You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Captain's Quarters: Home on 1/2 acre, pets okay, circle drive, new Trex deck.

Two-story hillside home witha full kitchen upstairs and a kitchenette downstairs. Two master bedrooms, two baths and a kids room downstairs. Gorgeous views of the EB lake. Decking around half the house with a rebuilt, large viewing deck on the lakeside. Plenty of room inside and outside for all the family and their water toys or boat and trailer. The new deck is sturdy and sustainable with Trex deck boards. New dual pane windows for better views and reduced energy use. 1/2 acre fenced lot with a newly paved road. We're only about a 1/2 mile from Hot Springs Landing and very popular launching and camping area.

Great weekend at the lake!

The property is beautiful, well stocked and extremely comfortable. We truly enjoyed our stay and found the location easy to access, the totally fenced yard felt very private, neighborhood was quiet (other than the obligatory fireworks on July 4th) and we appreciated being able to bring our dog along on the trip. Definitely recommend this host and property, and hope to be able to stay here again in the future.

The pictures do not do this home justice. It is spacious and lovely. The extra perks (dog kennel & water bowl, extra tables, outdoor chairs and more) made it that much better. Look forward to staying here again.

This is a great property overlooking the lake!

The view from the house of the lake is beautiful. The house is very comfortable as well. It’s nice having two kitchens especially when you have two different families living there for more than a few days. The owner is also very responsive to questions. This is a great property for a quiet getaway!

Captain's quarters

The stay was beautiful, and the house was very comfortable. My only complaint is trying to message back and forth with Vrbo. I found it confusing and tedious. The host was great with this issue and texted my phone number, which gave me instant results. Nice man!!
