What an amazing vacation home! This place is quite the charm and having a lake and kayaks and all the water amenities was perfect. Got to watch my boy cast a little…. Thank you for such a wonderful stay for my family during this most special time. I’ll definitely recommend this to other family’s for army graduations.

We so enjoyed our stay at this little lakeside home. Kim was a great communicator and made the whole process easy. The only disappointment was to find only one working kayak and we were under the impression there were two. It was great to be close to grocery shopping, restaurants and pharmacy but felt the peaceful privacy on the lake. Our son is stationed at Ft Moore so we will certainly be back !
4.9
Just as described! It was outside the city but not too far. It was peaceful and restful from sitting in the screened in porch drinking coffee to fishing on the dock to playing games at the deck table. And the grill was an added bonus! The host was also exceptional!

We spent the majority of our time on the back porch and boat dock enjoying the weather and peace and quiet. Very clean and includes everything you need for your stay. Conveniently minutes away from dining/groceries. We were only 20 minutes from columbus which has fantastic restaurants and plenty to do. We will rebook in the near future as our son is at Ft Moore. Absolutely made our stay more enjoyable!

The cabin was clean, well furnished, and on the best plot in the neighborhood! I couldn’t get enough time outside to take it in! Thank you again Kim! We will be back!

Well appointed and clean property, minutes from publix but felt like it was far from the city. There are neighbors but being on a peninsula there was plenty of privacy. Outside deck and patio were very nice and a top notch charcoal grill/smoker were there.

Great cottage on the lake w/beautiful view, screened in porch, rocking chairs, porch swing, all the needed amenities. Perfect for anyone that doesn’t want to stay in Columbus but quick trip to Fort Moore. We were able to see our son’s Airborne Graduation & even made it to a jump then cook out & fish w/him each day.

We loved this adorable lake house. It was perfect for my husband & I. The outdoor area is beautiful. The weather ended up being a little too cold to enjoy the lake so we are already thinking about planning our next trip when it's warmer.

We wanted to take time say Thank you very much. We had a great time being able to spend time with our son, and we were able to spend quality family time and celebrate his graduation from Army boot camp. The lake was perfect for us to unwind, and it was relaxing.

This cabin was a lovely place to stay! Stunning location. Very conveniently close to downtown Columbus and loved the easy access to groceries and gas.

Look no further if your looking for a family lake house. One that takes you back to old times, family get together, easy living. This is the spot. This place was so homey that we didn’t want to leave.
As soon as we got there it felt like showing up and your grandparents cabin on the lake. Super low key and cozy.
The kids had so much fun swimming in the river and kayaking. They tried their hands at fishing and catching tadpoles.
We have already started making plans to come back.

The location of the property was amazing! Gorgeous view and location on a beautiful lake in the woods. The porch and rocking chairs were so nice, tho a bit a dusty. I think it was the nature of the area since our car was covered in red dust after one day. We enjoyed the charcoal grill a few times, which was really nice, but just as an FYI, you to provide your own charcoal and starters if no one else left some behind.
The bed we used was the one further from the lake and was pretty comfy and had comfy pillows. TP and paper towels were provided as well as towels and linens, which were nice since we flew in from Illinois.
The only reason I didn’t give this property 5 stars was because it wasn’t the easiest to find. The map feature that comes with an iPhone doesn’t recognize the address, so I downloaded the Google maps and it was pretty straight forward after that, but we wound up going down three different nearby legs of the road it was on cuz the address was not clearly posted (found it the last day faded on a wooden fish on pole at the top of the drive near the garbage can) and we thought the road to cabin was a private drive for another house plus there was no number on the house itself. Only way we finally knew it was the right house for sure was when we put the code in the key-box on the door. Would have been helpful to get more of a description of how to get there and what markers to look for.
Shopping at pharmacies, grocery, and even a restaurant bar is literally 5 minutes away which was nice convenience. Overall, we really enjoyed this property.

It was very clean and comfortable. The property owners were so nice to supply paper towels, toilet paper, and even coffee for the first morning. The kitchen and bathroom were recently updated.

My husband & I thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing weekend at this cute, lake-themed cabin! We just loved the screened in porch overlooking the lake where we watched flocks of geese & pelicans come and go all afternoon into the evening. The cabin was very clean, nicely decorated, and had everything we needed. Close to town, but felt so tucked away and private. Would definitely recommend for a peaceful getaway!!

Great place to stay for BOLC graduation
We were in Georgia for our son's BOLC graduation at Ft. Benning. While this is about a 23 - 25 minute drive to Columbus, it was a nice quiet and relaxing place to be. It was very nice after the hecticness of graduation to be able to come back to the lake, eat pizza on the deck, and enjoy a lovely evening with our son. We didn't get to enjoy some of the outdoor amenities due to our schedule but we definitely enjoyed the peace and quiet and lovely view.
I appreciated that there were some basics available - hand soap toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, and dishwasher detergent. Only being there for a few days it was nice that I didn't have to purchase those items that I would only have to leave behind. There is a grocery store very close by which was also convenient. Having the microwave on top of the refrigerator was difficult to reach. I would suggest putting that down on the counter.
So here's the only problem that I was not anticipating! My cellphone couldn't decide what time zone it was in! It kept changing between Central and Eastern. I think it's because of the location and that part of Alabama is Central Time and part is Eastern. Georgia is Eastern time so we needed to be on Eastern so we weren't late for graduation! I took my phone off of automatic time zone updates and set it to Eastern time - problem solved :). But that's something just to be aware of if you are there for activities at Ft. Benning.
I'm not sure if my son will be at Benning much longer so I'm not sure if I will be back there or not. If I ever go to Benning again, I will be staying at the Lake House.
