Check in and check out was super clear and easy. Nancy was available by text for questions that were actually answered in the well written booklet inside. The house was even better than the description and photos. It generously accommodated our extended family of 8 in an architecturally amazing structure. The beds were super comfortable, with good support and soft toppers. There was also an extra bed curtained off from the living room and absolutely perfect for our independent eldest child. The kitchen was the best supplied of any I have ever used. One member fell in love with the Weber grill and smoker and cooked like we had not known he could. The setting was alive with wildflowers and the lake a heavenly charm.The nearby town of Burnet had everything we needed including an upscale grocery store. We spent most of our time on the porch playfully fighting over the hanging swing or lounging in the abundant chairs watching wildlife visit the lawn, the trees, and sky. It felt like Heaven. Our shared experience of the total eclipse in this serene and beautiful place has given us a precious memory that will be shared with coming generations.

Our family had such a wonderful stay at Nancy and Richard’s gorgeous lake house. It was a little too cold for swimming, but we enjoyed every second of our time relaxing by the lake, playing yard games, board games, fishing, cooking, and taking in all the natural beauty of the area during springtime. The house was stocked with everything we needed and there was plenty of space for our group of 4 adults and 4 kids. We will be back!

Brought my daughter and 5 friends for her 16th Birthday. House was perfect..stocked with everything you need. Nancy, the host, was accessible and so helpful when we were trying to find our way in the dark! Yard and lake are beautiful! Girls enjoyed canoes and kayaks. We are definitely coming back!

House is very nice with a fully stocked kitchen and ample amounts of extra bedding, towels etc. fantastic location with an awesome boat dock.

Wonderful property in a quite location on Inks Lake. Great hosts. Surrounded by nature. Highly recommend.

Beautiful property on the lake with lots of wildlife activity and a comfortable family home to relax in. The location is very quiet during the winter months, which was just right for us. Close to parks, darn good barbeque and wineries.

Comfortable and beautiful home and property to escape from the concerns of daily living.

We enjoyed our stay at the Talbot” house very much. It’s a beautiful home in a fairly quiet spot on one of my favorite lakes. It’s perfect for small family getaways. The property owners are attentive to their guests and notified us of an issue with our original booking in time for us to reschedule for a later date. We have stayed here previously and will continue to do so.

We had such a fantastic time! Swimming, fishing, enjoying time together as a family. We can’t thank you enough for sharing your home, you simply thought of everything. Everyone had a blast!

Beautiful home on the lake. Quiet neighborhood and close to Burnett, Texas, inks Lake State Park and Longhorn Caverns.

We had a splendid time at this beautiful lake house with our extended family. It was a quintessential summer family vacation. My 7 year old caught her first fish on the dock with her grandfather. My 9 year old mastered some paddling skills as she navigated the cove with great delight. We did some lake swims and SUPing in the early mornings. The lawn was the perfect spot for star gazing! The house design makes it easy to connect with family and have a little retreat and quiet time when needed. We were thrilled to be there and appreciated the quick answer to our questions. It was also great to use the kayaks and canoe to get out on the water. We hope to get back soon!!

This was our fourth vacation stay at your home! We enjoy it more each time we visit. Love the house and Inks is our favorite lake. The location of the home in a cove is perfect for swimming and kayaking. Thanks for sharing your home with us again. Looking forward to our next visit!

Beautiful as always. Has everything we need for our family. Even enjoyed a VHS movie while there- Spy Kids! 😂 We will be back next year!

This lake house is lovely, comfortable, and very well stocked. It has everything you need and then some. We had three kids with us and they loved playing in the lake and the small beach area at the bottom of the steps. Make sure to bring your fishing gear with you.

Loved it! Really enjoyed the location, quiet cove, and such a beautiful and well maintained property.

Great time, great place, will return.

We had a very relaxing and fun time!

We loved our stay in this home! The yard was nice and the location on the lake was quiet! My favorite perk was the boat dock is perfect for sitting out and enjoying the evening without the sun on us while we fished! 🎣

Absolutely wonderful property, even better hosts. Relaxing weekend of fishing. When we had a problem, the hosts were right on top of it and were so gracious. I'm nervous about telling the truth in this review, because they will get so busy I won't be able to schedule it for next time. Just book this property, you'll have a great stay. But, don't tell anyone else, OK?

We have stayed many times at the Talbots beautiful home on Inks Lake. This year was extra fun because the grands are now old enough to paddle around the cove in the kayaks and canoe. We did have an issue with the water in the home, but the Talbots were super responsive and sent a plumbing crew over immediately to resolve the issue. We look forward to returning for more fun in the sun!

We had a fantastic stay at this lake house! In addition to the consistently high water level that allowed for boating, canoeing, and fishing at our leisure, the house was well appointed with everything everyone needed for a long weekend getaway. Well-stocked DVDs, puzzles, and games were a fun, bonus surprise. All rooms were well appointed and the kitchen had everything our pro-chef needed to prepare Easter dinner and more. It was a lovely stay all around!

Great place.

The house is as beautiful as the location! The hosts left zero to no questions about where to find and how to use the amenities. This was the perfect quick getaway, we will be back!

Excellent location, beautiful and always very clean home. This is our third time renting this home and each stay as been unforgettable. Great sunrises and sunsets. I can’t say enough about this place.

Has it all.

Great spot on a very nice lake

Our family stays at this wonderful home every year, and we love it. The house is great, very up to date and spacious and has plenty of yard for family fun. We enjoy going out on the lake with the kayaks and fishing. The owners are quick to respond and are easy to work with. We highly recommend!!

As always we had a great stay! We have been staying at Talbots House, at least once a year, for a number of years and if never disappoints. Plenty of room and the house is well stocked with necessities. My mom is 87 and she has no problem getting around and loves to join us at the lake.

We had an awesome time at this property. It’s located on a quiet part of Inks Lake which makes for a great laid back vibe. The house is really beautiful and the decor is lovely.

Hosts and home are top notch and we keep coming back; this was our 3rd trip to enjoy this perfect spot on Inks Lake.

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at Richard and Nancy's place. We were 3 couples with two teenagers and had plenty of room. The house has everything we needed and the dock/lake access were super nice. We've been visiting Inks Lake for 15 years and this is one of our favorite places to stay. Highly recommend!

Another wonderful stay on Inks Lake! This beautiful property and home never disappoints. We love making family memories here.
