Beautiful very comfortable house. The views are breathtaking, early mornings are the best off the dock. Amenities were great, pool table was a big hit. Soft confusion beds, spacious fully equipped kitchen. Could invest more time cleaning the outside, windows, patio and surrounding had a lot of spiderwebs, but we overall enjoyed our stay very very much! We will revisit for sure!

Thank you so much for the review. The beauty of the lake also brings the assortment of insects. We use pest control on a regular basis and pressure wash. They come back the next day. It’s a constant battle. We’ll continue to battle them for our guest to enjoy those beautiful sunsets.

This trip was much needed, and we got everything we needed out of it. Overall, everything went as smooth as we could expect. Minor cleaning issues, but that’s more of a cleaning service issue. Pool table kept the kids occupied, the wives appreciated the dock house A/C for sure, and the that view was something to see. Thanks for the opportunity.

We came to celebrate my daughter’s college graduation and couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. Having a house instead of a hotel made such a difference during a busy graduation weekend. We brought in catering from Publix and avoided the long restaurant waits, while still enjoying a few meals out. The home itself was beautiful and had great amenities—everyone especially enjoyed the pool table. It was so nice to relax, spend time together, and celebrate in such a comfortable setting. Next time, we’d definitely plan to rent a boat and enjoy the lake even more. Highly recommend!

Relaxing lake retreat

This place is fantastic! The exceptionally open floor plan with floor to ceiling lake views is amazing! The dock hosts a tiny lake cabin which provided another room for our family to use which was very helpful with five kids. We loved playing pool and the extra large porch swing was my favorite spot. I highly recommend staying here. You won’t be disappointed.

Best Little Big Cabin

This place far, far exceeded my expectations. This place was super roomy with all the comfort of home plus. The setting was magnificent and I couldn’t believe that the little dock house had a foldout twin bed, fridge, ac, and heat-the perfect place for that teen in the group that seeks their separate space! While we were in the area for a sad occasion, this place more than helped us feel comfy away from home. The owner was super responsive and as we found out how sensitive the smoke alarms were while cooking bacon in the oven, she was quick to give a call and let us know that we should keep the vent over the stove going while cooking. Nice to know they work and would keep us safe! The open concept was great for entertaining guests. Loved the place and highly recommend it.

Amazing Lake Home on Lake Talquin!

Sunset Memories Lake House is AMAZING! You couldn't ask for a better place to stay on Lake Talquin in Tallahassee, Florida! I LOVED EVERYTHING about this place!! It is newly renovated, and the floor plan is absolutely perfect! The dock house is so adorable, and now a must for me!! It has an air conditioner and electric fireplace, to keep the perfect temperature! If you get tired of fishing, just go and relax in the dock house to enjoy the most beautiful sunsets every evening! The host was so gracious, and made sure our stay was unforgettable! She was so kind, and helpful with all of our needs, and requests! Also, this home is the ONLY handicapped accessible place that I found on Lake Talquin! There is a large paved parking area right up to the front door, and a paved path to the dock! It has plenty of things to do, like a pool table, darts, and games provided, which we really enjoyed every night! The location of this home was ideal, peaceful, and only a few homes away from a public boat ramp. I absolutely LOVED the large shower in the bathroom, and beautiful fireplace! I will be booking this rental again! Faith, thank you for allowing us to stay at this wonderful lake home!
