Absolutely perfect place to stay

We had a fantastic stay at the cabin. I cannot wait to stay again. The host was easy to communicate with-every part of our process from booking, to checking in, and then checking out was effortless. I highly recommend this property! It is in a beautiful neighborhood, has easy access to the great town of Alexandria, and is extremely clean and well cared for.

Great place for a girls getaway

This was perfect for our birthday girls getaway. The beautiful kitchen with large island was great for eating, playing games and cocktails. The back porch and fire pit were also a favorite. Owner was very responsive to questions. Alexandria is a great place to visit!

Beautiful Lake Home

Beautiful lake home with everything you need for a family to stay. We stayed during the winter months but this property would be amazing for the summer time. Upstairs is super private for a second family to stay. Highly recommend. The host was very helpful with all our questions.

Perfect get together

Four siblings and their spouses stayed two nights at this place. It was super clean, tastefully decorated, ticked every box. We could sit around the kitchen island or outside around the fire pit. One fished off the dock and caught four fish. Two took the kayaks out for around the lake. Each couple took turns with a meal. Again, a grill for the guy making steaks. Top notch appliances for egg bakes. Everything was there; only thing needed was ice. We hadn’t even departed and were already talking about next year here… Thank you for a great spot!!

Great spot for family vaca!

This was our first Vrbo experience, and we greatly enjoyed our stay! The property was very clean, updated and private. We spent most of our time outside, enjoying the peaceful lakeview and a bonfire. It was so nice to have a second bathroom and living room so that the family could spread out. Only improvement I could suggest would be clearing some of the reeds by the dock to provide easier lake/kayak access.
