We enjoyed our stay, the home was excellent and enough space for our family and friends. The dock was far the best we have ever had, enough space to spread out. Shaded area was a plus. Can’t say enough about this home. We do plan to return!

The lake house and surrounding grounds were nice and roomy. Some of the home features were dated and not completely functional (front porch light out, no functional driveway and walkway lighting, ceiling fans that were too noisy to operate at a reasonable speed, no convenient spot to launch a kayak/paddleboard, the dock house furniture was unclean, cobwebs throughout the dock area, and no window screens throughout the home). The rental fee was overpriced for the condition of many of the amenities and the fact that parts of the property have obviously been un-used/un-kept for long periods of time.

Race Weekend Stay

Our group had a great time staying at this peaceful lake property. The lake is so quiet, and it was great to take a swim after a long day at VIR! All the drivers enjoyed a home cooked meal, and reviewing race video on the various TV options. Great accommodations.

We spent most of our week relaxing under the covered dock area. We spent lots of time in the water and the kids fished off the dock. House was well stocked and plenty of space for our family.

Secret gem in Semora NC!

We had a group of 12, two families, for 5 days and we never ran out of things to do at this house! The way the rooms are spaced, and having two kitchens made it a dream stay for so many people! The lake is beautiful and not too busy. You can float, paddle board, and kayak safely. We will absolutely book again and again, We rent many, many VRBO's each year and this is one of the top homes that we have enjoyed!
