A Week at the Lake

Every summer the family takes a week to go fishing, swimming, boating, and floating. Pharoah's Retreat was a good choice this year. Plenty of room, nice dock, and a great recommendation for a pontoon boat. Caught fish, swam at the dock, and wandered the area. Great time had by all.

Great house!

5 adults and 4 children stayed here and there was plenty of room for all. The bunk room was nice for the kids. The beds were all comfortable, the kitchen was very nice, and bathrooms were updated. Having the pontoon boat available was a perk as well. We rented it two days. Communication with Allison was awesome!!! She got back with me quickly if I had any questions. I especially loved the link for the app that gives you wonderful information about the house and area. Will definitely stay here again and rent with this company!

Awesome Family Time at Egypt Lake

We booked Egypt Lake Cabin for my father's 90th Birthday. It's almost 1/2 way for each family to meet for this special occasion. We loved this house/cabin. Very spacious, very clean, with a full main level and another lower level with a complete living room, and walk out door that leads down to the lake. My husband enjoyed several days of fishing, catching large bass and more blue gill then he could count. He loved it! There is plenty to do in the area, for shopping, Marion is about 20 minutes away, small grocery store in Goreville, State Park within 20 minutes. There is a KOA Campground less than one block away, for extended family. There are lots of places to walk, and the cabin had two kayaks for guests to use. We are hoping to make this an annual trip. We have stayed at several VRBO's throughout the years and this one is right on the top of the list. We would not hesitate to recommend it to family and friends.

Really pretty property with several amenities to make your stay enjoyable. Cozy and comfortable and felt like a home rather than a rental. We hosted some local family for a cookout and had everything we needed to prepare a big dinner. Neighbors were very friendly. The kayaks were a great addition as well.

Having the boat available to rent made our stay even more fun!! The owner was great and communication with her was easy and she was very responsive when we needed to ask questions.

Great location on Lake of Egypt! The house is an open floor plan which we enjoyed. The two decks also made for great relaxing areas. The beds were comfortable, bedrooms had plenty of closet space.

Beautifully Renovated House on the Lake of Egypt.

House was very clean and the location was nice. We were there in the offseason but were lucky enough to have a pontoon boat day. We were able to enjoy the kayaks too. Great little spring break! Thank you Allison for your quick responses to our inquiries. Highly recommend this getaway escape!

We had a great stay…… Allison was wonderful to work with and would respond to my questions right away…..WiFi was down in the area the day we arrived so entry code didn’t work and she replied within 2 minutes giving us the back-up code…… house was clean and roomy and loved sitting on the decks having coffee in the morning!!! Only suggestion I have in this is from several homes we’ve rented from VRBO in the past that have done this and it was very helpful…… place little labels above each light switch it does make things easier!!’ 🤷‍♀️😂 would rent this home again!!

Great lakeside home.

Our family celebrates our Christmas in July at the lake each year. This year we chose this property to house our kids and grandkids all in one place. This became the gathering spot for our entire weekend. It worked out very well. The amount of space was perfect. The kitchen and dining area are perfect for a large group. We highly recommend.
