Guys Fishing Trip

We rented this house to accommodate 8 guys. The house had plenty of room for all of us and was in a great location. Plenty of room for parking 4-6 boats. Would highly recommend this property to others. Pool was not open in early May which was fine for us.

Very nice place with lots of room. Will definitely stay again and looking forward to the pool being done. Host were very helpful and made us feel welcomed into their home. (cookies and wine were awesome) Only negative was being charged a cleaning fee but asked to do dishes, laundry, etc.

Our family was looking for a place close to Lake Rathbun that would allow us to all be together. What a wonderful spot we found! The pool is perfect, ample towels provided! Check in and out was a breeze! Plenty of space to park the boat at night. Wonderful!!!! Allowed the grandkids space and time to be with Grandma and Grandpa; what a blessing!

Spacious home, Wonderful Pool

The pictures don't do this place justice. The house is clean, spacious, and has everything you need. We loved sitting on the huge deck and took advantage of the very clean, heated pool. The host was very responsive to our questions and needs. The only suggestion would be putting some darker curtains on the windows in the upstairs bedrooms, the sun had us up pretty early. Overall this was the perfect place for our girl's weekend and we would definitely stay again!

Great stay but was very disappointed after our stay

The house was great. The location was great. But after picking up the house and following all rules and leaving we got blamed for air plugs on mattresses missing and a blender broke. We never used the air mattress nor did we ever use the blender. Very disrespectful. Can not give 5 stars and will not be back.

Perfect spot - attended wedding at Emerald Hills Event Center

Great location for wedding held at emerald hills event center. Easy drive to get gas, groceries…etcThe house was very clean and comfortable. The wrap around deck was wonderful. We used the grill and it worked great. Our dogs loved the large yard. We played bocce ball, corn hole and sat around the pool. It was fantastic. The kitchen was fully equipped and user friendly! The basement is great set up with small bar and the outdoor access makes it so easy for dogs. There were 6 of us plus 2 dogs and we had more than enough room! We had absolutely everything we needed for an excellent week! Thank you so much Joiners for our stay!!
Chilling on the deck.

Location

The location was great. We were less than 5 minutes away from the boat ramp and had suffient parking on property for multiple vehicles and a boat. Only complaint is the gas grill which was not clean when we arrived. The property manager did bring us an electric grill to use for the weeekend as well.

Our stay

Very good, well appointed and very clean, tiny kitchen. Porch was the most popular gathering point, could have used at set of stackable lawn chairs and a roll down sun screen. Nice gas grill, needed a back up gas tank, ran out while we were cooking. Driveway gate needs some tlc wind blew the latch off. Gate is a necessity with the closeness of the highway. Overall a great well decorated house with a great driveway I could turn my truck and pontoon boat around in the driveway with two other cars parked there. Very clean!
