The house was in perfect location for our gathering nearby. There was plenty of room for my group of 8 adults and 6 children, ages infant to 15. The kids, as well as some adults, enjoyed the game room, which had foosball and air hockey tables and 2 arcade games.

If you are looking for a 5 star house this may not be your cup of tea. Although the house could use some maintenance the overall experience was great. Cleanliness was pretty good, like any place there are some detailed cleaning that could be done but couldn't my house too ;) Everything was clean and comfortable.
Owner was excellent to work with and very quick to respond to any inquiries. We had a family gathering and there was plenty of chairs in the shade and yard for the kids to play in. The game room was a big hit with the kids and the adults a like.
Plenty of beds for the kids to choose from.
The kitchen had lots of counter space to set food out so we did not have to have it sit outside. The fridge was nice and clean. I would recommend bring crockpots if you are gong to need them but we made do with the pans that utensils that were available. My only issue was the grills were not usable due to age and rust. Luckily we just brought in a grill from a relative in the area.
I would highly recommend staying here and my family has already suggested we get together here again next year! Thank you for the great experience.

Everything was so nice there was enough bedrooms for all my family n friends was not enough bathroom. Only disappointment I had was the grass was not cut. They had cut branches off the tree and left them. Overall we had a great vacation.

The condition of the house was subpar. It wasn’t at all what we thought or what was portayed. From dirty bathroom floor, hair on the toilet, dingy shower floor, old worn out couch and entire house had a mildew, musty smell. The couch had an order of a dead mouse/rat. Above the television in the same room, that vent need to be replaced on the ceiling. Aside from the poor maintenance, the house description should have stated that 1 full bathroom was an en-suite, which means for 10 people, there was only one full bathroom that wasn’t clean. Also, upstairs had no bathrooms and only bunk beds that could not accommodate anyone in a wheelchair or privacy for a couple. Overall, the house owners need to do a THOROUGH cleaning, give an accurate description of the bathrooms, and take away all those bunk beds. 6 bunk beds is ridiculous and can not comfortably sleep 12 people. I would also say this is the first time a family member had to rent a hotel because of uncleanness and limited bathroom for 10 adults and 2 preteen boys. This house should not rent to no more than 8 people and that pushing it. We bought a new grill due to we could not use the grill because it had a wasp/hornet nest in it. We have been using vrbo for the last 4 years for all our vacations and this experience has been the worst. Over all experience with this house was bad! But we still had fun being with our family!

We had a group of 12 and we all felt we had plenty of room to spread out. The house worked great for our group. The beds were all comfortable, the air conditioning worked well and the house accomodated our needs. Communication with the owner was good, he was very responsive and answered all of my questions promptly.

We enjoyed our stay. It had a big living room and large dining room table to play dominoes on. The kids loved the game room. There was a small issue with one of the heating units in one of the bedrooms and an additional 1/2 bath would be helpful. Overall, it was a good trip.

The best experience we've ever had. The house is beautiful and the grandkids had plenty of room to run with the added features of the game room. Us ladies enjoyed the big kitchen space and dining area. Mike was amazing to work with and we'll definitely be staying here again! My dad lives just down the road and the location to everything was also perfect.

We really had a great family gathering. The lake was close enough for swimming, fishing and boating.
The house had enough beds for everyone and the kids loved the arcade room. Thanks Mike

There were 16 of us in total and found only 2 bathrooms a bit challenging but we definitely managed! Most of everything we needed was provided. We did have to travel to get firewood for the firepit and although 2 grills are on site, you will need to acquire charcoal & lighter for 1 and/or propane for the other.
The game room was a big hit for both kids AND adults. The patios were a common gathering place for us all! The front porch/patio is covered but gets the most sun so we found the back patio the most popular as it is perfectly shaded. We brought an easy-up but never needed it. The host was very responsive to all our questions and extremely friendly! Unfortunately, the cleaning company fell short in my opinion, but after speaking with the host he assured us those issues would be addressed! Beds were tolerable but not the best. This is a great place for a large family to gather! Although there is a beach right down the road, we opted to check out other beaches about 30 min away.
Thank you for having us, if we're ever in the area in the future, we'll certainly prepare better & stay again.

Plenty of parking for vehicles and boats. Enough beds to sleep everyone. Conveniently located close to Prizer point (maybe a 2 minute drive). Great experience.

We enjoyed Southern Charm so much from the gameroom,large dining table, wonderful appointed bedrooms, and large kitchen. We had a wonderful time with 3 of our adult children and 9 of our grandchildren. The place was just as advertised and very spacious area for everyone to enjoy. The yard was large and had a fire pit. Great spot to hang out on the patio. We will be staying here again

Mouse house
We recently spent four nights at Southern Charm and had some issues. When we arrived, the trash cans were full and spilling out onto the ground. The grass needed mowed and the shrubs on the side of the house needed trimmed as they were on part of the sidewalk. The biggest issue was mice. The same evening we arrived, we saw a mouse (or two) running in the kitchen. We found some mice and rat bait under the kitchen sink, which means they have had problems with this before. We put the bait out, but that didn't help. The owner was contacted, and we were told to go buy mouse traps, and they would reimburse us. We did go buy traps (15 miles each direction to find any) and set them, and caught two mice in the kitchen the same evening. Who wants to go on a vacation and watch mice run around! We had small children with us who were scared to death, as well as some of the adults! We saw mouse droppings lots of places, including the beds upstairs! After returning home, I received a bill for $100 for the bags of trash that we left there! We had no idea that there were trash cans at the garage next door for us to use. Since we were charged the extra fee, I told the owner that they would owe us for the mouse traps and mileage, but of course, I was not reimbursed for that. The house was big enough for our group and did have a lot of beds. And the game room was really enjoyed by the kids! We loved the location as it was near Prizer Point, where we had rented two boats! The kitchen had a lot of pans and dishes, of course, everything had to be washed before using because of the mice! If you like mice, this is the place for you!

