I take my pontoon in/out but I always have a person help guide me in so I don't snag the boat or damage the fence. The gate area is well lit too. We had 3 trucks with fishing boats side-by-side recently....plenty of parking space...just be careful at the gate...thx! Bill

They did a a great job with this lake house! Everything we could possibly need or forgot to bring with this was completely stocked for our use, and the property was very clean with everything sorted. The view of the lake was incredible and we even caught a catfish to cook and enjoy. One of the best lake houses I have stayed at to date!

We loved our stay. The house is perfect. The host is helpful and kind. He went out of the way to make us comfortable. We love Shelby ( the dog). She is the sweetest. We are definitely coming back in the summer! The beds are comfortable and the house is clean. However, the house has a casual feel. We weren’t afraid to allow the kids to play.

A perfect lakeside getaway

We had the most incredible time at this lake house! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the peaceful setting, stunning views, and thoughtful touches throughout the home. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and fully stocked with everything we could possibly need. The host was responsive, kind, and clearly takes great pride in this home—it shows in every detail. We’ve stayed at many vacation rentals, but this one is truly special. It’s the kind of place you want to come back to year after year.Thank you for sharing this slice of paradise with us!

Birthday Boys Weekend

We live locally in the Bonham area and we were looking for a stay-cay for my son’s 14th birthday party with his buddies - this location fit the occasion perfectly! Owner hung a “Happy Birthday” decor sign for a personal touch & I really appreciated the sentiment. 10 out of 10 recommend! Crappie fishing at the dock and the sunsets were awesome! The boys had an amazing extended wkend and we can’t wait to come back for a longer stay. Thanks Bill!
