  Thank you so much for this wonderful experience! We visited from Miami FL. and although the ride was eternal it was well worth it. We enjoyed every moment to the fullest, and being from a hectic city the peace was much needed. We found ourselves wanting to stay longer and will surly be back. The view was MAGNIFICENT! and all of it was. Thank you from our families to yours!

  Thank you for the wonderful stay in your BEAUTIFUL lake house. It was so peaceful, and quiet, with Fabulous sunsets were the best!!! We came for graduation to watch my husband get handed his PHD from FSU. This was convienant for our families to stay together and not pay a fortune for a hotel in Tallahassee. Thanks again Ken and Rita, Morrison IL

  Tom and Elvia - We just wanted to let you know we had a terrific time at your house on Lake Seminole. We found it comfortable, spacious and well equipped. We really liked the screened in porch. We (including our cat Lily) spent a lot of time out there. Great lake view! Your covered dock was a plus for me. I didn’t have to cover my boat at any time and felt it was safe and I had no worries leaving it in the water. Although I didn’t catch my elusive 8 lb. bass, I enjoyed my time on the water. I saw plenty of Gators, especially in March when the weather warmed up. We found the people of the south most hospitable and found everything we needed in Bainbridge. Everyone was so friendly. All our guests had a good time and they too, felt comfortable in your home. Thanks for being so accommodating and flexible so my mother-in-law could convalesce without much difficultly. It was nice to get away for the winter, except we didn’t have much of a winter in Illinois this year! The 3 months went by way to quick.

  We had a fantastic time. We met our daughter and son-in-law and enjoyed the peaceful time we had. The lake was fantastic, and the home we rented was beautiful and very clean. The view from the back porch was breath taking. I highly recommend this place. Very quiet and peaceful. Thanks for everything. We will definately be back, I am sure of that.

  The view from the front porch is amazing!! I could have sat in the chair all day,just for the views of the lake,but the weather was a little too chilly do that,maybe next year.The house was clean and has everything you would need.The house has more room then the pictures describe,we had 7 in our party,and had plenty of room for all of us.The whole experince was wonderful,the Imhol's are great to deal with,just a phone call away.We are still talking about whole experince,and how it was nice not having to stay a cramped motel room and we could all stay together instead.Can not wait to come back to the lake house next year.

  My wife and I stayed here for a week in mid Oct 2010 when I was here for a fishing tournament. The house was very clean and well appointed. The owner had just about everything there you could need, towels, toilet paper, paper towels, plenty of flashlights, even extra batteries for the TV remote. It was just us and the dog this week, but there is plenty of room for several more people.It's back off the road a few hundred yards, so you get the impression you're very secluded, although there are several houses up and down the street. We saw plenty of wildlife, deer, turkeys, armadillos, all kinds of water fowl and even a couple of small gators down in the water. Parking was great, if 3 or 4 tournament fishermen stayed there, there would be plenty of room to park all the boats. It's very convenient to Wingate's for launching and really a pretty easy ride into Bainbridge proper. Whenever we fish Seminole again, we will try to stay here. Whether you're coming for a tournament or just a family getaway, this house will do the trick.

  Owner response: Thank you so much for visiting us and taking such good care of our house and property, we were flattered that you choose our retreat for your stay and happy that you had a pleasant experience, we really appreciate your comments and that you will think about us for your future trip to Lake Seminole.

  My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Jumping Bass Lake over the Memorial Day holiday. It was very clean and very comfy with all the amenities that we needed for our stay. The big covered porch was great and we really also liked the big covered dock. It was nice to sit there and enjoy the breeze off the lake. Mr. and Mrs. Imhof were a pleasure to do business with and we look forward to our next stay at their lake house.
