About this house rental
PLEASE NOTE: Although set to require 5 night minimum, depending on dates requested, we may rent for fewer nights (but not less than 3). Feel free to inquire. Also, although Saturday arrival and departures preferred, other dates may be possible, please ask. We will accommodate your request if at all possible.
After owning a nice cottage on the north side of Lake June for 15 years, we decided to significantly upgrade by purchasing this much larger and nicer home on the south side of the same beautiful lake. The phrase “walk-in and WOW” describes what happens to everyone who walks in the front door and beholds the beauty of the lake through the massive wall of windows. They walk in and immediately exclaim “WOW”!!
This house was designed with the lake view in mind from start to finish. The large beautifully decorated living area has a new sectional, four seats of which have electric reclining features.
The open concept kitchen is stocked with every conceivable high quality amenity from wine cooler to air fryer. The very large master has a massive en suite and large walk in closet. The master tub has turbo jets and the open shower has dual shower heads. We just upgraded to new quartz counter tops, new sinks, and LED lights over the vanities.
The two additional bedrooms each have queen beds, plus bunk beds with a full bed on the bottom, and a twin on top. These bedrooms share a large newly upgraded bathroom.
And then there’s another unique feature, the loft! With 2 Corduroy beanbag type chairs that convert into a queen bed, plus a futon, you can turn that game room with an incredible view into a sleeping area in a few moments.
Another premium feature of this home is the 14 x 68 screened porch with newly added fire table for beauty and warmth on cool evenings. With lots of seating areas both inside and outside, all are insured an enjoyable time no matter what the weather may bring.
Recently we added a sand beach area both above and below the seawall to enhance your fun-time activity area. There are also FOUR swings on the property (aside from the three on the dock), two for smaller children, and two that adults (and younger) can use. We also provide Adirondack-style chairs for outside, along with two loungers (see photos).
And then there’s the dock! Not all lakes, and not all docks are created equal! Definitely one of the largest and most comfortable docks on the best lake in Highlands county. Complete with a twin bed sized swing, plus two other swings, chairs, table, and lounge chairs, you can entertain all of your friends and family with no problem. And kids of all ages will love the rope swing and water volleyball area.
The dock also has a large cabinet with refrigerator so you can keep your beverages cool and easily available. Three fans on the dock keep you comfortable if the wind isn’t good enough.
You may bring your own boat or wave runner and tie off to the dock and hitching post in designated area.
Owner's boats are not available to tenants except kayaks. There are a total of 6 kayaks, including two specifically for smaller children.
Home has security system. Non-smoking property.
Small, house-trained, non-shedding dog MAY be permitted, but you must first speak with owner to confirm details. Extra fee applies.
No need to hassle with keys and the risk of losing one. We have electronic deadbolt so all you need is the code and access is easy.
VRBO does not permit owner and tenant to speak before confirming rental. However, because this is not just a sterile rental property, but a home we spend a great deal of time in ourselves, we are very particular about ensuring that anyone who wants to rent is highly responsible and will take excellent care of the property. So, after a rental is confirmed through VRBO and I have access to your phone number, I will contact you in order to discuss the rental, provide additional information, and answer any questions you may have.
This is a truly a unique and extraordinary property.
NOTE: GARAGE ACCESS NOT INCLUDED EXCEPT FOR WINTER TENANTS STAYING 30 DAYS OR MORE; HOT TUB NOT INCLUDED IN RENTAL BUT IT MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR EXTRA CHARGE, CHECK WITH ME TO CONFIRM.
**COVID-19 NOTICE** This house is being fully disinfected after each use. Your health and safety (and ours, as we are here so much) is our top priority. For this reason, we do not have same day check-out and check-in. Therefore, even if the website shows that you may reserve on the evening that someone else is checking out, that will not be permitted to insure 24 hours and thorough cleaning between tenants. Thank you for your understanding.

We had an amazing time at this house for our annual trip with friends. The house was beautiful and the backyard area offered so much! The volleyball area and rope swing kept the kids busy most of the day. The host was very responsive. We would love to stay here again!

We have been using VRBO for over 12 years and this is the best home we have ever rented. Picture perfect view of Lake June, amazing dock and boat house area with 3 swings, chairs, refrigerator, etc. and good place to fish. The main home is build around the view. Even when weather is not cooperating you can still enjoy the panoramic view from inside the home or Lanai area. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook. Top notice items. The master bedroom has giant adjustable bed, large whirlpool tub and walk in shower. The owner was very friendly, extremely cooperative and very easy to communicate . The owners have a package of books and information of the area, including restaurants, parks, etc. Very well thought out. Everything in the home was cleaned and ready for our enjoyment. They even had Charmin toilet paper! Best when to describe the property is "We felt very comfortable and right at Home".

This is our seventh year going to Florida for 2 - 3 months during the winter. In seven years, we have stayed at four different properties and this is by far the best. Best in accommodations, cleanliness, décor, the house was fully stocked with appliances, linen, and amenities to many to list. The dock. was well equipped with everything one would want to enjoy the water, sunset and socializing. The owners went out of their way to welcome us and ensure everything was working and we had everything we wanted. With all the COVID concerns out there, we were very comfortable with the precautions the owners took before our arrival, and during our stay. Five stars is a modest evaluation, a higher number, if available, would be our choice.

Lake Life at it's finest!
The house on Catfish was beautiful and was in pristine condition upon arrival. We loved the gorgeous view of the lake through the lakeside sliding glass doors. The kids were excited to explore the house and the winding staircase leading to the loft, while I luxuriated in the massive master bedroom, bath and closet. The house was so comfortable and well-equipped from the living room’s reclining sofas to the kitchen which had every plate or gadget we needed. The internet connection was strong and TV was huge. The guest bedrooms and bath were very comfortable and accommodated our friends and their children nicely, all of the beds were very comfortable. The patio and outside had many perks like jacuzzi, grill, swings, a sandy beach, beautiful lawn and carefully stowed kayaks and paddles. My husband especially loved the dock which is like a shiny hood ornament on a luxury car! The dock space is very comfortable and civilized with plenty of comfortable seating options, fans, refrigerator, table and chairs, hose, lifejackets, boat lift – basically all one needs to spend the day lakeside. Taking a turn on the rope swing on the end of the pier became compulsory for every family member, and we ended most days with the obligatory jump at dusk. The daily show stopper was the Lake June sunset, and the house had the perfect viewing exposure. The owners have taken great care to leave instructions about the house and the surrounding town, which we referenced several times during our stay (Publix, pharmacies, and food options were only a few minutes away). We fell in love with this house, Lake June, and the nearby town and can’t wait to visit again!
