Vacation Rentals by Owner

A Vacation Paradise

Date of Stay: 10/28/10 Review Submitted: 11/08/10

This house, with all the extras, would put the Ritz Carton to shame without the high rates. We could have picked better weather, but our 3yr. old granddaughter made it enjoyable. She had her first boat ride, in freezing conditions, caught fish from the dock, and that made it worthwhile. We couldn't believe all the things that were left for our use. My family would highly reccommend this house to anyone. After over 40yrs. of renting homes at Lake Oconee, this is by far our best experience.

We had a great time! The house worked perfectly for our family of 5, another couple that joined us, and our two dogs. Our daughter truly loved her birthday get away. We enjoyed lots of swimming off the dock with the kids and dogs. Owners were very responsive and great to work with. Looking forward to returning in the future.

My family enjoyed every minute of our stay at your house. It was clean, comfortable, spacious and was everything we could have asked for and more. We loved hanging out at the dock and had lots of room for our bass boat and a rented pontoon. Thank you so much.

Great weekend at the lake!

We had a great time at your lake house. It was absolutely perfect for 4 couples and our 3 dogs. The location on the lake is great, being away from the busiest areas on the south end. The dock was wonderful and the house was equipped with pretty much everything from lake toys to kitchen supplies to board games that you could ever need. Everyone commented on what a great location it was and what a wonderful time they had. Thank you so much for letting us stay at your place and we hope to return some time soon.

What an awesome place to stay! Bob and Susan were incredible to work with. Very hands on and attentive to your every need. You need not bring a thing with you except your food, fishing gear, if you fish, and yourself because if you can think of something you might need don't bother to bring it because they've already thought of it and have it on hand. There's even a map in the garage showing you how to get to the many important places like Publix Grocery, Walmart, Walgreens and resturants. Like I said they think of everything to make your stay as relaxing as possible. Thanks Guys. There was plenty of room for all of us, 2 adults and the 4 married kids coming and going at different times due to work. The back porch was the absolute best. With it's high backed chairs and extra large over hang from the roof you could sit outside and watch it rain and never get wet or watch the sun just slip away into the water. The dock, well WoW is all I can say about that. We parked our boat at the dock and were constantly going to check out a new adventure or pulling someone on a tube or ski. On the night of July 3rd we went out in the middle of the channel to watch the fire works which were exciting for all to see. Great vacation, we hope to be able to use this wonderful place again soon.

Superb Family Lakehouse Retreat

Guest: Satisfied Travelers (Watkinsville, Ga.)
Date of Stay: 06/16/10 Review Submitted: 07/09/10

We had a wonderful extended family trip at your lake house. We enjoyed boating, fishing, tubing, and relaxing. My elderly father found the shaded deck to be a very comfortable spot to view our varioius activites. The house was clean, spacious, and well stocked. The garage bedroom gave one of our families a little extra privacy. It was also nice not to worry about my sister's dogs on your property. My mother is already planning our next visit!!

My best friend was turning 40 and we found the perfect place to celebrate with our wives. The owners were responsive and prompt, the house has everything you will ever need and the views of the lake were great. We will book again for sure.

Beautiful Lake Home

Guest: Sandra* (Largo, FL )
Date of Stay: 04/03/10 Review Submitted: 04/12/10

This is a lovely 4 bedroom/3 bath home on Lake Oconee. The house is very clean, well equipped and nicely decorated. But the best part is the large deck out back overlooking the lake. There is plenty to do, boating, fishing, swimming, golfing, sightseeing and just relaxing. My family had a great time and we look forward to coming back soon.

My Husband and I met our Son and his family, who are from Covington, Ga. for a wonderful week at your Lake House. The weather was great. Your house was so nice. Furnished wonderfully and so clean. Close to everything. We did a lot of boating, swimming and fishing. Everyone had a wonderful time. We hope to come again next year.

This is a wonderful lake home. There are three comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in the main house and another bedroom, sitting room and bathroom above the detached garage. The pictures on the website do not fully describe how great this place is! There is fishing gear, an extra refrig/freezer in the garage, large deck, large dock with picnic table and umbrella, propane grill, etc. All the comforts of home. It was so clean and easy to relax in. We will definitely try to rent it again!!

We stayed in the house at the beginning of May. We had my daughter, parents, uncle, and cousin with us. We had lots of fun. The view was awesome. The guys had lots of fun on the lake with the seadoos. It was nice to have a dock for them and the boat launch was just minutes away.

We spent a wonderful weekend at Oconee and your house is perfect. The living space is very cozy, the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need and the bedrooms are spaced out to give lots of privacy. Everything is very neat and clean. I saved the best for last - the huge deck that overlooks the lake with an incredible view.

You were our first renters so we're very glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Was there anything amiss we should correct? Any suggestions for improving the offering? Have a wonderful season up North and stay in touch. Bob -----Original Message----- From: M&G Sent: Thursday, April 10, 2008 11:25 AM To: Bob The deposit amount is fine with us. I forgot about the exchange; for a while our Canadian dollar was higher. We loved the house. In fact, we wondered if it might be available to rent for the month of March next year. We can't commit to it just yet, but we could keep in touch with you and make plans later. Thanks for everything. M&G

We had a good time, caught alot of fish but did not keep any. I think that the cleaning lady will have an easy job. I hit a stump and damaged my SS prop, but I went to Crowe marine and bought a new aum. one for us to use while we were here. I am glad you had the tools because I had to borrow a couple of things. We used one gas can and put back in the garage. Thanks again for you hospitality.
