Beautiful backyard on the lake. Enjoyed some fishing off the backyard. Lake was choppy most of our stay but can’t control that. Kitchen was well stocked. No conditioner but thankfully we brought a small amount. Owner was very friendly but took some time to respond. Easy check in and check out. Neighbor was nice and apologized for having Jack hammering going on the whole time :)

Our family had the best time! Kyle was a great host and very easy to reach when we had a question. The house was so homey, it had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked, the kids had their own areas which was perfect, the back deck was the best place for morning coffee and dinners, and the deck was amazing. We truly enjoyed our week here! This was the peaceful relaxing getaway we needed, thank you!

The property had everything we needed, fully equipped kitchen, living and dining room for the 8 of us, and beautiful outdoor space to enjoy the lawn, fire pit, and most special - the lake. The home sides in the corner of main lake and lagoon so you get the wide open views of lake and lagoon for safe swimming for the children. All the comforts of home while having a perfect getaway

The house was a perfect setup for multiple families & was very well stocked! The kitchen had everything we needed & then some. We really enjoyed making fried rice on the hibachi. The lake & location was great & our group caught a good amount of fish. The lake was low so it was kind of difficult to get out as the ladder off the dock didn't go down very far. Overall, it was a great stay!

House was great! Very clean and beautiful house. The only thing i would change is curtains where the bunk beds are due to light from neighborhood.

The house worked out great for our family. Great location and easy access to the lake. The owners even allowed us to check in early to get a head start on our family weekend vacation!

This lake house was perfect for our 2 families of 4 adults/4 teens. Even though it was cold and windy the kids enjoyed trying out the kayaks and they fished from the dock. They liked having the upstairs bunk room (and 2 monitors to hook up video games.) We caught catfish and turtles. Nice open kitchen/living area with lots of windows and I really liked having plenty of soft seating in the living area. This place is nice and clean but not so perfect where you don’t feel like you can relax. We hope to come back again!

Home was perfect for our family spring break getaway. Plenty of space. Thoughtful touches like some toiletries and snacks available if needed. View of lake was great! Too cold for us to enjoy the water activities, but sure they would be a blast in the summer!

We had a wonderful time. Our teenagers enjoyed fishing and we’re quite successful doing so.
We enjoyed our time relaxing on the back deck, where the fans and breeze kept us comfortable most of the day. One of our favorite things was watching the stars, moonrise and sunrise from the upper level of the dock.

We thoroughly enjoyed this property. It was perfect for our family with 4 teens. The house is beautiful and clean. The beds and couches are comfy with plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. Three bathrooms is great to have and there were lots of extras that we appreciated. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals.
We were there when the lake was down 6 feet but we still had a great time. The dock was pretty much on dry land so we had to climb a ladder down to the lake but it was fine actually. The kids took a lily pad out a ways and had fun, they also tried out the kayaks. We didn’t catch any fish but that was probably because the lake was so low. We played darts, cornhole, board games, and had a lot of fun hanging out as a family and getting away from it all. This was the perfect house to do it.
There is a bird sanctuary island close by and there was a variety of birds that would hang out on the shoreline by the house. We rented a boat at Lone Star Marina and took the kids tubing on the south part of the lake. Had snow cones at LouLous close by.
We would highly recommend this property. Owners are great communicators and everything was as perfect as it could be.

Can't say enough good things about this lovely lake house! It's perfectly set up for a relaxed, fun getaway. We had 6 people and there was room for more - and 3 of us were working remotely, with plenty of quiet space to do so. It's a perfect mix of open floor plan and private areas. Everything is immaculate, comfortable, and very well-maintained, and they've thought of every detail. The sunrise view of the lake is phenomenal, and the dock made it easy to jump in our kayak or take out the paddle boards. Hope we can come back again!

VERY ENJOYABLE LAKEHOUSE WEEKEND
I would highly recommend this lake property. When you first walk in the door you are greeted by a fresh and airy open concept living/dining/ kitchen area that looks right out over the lake. It smells fresh and clean right away. There is a nice screened in porch and a beautiful back porch with rocking chairs and dining table - all with views of the lake. I spent every morning on the back porch with a cup of coffee just dreaming and thinking and praying. All the beds were nicely made and bathrooms were clean and bright. The kitchen is amply stocked and there were spices and staples in the kitchen cabinets. I had brought my own cause I didn’t know what might be there. I left a few spices there to keep the stock growing. There was plenty of paper towels, napkins and TP. The laundry room was also a nice size and bright and cheery with a stack of clean and folded beach towels ready for the quest. There is also a nice sturdy game of corn hole for a yard game.
It was a most pleasant and inviting property and Kyle, the host, most considerate and helpful. Our family and friends enjoyed the 3 days immensely - the house and lake were perfect. We would book again.
I would give this property and experience a 5 star rating. Thanks Kyle and family for the use of your lake house!!!!

