Relaxing getaway

This peaceful lake side property was clean, thoughtfully stocked and a wonderful place to relax for the weekend. We enjoyed coffee on the dock listening to birds each morning, and kayaking in the afternoon. And spent our evenings around the large fire pit.

A Peaceful Retreat

I was looking for something quiet and peaceful to celebrate my husbands birthday. It was a great location, very peaceful, and right on the lake that allowed my husband time to do his favorite hobby - fishing. Will definitely be back again.

Peace and quiet

This property was well kept and perfect for our family getaway. The lake access and amenities is what sold me but the cottage was a plus, it felt like home. My wife loved the kitchen and home decor and I loved the deck and fire pit areas. We will definitely stay again.

Wonderful place

This place was a great spot for us to stay while visiting family in Texas. Enjoyed the decks, kayaks, and paddle boat as well as the fire pit. Only negative is that with the hard water in the area you have to use a lot of bottled water and there isn't any recycling. Nothing that this place can help, but perhaps knowing that I can come better prepared if we were to stay here again. Owner was very communicative and thought of everything. Truly a lovely place.

We had a fantastic time during our stay at this property! The home was not only clean and well-maintained but also thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed to feel comfortable and at ease.One of the highlights of our trip was being able to spend quality time with our oldest son. The cozy and inviting atmosphere of the home made it the perfect setting for family meals, conversations, and just relaxing together. The location was ideal—quiet and peaceful, yet conveniently close to everything we wanted to explore.The hosts were attentive and responsive, ensuring we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay.

Everything was fantastic! This VRBO had more pots and pans, kitchen, utensils, and a full spice rack, which I have never seen before in a rental.The deck and lake are picturesque. It wasn’t quite cool enough for a fire, but the fire pit is perfectly situated beneath the stars.All in all five stars aren’t enough to give this property! I can’t wait to go back.

Absolutely enjoyed the weekend, even with a little rain. Will be booking this place several times a year! The house is extremely well kept and comfortable. Had a great time playing darts on the back porch. The fire pit area was amazing in the evening. Enjoyed taking the kayaks out with my son to go fishing.