Thanksgiving
We wanted a place to "meet in the middle" for Thanksgiving. We had a blast. This property had all the comforts of home and the kitchen was spacious enough for us to cook a Thanksgiving dinner for 10!
We found our host to be wonderful to work with and would definitely suggest this cabin to others.

Wedding group
The house was definitely big enough for my group. There is a wasp nest in the chimney of the master bedroom, so we bought some wasp spray, it did also have a musty smell, so we opened windows and lit candles and none of the WiFi passwords worked. The yard was big, we had deer visits. It was set up great for us to serve food and plenty of places to sit. Loved the game room.

Great For Multiple Families
This house/location was great for multiple families. Plenty of room inside and out. Only a few minutes from Prizer Point. Easy! Loved the game room!

Family Vacation
This house was big enough to accommodate everyone and close enough to water access. Game room was very nice, beds were comfortable. Kids took over the upstairs which they enjoyed having their own space. Only thing I wish was that the grass had been mowed before we arrived.

Great boating weekend
Stayed for a weekend with 20 friends. Nice and roomy. The review comments were helpful and we did bring some extra pans for bigger meals. Plenty of towels and linens. Lots of bunk beds for singles. Game room was a hit! Stairs are steep to bunk rooms. Nice place. We would stay again!

Great little place
This is the third time we have stayed at Southern Charm. We had some minor hiccups this time but the communication was good and we still found the place to be what we needed for our group. We enjoyed our stay and will come back again if we make this trip in the future.

Great area not far from Land Between The Lakes
Great house for entertaining with the game room. If we were to come in the summer we would probably rent a boat and enjoy the water. The weather was a bit chilly and rainy which made the game room all the more enjoyable. Kitchen cabinets were a little musty smelling but a great kitchen for cooking and entertaining.

We appreciate the responsiveness of the owner.The grass had not been mowed for some time, although the yard space was nice. Exterior of house needed some TLC.We were disappointed that the gas tank for grilling was totally empty, and we were responsible for purchasing another. We did purchase a full tank for future renters.We did find mouse droppings in stove drawer and under kitchen sink, which was concerning.Bedrooms were very nice for our family and we had ample space.

Lovely setting, read below for details
We enjoyed our time together at Southern Charm. We cooked together every meal for 3 days, and the arrangement of rooms/beds worked well for us. The setting is beautiful, and we took individual and family photos, using a number of scenic backdrops. The arched trellis and fence, flowers in the back, light pole in the front, front porch. The light at sunset was ideal for pictures in the back!
There are some things that can be improved. The house was generally clean, but when you opened cupboards it seems it is in need of a deep clean. (We found evidence of mice). The kitchen is stocked with a few pans and cooking/serving utensils, but it would have been challenging to cook meals for a large group of people without the pans we brought with us. Except for the master, the mattresses weren't the greatest quality.... yet we slept. Having 2 bathrooms is good, but challenging in that one is attached to the master suite.
The kitchen has lots of counter and cabinet space, and the huge dining table and patio were great -- we used them all day every day! We grilled out, and the grill is small for a large group, but worked well and our food was delicious. The game room was a huge hit with our kiddos, and air conditioning was cold (in a good way). Everything (i.e. electronics) we used was working well. The house was just a 2 minute drive to Prizer Point Marina, which had reasonably priced boat rental and several other activities we might have enjoyed if we stayed longer.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and our time together. We would probably opt for something bigger in a future rental, but would come again.

Great 4th Weekend
Awesome family meet up location. House was clean, well apportioned, and in a good location.
Had a couple of minor issues with neighbors this weekend, seemed to be rooted in the campground/busy weekend and not wanting to deal with visitors.
Looking forward to coming back and will definitely bring a boat next time, boat ramp is right down the street and is super convenient to access.
Thanks for the great weekend.

Great weekend with friends
This is our second time at Southern Charm and we had another wonderful weekend. The property was great for our three families. The kids loved the game room and made great use of the tv room as well. The space was well-suited for eating and sleeping. Prizer Point being so close makes it easy to rent a boat and also drop in the boat we brought. Already looking forward to next summer’s trip!

Great House for Big Group
This house worked out great for a group of twenty guys looking to spend a weekend at the lake. Prizer Point's near proximity makes taking the boat out easy and it is nice that there are multiple golf courses in the area. Also the grill area is perfect for grilling out at night and the yard is great for playing yard games such as corn hole.

Everything we needed
The home May be order but it’s location, space, and amenities really worked well for our family. We rented a boat slip and kept our boat down the street. We traveled from Missouri, Tennessee, and Georgia to be together for a few days. The home has all we needed.

Great weekend with friends
We spent a long weekend at a Southern Charm and were pleasantly surprised at how great everything was. The property was perfect for our three families. The kids LOVED the game room (as did the adults when they could get a turn!) There were plenty of beds and the distance to the marina was even closer than expected. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, silverware, and the necessary pots and pans for cooking basic meals. We had a great experience and hope to go back!
