      Amazing Eclipse Experience!
      What a spectacular way to experience the Great North American Eclipse in April 2024! This spot was beautiful and so peaceful. The decks and outdoor amenities are perfect for taking in sunrise, the lake, the birds, thunderstorms and all that this gorgeous place has to offer. Inside was tidy, spacious and well stocked. The beds and furniture were comfortable and welcoming. Brent was an excellent host, and communication and logistics were smooth. Thank tou!

      Great location
      We absolutely enjoyed the cabin on the lake. We even caught some fish! We rented a pontoon for the day and got to tie it up at the dock. Very convenient! The house was very clean and well stocked. They thought of everything! The grandkids enjoyed fishing on the dock as well and loved the game room. Let’s not forget about the view of the lake.. it has the most amazing view! We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone needing a relaxing vacay on the water!

      Bob Sandlin Lake House
      Our stay was perfect. My husband and I met my daughter and son in law. My husband caught several bass fish daily! The early fall weather was the perfect mix for nighttime fires/s’mores & our dog loved the lake swims. The details covered by the host are outstanding. Everything you need for a magical family trip. We will be back!!!

      Another Great Stay
      The weather wasn't kind to us this trip but we still had a great time. There's something about just being at the lake that provides peace and serenity. Staying at the Lakeside Getaway always does that for me.

      Annual Family Lake Trip
      This is the 7th year our family has taken a fall lake trip. For many years we visited the same location and loved it, then it was sold. Last year we tried our first NEW location, and were disappointed. So this year finding this gem was truly a gift. The house, the lot, the dock, the lake all hit it out of the park. Our family was sad to leave and so looking forward to returning sooner rather than next fall.
