This is my family's third year meeting somewhere half way between where we each live. This is by far the best place we have stayed yet. The house is more like a home than a vacation rental. The first morning we woke up to several deer standing in the front yard, and the last night a large group of deer going down to the water. The children ages 9, 6, 5, and 3 had a blast in the pool and had many games and movies to keep them busy when inside. Just can't say enough nice things about this lovely home. Thank you Sam and Sharon for sharing your home with us.

We spent this last week at one of the most relaxing homes I have ever rented. Very clean and homey. I cooked in all week and there was nothing I needed from the kitchen. They had everything. The house is very private. We took our boat for some fishing, but we could not pull ourselves from the pool. The pool was excellent. It was a little too hot to use the hot tub (outside humidity was terrible), but we were finally able to one night after a rain shower. The master bedroom with the hot tub out on the deck was very romantic. My husband and I were celebrating our 25 year anniversary. We took our 14 yr old daughter and her friend. They loved the house and the great selections of movies and games. If you are coming down for vacation, down waste the extra space for beach towels. They have plenty. Plenty of cleaning products. There is no false advertising here. And if you have any hesitation of it being a smoking friendly or pet friendly home, don't. There was no evidence of either. A very clean home, open spaces, great decks (5), private, quiet, terrific and clean pool, and a very cool fishing pier. The girls were not big fisherwomen, but by the end of the week they were begging to "hurry" up and go fishing. They were baiting their on hooks and taking off their own fish. We also were lucky enough to see an alligator one night up in the cove. 4 to 5 feet long. Very cool thing to see. If you have a boat, there is a private neighborhood launch dock that you can use for free. Dock the boat right down at your own private fishing pier and you are ready to head out dusk and dawn. I hope everyone has as much fun as we did. We had look at the mountains and the coast for a rental home and we found the best of both worlds in this home. Feels like a mountain lake cabin and it feels like a beach home with all of the palm trees. I knew I was exactly where I needed to be this last week. I needed peace and relaxation and privacy. I found all three here at the Lake House. Thank you Sharon and Sam. It was JUST PERFECT !!.

This is our 3rd visit to the lake house. We enjoyed each stay and the house had everything we needed. The pool and dock are great! We seem to be getting better at fishing. Fishing around the new dock at the end of the cove is great for bass. Thanks again!

This is an excellent locale for your stay. I brought my mother and aunt here too. My husband, myself and our dogs thoroughly enjoyed this home. It was truly welcoming. Everything that we needed was here. We could not have asked for more perfect hosts. Sam and Sharon deserve the greatest appreciation for opening their home to visitors. It is a country home that exudes ambience and hospitality. We truly enjoyed the dock and really loved the pool. We enjoyed a round of golf at the numerous nearby locations. Loved the home and absolutely hated to leave. If you choose to stay here, you will not be disappointed and you should treasure the home as if it is your own. One of the things that is really great about the home is there is a deck out every side of the home, top and bottom. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this location to anyone else. There is no false advertising here.

My family just spent two weeks at the lake house and had a blast. The setting is so relaxing, the pool is very nice and the house meets all your needs. We played games, watched movies and just relaxed the whole time. The home is well maintained and well equiped. If you are looking for a quiet, restful time this is the ticket!!!

Owner response:Please note date of stay was July 6, 2010, not 2008. Thank you

We absolutely loved our stay at the Lake House!! It was the most relaxing place we have been in quite a while. The house was very clean and everthing we needed was already there. We spent the majority of our time in the pool. My 4 year old daughter loved it. Sam & Sharon, thank you for sharing your home with us and we cannot wait until next time.

Sam and Sharon. thank you for sharing your lake house with our family. The kids loved the pool and the guys loved the dock. We caught a few small Bream and one turtle off the dock. Catch and release of course! We rented a boat, but had more fun swimming than fishing. The large soft shell turtle at the mouth of your inlet was interesting. Thanks again!
