We are returning guests and will definitely be back again! It’s such a beautiful, clean place to enjoy with our grown kids. The garage ping pong tournament is the perfect finishing touch to a wonderful weekend. Can’t go wrong, beautiful setting and a home equipped with everything you have in your own kitchen to make incredible family meals.

What an incredible place to stay. The house is modern but cozy, there is so much space. The outdoor space is amazing. They have so many ways to entertain including paddle boards that my 12 year old loved. There is a wonderful doc that makes a nice place to fish or just sit and have a cup of coffee or wine and enjoy the view. I would highly recommend this place. The host was extremely helpful and responsive. Though everything was so perfect we didn't even need to bother them. If I had to pick one thing that was not perfect, I would say the water pressure in master bathroom was not great but have had worse. 5 stars great place will definitely come again.

We loved it here. The house was beautiful and spacious inside and out! House & kitchen were stocked with everything we needed. Communication with the host was great! We enjoyed fishing on the covered dock. They let us bring our dogs which made the trip for us. Great deck, yard & lake access. Close to hiking at the state park. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

We stayed here for a birthday & Mother’s Day weekend, and this home was wonderful for our group of five women. The house is beautifully decorated, but still feels warm, comfortable, and lived-in, in the best way. It never felt overly fancy or like you were afraid to touch anything. It was just peaceful, inviting, and easy to settle into immediately. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath layout was perfect for us, with plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. The bunk room was especially nice because the bunk beds are full-sized and very comfortable, not like typical camp-style bunks. The mattresses were great, and everything was clean and well-kept.The kitchen was one of the highlights for us. It was stocked with everything you would need to cook meals comfortably. It really felt thoughtfully prepared for guests. I especially loved waking up to the lake and birds singing. The view and outdoor atmosphere was incredible. The grounds were perfectly maintained, and we loved being able to walk barefoot in the grass. It was great that although the property has a peaceful country feel, restaurants and stores were still just minutes away. The only small thing I would suggest is possibly adding a Keurig. The standard coffee maker worked, but not cleaned properly. So instant coffee it was. That said, it was a very minor issue. Overall, this home was beautiful, comfortable, peaceful, and exactly what we needed! We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again.

First of all the property is way better than the pictures, we brought our boat and had plenty of room to swim and fish off of the dock. The extra refrigerator in the garage was a bonus for ice and drinks, the kitchen was well stocked for all cooking needs although we grilled on the back patio most of the time. Our family of five had a great time and can't wait to return! The owners were very easy to deal with from time of booking to checkout! I highly recommend.

What makes this property unique

A peaceful and picturesque setting surrounded by trees, with plenty of room for sun and fun. Located just 2 hours from Dallas on Lake Bob Sandlin. The home is situated within a no-wake zone cove, making it ideal for swimming directly off the dock. This lake is fantastic for fishing and recreational boating.
