The owner was terrific, beginning to end -- helpful, engaged, and thoughtful throughout. The location overlooking the lake is beautiful and gave a great view of the gorgeous sunset each evening. We fished each day and sure got a workout climbing up and down the steep hill! The beds were super comfortable and the home had everything a family could ask for.

Good location. Floors were dirty and sticky, but we stayed outside mostly because we came for the lake not the home. Our grandkids really enjoyed it.

I hate to hear this, we take pride in making sure our property is very clean for both guests and our family. I'm hoping this is an isolated instance, maybe due to the heavier rain and weather prior to your arrival our cleaning team tracked this in during their work or some floor areas needed a more detailed cleaning that were missed. We will make sure and address this for future guests. Thank you for your helpful feedback. I hope you had a fun time at the lake and enjoyed your time out there. -Stuart and Amanda

Location was convenient for our activities. Was a little disappointed that the view of the lake from the deck was not as much as we thought it would be (trees were in the way). The house was very clean and well arranged with the master suite being off the kitchen and the other bedrooms being on the other side since we had a toddler and baby with us. Would use again.

We enjoyed our stay. House was very clean and was well stocked with cooking supplies. Has a view of the lake from the back deck. Was a little tricky to back my 22’ pontoon boat into driveway, but got it done. 2nd time to back in was easier and still had room to park 3 more pickups in driveway

A wonderful fun and relaxing weekend!

The home had so many lovely and interesting spaces both inside and out to enjoy. The back porch opened out to the beautiful tree filled landscape and lake. Swimming in the cove was yet another peaceful and fun space for the famiy to spend time together. We all want to come back again!

Amazing week

This home is gorgeous, lots of windows and natural light. This place met everyone's needs. It comfortably slept 8 people, the place never felt crowded. The scenery from the patio is beautiful, the sunroom was perfect in the morning with coffee. This place had everything. We can't wait to go back.

Best Choice Whitney Lake House

Comfortable, Homely and Spacious, well decorated in a lake house theme, good sheets and towels.Property is Maintained ExcellentAlmost no need to bring much. Well kept and clean. Inside and outside, large wrap around porch on lakeside comfortable for large gatherings. Lots of beautiful plants and landscaping all well kept. So much more, my family enjoyed our stay and will do it again soon. Best lake house choice in Whitney with view and actual water access.

Great Stay!

We had a great time at Cliffside. The house was clean and fit our needs. The master bedroom bedding was very plush and we slept great. There were cardinals greeting us in the morning out on the screened in patio. It is kind of hard to find and none of the outside lights were on when we arrived, had it not been dark and raining it might have been easier to see. The kitchen was well stocked and we found the book with restaurants and shopping locations very helpful.

We are so pleased that you had a nice vacation at the lake. Thank you for bringing the lighting concern to our attention. I can see where a nighttime arrival without good lighting could make it a little difficult to find our lake house. We have recently addressed this. Thanks again for this great feedback. -Stuart

Scenic views and lake access

After looking for quite some time, we finally found this property. It is one of the few that has great views from elevation and also lake access (although it is somewhat of a climb). Kitchen is well equipped and the decor is perfect for a lakehouse. We were able to back a boat trailer into the driveway but it is not for the novice. Lake Whitney is beautiful and not far from Waco and Hillsboro. Whitney is a small town and has super friendly people. Can't wait to come back!

We really enjoyed this property!

This was a great area to stay on Lake Whitney. The house was very clean and full stocked with all necessities. Kitchen had everything you would need. Beds were all comfortable too. The owner Stuart is great. He answered all questions and gave multiple suggestions! It is a bit of a steep walk down to the cove, but we were able to manage fine. We really enjoyed fishing down there despite the fact that we didn’t catch anything. The water level on the lake was really high during our visit so the dam was open making a kayak trip impossible. We will definitely do that when we return next time.

Perfect!

Our stay at Cliffside was perfect. It felt very welcoming the moment we turned in the driveway. Here are some of the things about Cliffside that made our time so enjoyable: •A beautiful view of the lake! •The quiet. •Plenty of places to gather together and spots to be alone for a time, both indoors and outdoors. . •Comfortable beds and furniture, room for growing teens to sprawl. •A well stocked kitchen, just bring your groceries and you are set to prepare meals at “home”. •The welcome basket, filled with eclipse treats for us. •The chess board! •Everything was clean. •We found BBQ and the best brownie sundaes ever close by. •Being April when we visited, the Bluebonnets and other wild flowers were fabulous. I could go on and on, but I will end this review with a 5 star rating. We loved our time spent at Cliffside!

Great Getaway!

This was a great weekend getaway from the big city! It was bigger than what we needed as a couple, but offered us flexibility in our stay. Decor is very eclectic and has that family heritage lake house vibe. We enjoyed the the outdoor deck in the cooler mornings during a early Texas heat wave! Bring you bug spray as it was a must in the early June evenings! We did have to walk down to the lake shoreline to get the full sunset views due to the matured trees were blocking the view. This was the place to be at sunset! Beautiful cove on the lake! I got to go fishing along the shoreline! No catches in the evening but I was happy to catch a nice Striper and a Largemouth bass the next morning! The house was comfortable and clean and well stocked with essentials. (Thankful for the pizza cutter in the drawer!) But make sure you done forget your shampoo and a bar of soap as there was no hotel sized freebies available. Overall a great getaway destination! Thanks again!

Glad that you all had a nice get away. I took your advice on making sure future guests have plenty of hotel sized shampoo and soap bars. I hate that we missed that on your stay. -Stuart
