Hi Rick, we would like to thank you for your hospitality during our stay at your Burke's Landing property. We loved the home, the huge yard and dock. All of the amenities were there, firewood, grill, tubes for the lake, even spices for cooking and so much more that our trip so enjoyable especially having renters next door with a daughter the same age as ours. We look forward to returning and would love to rent both properties with friends sometime next year. Also, good luck on your upcoming tournaments and we look forward to hearing more of your stories and Craig definately enjoyed the striper filets. Take care, The Van Sciver's Jen, Craig, Maddie & Truman

My family and I stayed here during Labor Day weekend. The view from the property is outstanding! My children loved running around, swimming, and fishing. We thoroughly enjoyed the place and found it very comfortable and relaxing. Rick even came by to see if we needed anything! You can't go wrong with this choice!

My wife, our dog and I stayed at the trailer on the property for three nights. We enjoyed our brief stay and plan to return next year for a 3-4 week stay. As the description says everything is provided including a nicely equiped kitchen and the ability to grill using either charcoal or gas. Great place for a family get away.

My wife and I stayed at Burke's landing for 12 nights in September 09. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. The lakefront setting is virtually unbeatable, and we loved the surrounding area too. Rick was always available if we needed any help.We had a great time and would definitely consider returning here in the future.

We stayed at the Burkes landing property and we had a wonderful time.Rick was absouetly right, everything you needed was at your fingertips. I highly recommend this place for a quiet peaceful get away. Rick came by twice a day to see if you needed anything, and if you did well he was quick to make sure you had everything you needed.

We have stayed at Burke’s Landing for the past two summers and have had a WONDERFUL time. Rick is a great host and keeps the property well maintained. The cottage has all the necessities for a relaxing getaway. We rented the pontoon boat the first summer and enjoyed it. Our second summer we brought our own boat and Rick’s docks were thoroughly equipped to maintain our boat. Our dog Dusty gives the place two paws up and looks forward to coming back!

We had a wonderful stay at Burkes Landing. Rick and Randy had everything spotless and set-up for our arrival. They are great hosts. Everything that you could think of was provided to make for a worry free relaxing stay. There isnt anything I would change. Perfect for a person bringing along a boat, nicely built dock with easy access and even power for chargers. We will be back, but we'll be bringing our Black Lab along this time. THANKS!

This was our 1st trip to Burke's Landing and will not be our last. Our family of 5 had a wonderful time. The cottage had all the comforts of home. DirectTV, AC, everything you need to help enjoy your vacation. We also enjoyed the use of the pontoon. Ran very well, plenty of room for the whole family. Came in handy for baiting the hooks for the kids and all those shellcrackers we caught. (Sorry again about losing the gas cap Rick) Rick was very accessible and checked in regularly to make sure you had everything you needed. Thanks again Rick! We look forward to seeing you next year.
