House was very cute and comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and really nice. The property was great, we enjoyed the backyard, the screened in porch, back porch and hot tub. Unfortunately the lake levels were low which we already had expected, so I can’t hold that against the host. There are many opportunities to still get some fishing in off-site. It was very clean and the host was friendly and responsive.

Yes! Even when the lake is low, there are nearby areas to access for fishing/swimming/boating. I’m glad y’all found some. We loved hosting. Feel free to come back any time!
We had a wonderful getaway at this property. It was clean and spacious - it would be perfect for two couples and a bunch of kids. Communication was great. Our dog enjoyed the fenced yard (but if your dog is tiny or jumps over fences it may not keep your dog in). We enjoyed the lake view and hot tub. Something to know: as of March 2026 the lake level is quite low.

We absolutely loved this house. The neighborhood was peaceful & friendly. We spent lots of time in the back year in the deck or in the sitting area with a TV, the screen room, and the hot tub! My son loved the extra bedroom in the garage, and we loved the bed & rain shower in the master bedroom. We were down fo spring break, and to visit our son at TVCC. We visited Triple N Ranch Winery, Russel Stovers in Corsicana, the fish hatchery, and the aboretom botanical garden, & the TVCC rodeo. Our favorite thing was evening walks to the boat landing to see the sunset! Needless to say we can’t wait to visit again!

Great place to stay. Had everything we needed to accommodate us. Closer to neighbors than we prefer but not a deal breaker for us. Would definitely book again.

Glad you enjoyed the stay! We would love to have you back!
The property was perfect for our family Thanksgiving plans! Comfortable setting, gorgeous views, and all the conveniences available in the home for use! Owner is also very responsive and kind!
We had the best time at this property! It was a much needed weekend away to relax and enjoy the scenery. The house worked so well for us we even talked about booking again in the summer so we could use the slide and kayaks!

We are so glad you had a great time! We would love to have you back for the summer! Feel free anytime!
The house was perfect for what we needed. Inside is clean and comfortable. Enjoyed the hot tub. The only thing that would have made it even better is if there weren’t so many spider webs throughout the outside patio and deck area. This home is great for a summer get away at the lake!
My friends and I had a wonderful time! House was clean, master bed is the comfiest bed I’ve ever slept on, and hot tub was a great addition! The host was quick with responding and very kind! I would highly recommend!
