from the original number but this home was plenty big enough. Blake was great with details and made check in/out a breeze. The view is nothing short of spectacular. If you have a large group I highly recommend this property.
