We stayed at Lake Beach House for a week in February 2012 and had a wonderful stay. The location of the house is perfect. The beach is a short 2-minute walk and,as it’s away from the large condominium developments, the beach was very quiet - at times we had it all to ourselves. Downtown New Smyrna Beach and all its amenities is only a 15-minute drive away and very easy to get to. The house is large with plenty of space and everything you could need. It easily accommodated our family gathering (with three generations of our family) and we particularly enjoyed sitting out on the deck, listening to the ocean waves, and making use of the grill. The booking process was very simple. The owner was responsive to queries and I appreciated the option of paying by credit card and the extra security that comes with that. The security deposit was refunded promptly following our stay. I have already recommended this house to friends and family and believe it offers excellent value for money given its size and location.

My family had a fabulous vacation over New Years at the Lakes beach house. The beach is literally steps away, what an beautiful and quiet amazing beach! The kids went out every morning to collect shells and watch the dolphins. The house came equipped with everything we needed and then some, clean, simple and wonderfully laid out. I would recommend it to anyone looking to stay in the New Smyrna area and we certainly hope to return ourselves. In fact we wished we didn't have to go home.

We spent a few quality days at the Beach House with our adult children & grandchildren and also celebrated our granddaughters 4th birthday. Everything was just as described, you literally could walk in with a few personal items, some groceries and have a relaxing beach vacation. The beach was naturally beautiful and almost desolate. We booked on very short notice and the owners were very accommodating. Other than the beach, we didn't venture out much but did bring in seafood from one of the restaurants the owners suggested and it was fabulous! We hope to go back again next fall if not before and would definitely recommend this property.

Great House, Great Location!

Great house, great location! I recently stayed at the Lake Beach house as a combination family vacation, fishing, surfing trip. The house was everything we hoped for. Clean and well maintained. No suprises. It is everything they say it is and more. With the beach just steps from the house it was easy to surf anytime you wanted. There are actually two good surf breaks to either side of the beach acsess. No crowds. Most local surfers stay to the north end of the beach. The beach is the finest in the area for family fun. If you plan to traval to this area with children the no drive section of beach is a must. Kids can run free and you have no worries about their safety. As far as fishing goes, You could not ask for a better location for shallow water fishing. Bring your boat and launch less than a mile from the house at a free ramp at the entrance to the National Sea Shore park. There is also a bait shop right down the street with everything you need. Dont have a shallow water boat, no problem. Hire one of the local guides or rent kayaks a block away at JB's fish camp. There is great restraunts and a grocery store very close by. All in all it's a great house and great location. Enjoy!

Great House

The house was everything on the description and more. The house truly just steps to the beach. In addition it is a very central location to everything in this area of Flordia, the space center, the races in Daytona. The restaurants were great and very well priced. The small town of Deland is really a nice place to spend the day. The property was very clean and well furnished.

Thank you for the wonderful accommodations. The house was perfect for us and we had a great time. The proximity to the beach was great and the beach was ideal with hardly any other people around. Great value

Our stay was everything and more than what we expected. The house was so comfortable and the beach was great. Everyone commented on the comfort of the beds and the pool table added a lot of enjoyment to our vacation. The deck provided a great atmosphere for morning coffee and evening relaxation. We hope to be returning next year.

We stayed at The Lake house Aug 1-8, 2009. We had a wonderful time. The beach is very close by and our 4 kids loved to play in the waves. The house is very clean, spacious and has everything you need. We certainly can recommend this beach house.

We stayed at the Lake's beach house from June 27, 2009 - July 3, 2009. What a great place and location. We have four kids and they had a blast in the house watching movies and playing pool. The beach is only a few steps away. The deck is great and provides some nice views…we even had the opportunity to see a rocket launch. The dolphins were fun to watch in the morning as we walked the beach. Everything you need is there!

We had a wonderful time at the beach house, it was clean and comfortable. The set up was perfect, the kids had their own space downstairs with the pool table and the big TV. The neighborhood was very quiet and the beach was practically empty most of the days we were there. I would highly recommend this rental, it was a great value.

We absolutely loved the Lakes' beach house! We could hear the waves crashing on the shore as we sat on the balcony in the morning eating breakfast. JB's Fish Camp is a great restaurant that is located within walking distance. The Lakes' house was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. I can't wait to go back!

You will not be disappointed if you choose to vacation here. The Lake's Beachhouse was exactly what we were looking for. Everything you need is provided. Private, clean, roomy. We watched the dolphins jumping in the ocean from the deck in the morning. Don't miss the awesome Cape Canaveral National Seashore Park right up the street. No more shopping the websites for us next trip. We will return to the Lake's House!
