Liked: Check-in, location
Furniture was cheap and uncomfortable. The outside of the house was not well maintained. The grill is on its last leg. The fishing was good, neighborhood is peaceful and full of wildlife.
The area is a beautiful neighborhood, and the deer population was a bonus! The house was very warm and inviting for our family. The property is very well kept as well as the dock on the lake. We do plan to rent again for a longer stay next time.
We had a relaxing time. The house was nice and clean and just as described. The neighborhood was quiet. We caught several fish from the pier. Would rent this house again.
Lake Fork Waterfront Retreat Great Views and Dock for Fishing
Lake Fork waterfront retreat had wonderful views from every room in the house. The Dock extended far enough over Lake Fork we caught several fish. Birds were gliding over the lake as a nature refuge. We went blueberry picking at a local farm and enjoyed the local culture.
We had a wonderful time at this house. Great location, quiet, lots of deer running around and friendly neighbors. We were there for some fishing and loved the ability to tie up to the dock and run in for lunch. Lots of places to sit, relax and enjoy the outdoors. About a 10 minute drive to Emory, TX for some great BBQ and Tex-Mex. Nice grocery store in town as well.
House was perfect. We enjoyed the stay. Boat lift and boat dock worked great. Fishing was better for crappie... hard for bass, but I know the lake is rebounding from years of drought. Plenty of water now.
This property is the best ! We've been doing short term rentals since covid, about 4 yrs now and this by far was the very best hands down. Location, cleanliness and perfect amenities! 5 star rating without a doubt!! ❤️ my grandkids did not want to leave lol 😆
This location was a beautiful place to stay with family and friends! Check in was easy, plenty of room for everyone, clean space and the neighborhood was very nice! We saw deer on the neighbor’s lawn, by the lake and on the way to the house. There was plenty of fish biting when we fished off the dock and we were also able to swim and the kayaks were super fun as well. We had so much fun and will definitely book again when we come back to the area.
The property was clean, comfortable, and everything we hoped it would be. We were not fans of streaming TV, but that could be because we are old :). We will be back.

Thanks. Happy to know you all had a good time. Welcome back
This visit was primarily for my wife and I, although our daughter brought our 3 grandchildren to visit over the weekend. Less than 2 hours from home, this was the perfect getaway! The house was very nice, and the amenities were also nice. Plenty of room to relax and enjoy this beautiful home in a quiet area. We enjoyed watching the birds and deer, and the serenity of the setting, with nice views of the sunrise and sunset! The kids enjoyed kayaking and fishing, even if only for a few minutes, while the weather was pleasant. We would definitely like to have another visit during warmer months. We can highly recommend this location!

Thanks for the kind review. Glad you enjoyed the stay and the serenity. Happy you liked kayaking and fishing
Our family enjoyed our time at this home. The inside is clean and decorated nicely. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet as well. We got to see mama doe and their fawn, and several little bucks, right in the yard. You can tell the outside of the home is in the process of getting some new fencing and updating, so I hope we get to come back for a visit and see the finished product. Very peaceful.
House is very clean and nice but a little dated. Repair required us to leave cabinet open for drying. Area is quiet and nice but neighbor dogs continually on the property and no clean up of dog poop. Outside is not cleaned often - dock is nice but dirty and cobwebs - outdoor seating area nice but dirty with bird poop - lawn mowed morning after we arrived and because it was so long it left a lot of debris and looked a little ragged. Lake is okay but muddy and dirty and we were warned it can be unsafe!