Fantastic location and perfect amenities!
We rented this house as a senior weekend with our son and his friends before all of the goodbyes to various colleges. This house had everything we needed and more to accommodate our weekend trip with 2 adults and 6 teens. The linens were very nice and bed comfort was great. The kitchen had plenty of spices, oils, etc. if you forget your own. Honestly the interior photos do not do this house justice as the view from the living room and deck is phenomenal. After a fun day on the water we rested very comfortably on the down couches and club chairs. The kitchen table was ample enough for dinner and a night of games. There are so many extras provided at this house that we normally do not see on our house rentals, including beach towels, floaties, games and more. Congrats on being our life time favorite rental from some very seasoned renters. Thank you!

Excellent location and the perfect house for a family and friends. The house was well stocked with everything we needed including beach towels and life jackets. The kids loved having access to two kayaks as well. Definitely will be coming back!

Wonderful House!
We rented this home for a get away with some dear friends, it was so perfect. The house was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable, the dock and view were also wonderful. We took the Kayaks out two times to enjoy the area, they were great. We also took the bikes for a spin around the area. The kitchen was well stocked, we cooked most of our meals there without any issues. The owners did a great job on decoration, communication and making sure their guests are well taken care of. Highly recommend this home!

Fabulous Lake Property
A lake vacay was exactly what we needed. The house was perfect as there was plenty of room for my family of 5 plus 2 friends. We had everything we needed and more - home amenities, access to the dock, yard games, etc. Kyle was very accommodating and quick to respond to messages.
With easy access to the lake, we brought a boat with us and used the whips to secure. It worked out great. Plenty of life vests and fishing poles were provided for our use, as well as kayaks.
I would definitely recommend this peaceful spot for a vacation on the lake. I’m sure we’ll be back.

Memorial Day Weekend Family Fun
Despite the crazy weather, we had a great weekend at Kyle’s place visiting with family. Our dogs loved the porch and dock. We had a great time fishing off the dock, cooking SS a family, and playing games. This house has open floor concept for living and kitchen which worked out well with our adult children and their families. We would love to stay here again. Screened in porch made for a good time throwing darts but the back porch with rockers and that huge table were a fan fave for both humans and the dogs🤗Check in and out were easy and not stressful. Thanks for having us.

A breath of fresh air
Our family needed a change of scenery & this house was the perfect getaway for our young family. The kids played on the dock and ran around in the spacious backyard. My husband & I enjoyed reading on the back porch and making s'mores as a family. The house was very clean and the beds were actually extremely comfortable! Everyone slept great! We will definitely return!

Clean home with a beautiful view of the lake. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the porch and by the fire pit. Thank you for sharing it with us!

This place is amazing. We didn't exactly realize how wonderful the place was, until we opened the front door. Lots of roomy space to watch TV, hang out in the kitchen or playing cards at the table. They even had an extra folding table and chairs for our guest to share out dinner with. Beds were very comfortable, the kitchen, bathroom spotless. We loved hanging out on the top of the boat house deck. Built a nice fire both nights we were there in the fire-pit outside. Ate breakfast and played dominoes on the outside dining table. All in all, a wonderful, relaxing trip, topped off with lots of stars to see at night. Our only issue... we didn't book this for longer than a weekend... We could have all stayed a week and never missed the city.Thank you - we will be back.

Amazing views!
My fiancé and our two close friends took a weekend trip to this lake front property, and it was amazing! Super clean, even at Covid standards. The dock was great, loved the two kayaks they had ready for us. Spent a lot of time at the fire pit and throwing darts in the outdoor/screened in patio. 10/10 would recommend, and we’d love to come back!

Great Lake Experience
If you are looking for a perfect get away, this is the Lake Home for you. The house was perfect, comfy and very clean. The owner was great to work with. It was very obvious he truly cared about our stay experience.
The front patio was amazing and the view of the lake was perfect. We so enjoyed the sunrise and sunsets as well. We worked during our stay and how perfect it was to set up my work desk on the kitchen table and look out over the lake all day. We are already looking at available dates to re-book this wonderful Lake Home.

Great weekend at a beautiful lake house!
We quite enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you need and is as described.. We swam, fished, and the kids enjoyed the kayaks. The house is decorated beautifully. There is plenty of seating on the screened-in porch, the back porch and on the dock. We enjoyed cooking breakfast and dinner on the hibachi grill, and eating outside. The kids enjoyed s’mores over the fire pit. A great time had by all. We would definitely stay here again.

Spectacular View / Convenient Location
This is a great property at a reasonable price. My kids had a wonderful time playing on the kayaks and catching frogs. I thoroughly enjoyed the air conditioning and fell asleep several times on the family room lounge chairs. We had no complaints. Everything worked. I encourage everyone reading this to try and book an extra night beyond what you need. The time went too fast. By the time I decompressed and caught up on sleep, it was time to go.
