Perfect Lake House

We really enjoy the set up of this property. Perfect location on the lake and a good layout of the house for a bigger group. It does need a good deep cleaning (think windows and baseboards) but the basics were clean (sheets and floors). We will return again!

Great vacation!

We had a great vacation and the location on the water was perfect! The lot was level and great for my elderly mother and grand babies walking back and forth to the dock! The only down fall was putting the boats in and the dirt road access. Everything else was great!

Great house, excellent location on the lake. We had multiple families & had plenty of room. Spacious kitchen & huge decks are a plus. We did have trouble finding the community boat ramp but owner was very helpful & immediately got us directions to the nearest public ramp.

Will definitely rent again!

We traveled with 12 adults and we fit perfectly. The house is bigger than the pictures show. Property is in a cove, which we really enjoyed. House was clean and beds were comfy. We brought a boat and there was plenty of room on the dock to tie up. We will definitely be back!

Great large very clean house!

We rented this house for additional family and friends over the week of Thanksgiving. It was perfect for what we needed!! It is very very remote, but that was fine as we live right up the road! Last year we rented a house for the same purpose but we had to take and pick up guests by boat (which was chilly in November). We will definitely rent this house again!

I loved this house. It is 100% the best house on the lake in the area. There is plenty of room inside and outside. I wish the pictures on the listing were updated to show how much better the house is than what it looks! The island in the kitchen is huge and is a great focal point!

Family short vacation

This was the 2nd time we have stayed here. It’s a beautiful place. Flat front yard that goes right up to lake. Walk ways are concrete which is wonderful for people in wheelchairs. The only set back is that there is not a ramp for handicapped people. Other than that, it’s a great place to go for a family get away. We love it.

Lake Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at Lake Sinclair! The house was great and the property beautiful. The roads getting there were a blast, but unexpected….hahaha! Oh and take the owners words to heart! Pack food before you get there as grocery stores are 45 mins away. But such a great place to relax, unwind and spend time with family! Highly recommend!

Making Memories

Each year, all our family votes to stay at your house in June. They love the location, the house and dock. I love the big kitchen and dining options which accommodate all of us. Each year we see improvements to the house. We will continue to stay at your house as long as we can. In years to come, they will say, "Remember when......, it was so much fun!!"

AMAZING

If you are looking for an amazing time at the lake, this is the rental for you! I have been to multiple lakes and lake homes. This house is by far the best. The house is secluded and you have to take a couple of unfinished roads, but the location of this house has a 1800 degree water view. While here we rented jet ski and pontoon! FUN!!!

Best vacation ever!

3 families of 6 adults and 7 kids! We absolutely LOVED this lake house. We had so much space. The pictures really do not do this place justice! The property is stunning. I love the big open grass area for our kids to run around and plenty of shore line to fish. The kitchen was HUGE and loved having the space with so many people. Our favorite vacation we have taken with our group of 3 family friends. I have a feeling this won’t be our last trip here!

Family Fun!

Lake Sinclair is close enough that we don't have a long travel time and can spend more time enjoying ourselves. The house has a LARGE kitchen and serves as our grand central station as we gather for food, fun and family. At the lake, there is always something to do - swimming, fishing or boating and there are games on site - corn hole and horseshoes, board games and cards. We don't have to leave the house for activities. The owners are very helpful and friendly. Thank you to the "M" 's for opening their family retreat to our family.

secluded family retreat!

We loved our visit to this spacious home!! Lots of yard for kids to enjoy, beautiful scenery, and lots of fish!! Family conversations and roasting marshmallows were perfect around the firepit!! Front porch was perfect for relaxing and reading! The covered dock was perfect for fishing with my grandsons while it was raining! So many precious memories were made during our visit. This home is secluded and off the beaten path which is excellent for limiting those back-and-to store visits. Take everything you need including board games and movies, and just relax, fish, and enjoy the family!! Can't wait to go back!!

Great place for GCSU graduation for a group!

Enjoyed our long weekend get away at this comfy, spacious home with family joining us from CA for our son's GCSU graduation. We were able to relax on the porch while a blue heron entertained us with several visits, tool around the beautiful lake with a pontoon rental from Jereshai, motor over to Jackson's for dinner, & cook a couple full meals for our group of 8 adults. Everything worked well to accommodate our group & Lauren was very responsive. Having a pontoon made it much easier to get into town for graduation with cars parked at the marina. Thanks for sharing your lake house with us!

Why they chose this property

We love our home for view and secluded nature of the home. We have the privacy in a quiet neighborhood with the view of the lake!
