Beautiful property in wonderful location! We enjoyed the view from the porch as much as being in the pool and on the lake. Perfect for our family vacation. Would definitely love to stay here again!
This is a beautiful property! Cleanliness was wonderful. The pool area could have some weeds/vegetation removed but other than that its spectacular. We had a wonderful vacation here and would definitely return.
House was wonderful. Bedrooms were large and comfortable giving everyone plenty of room. Common areas were also great. Pool and hot tub was wonderful bonus and the cove the house was on kept things quite with easy access to the water.
The house itself was beautiful, very warm and cozy. Our family loved the pool as well as the hot tub and then other family came for dinner for a birthday celebration and loved the house. Contact with Mike was easy and he was so pleasant to deal with.
We had a wonderful time! We loved being right on the water. Easy walk to the dock. It was great being in the cove to go out on the boat or just float around. We all agreed, it was a lot of fun and look forward to next year:)
What a great weekend with family and friends. The pool was wonderful and on a rainy evening the hot tub is a dream. There is so much space and love all of the amenities!
This is an excellent location for any time of the year! We really enjoyed our time at the lake house. The bunk beds may need a little TLC, but everything else was just perfect!
Enjoyed a long weekend rental with family and it did not disappoint! Plenty to keep everyone happy….fire pit, Outdoor TVs, hot tub and paddle boards Hoping to visit again

Place is clean and modern. Pool, hot tub, and lake all great! The perfect balance for family during graduation .Paddle boarding and kayak and pool table kept the young everyone smiling! Property does have a steep driveway and does not come with essentials- something to keep in mind but overall was a great stay!

We are so happy you had a great stay! Sandy Cove has so many amenities meant for the whole family. We provide a welcome bag with "starter items" like two rolls of toilet paper, paper towel roll, a few dishwasher pods, etc. We try to clearly advertise in the listing and welcome guide that we do not provide toiletries that are meant to last the entire stay. Sorry for any miscommunication! *Beville Getaways*
This property is exactly as pictured and it is lovely. Tons of activities, lots of space to relax and a great hot tub. The pool was gorgeous too, but too cold for us in late March.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandy Bottom Cove. Great interior layout for our families with the large living areas, game room, nice kitchen and bathrooms. Enjoyed the outdoor space of the 2 levels of decks, hot tub and private dock. Incredible view, and we loved getting out on the water for a peaceful paddleboard session. Management quickly and politely handled all our questions and concerns. Definitely recommend!
A beautifully designed home with all the amenities that had something for everyone. We could not have asked for better weather. A very fun and relaxing vacation.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay! Come back soon!
My family stayed here for 6 days. The property was very clean and family friendly. Neighborhood was quiet and only a 10 minute drive to local shops, arcade and restaurants. There was so much to do from water activities to the game room downstairs. We truly enjoyed our stay!

The house was absolutely gorgeous with a ton of space for a big group. The pool table, hot tub, and two massive living rooms were great amenities that were perfect for a large group of friends. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a getaway weekend.

This house was perfect for our family Christmas! There were plenty of rooms for everyone and it never felt like we were on top of each other. Unfortunately, due to the time of the year, we couldn't use the pool, but the hot tub was great! We would definitely rent it again!

Pool, hot tub, views, and property were amazing! We enjoyed hanging out at the fire pit in the morning watching the boats and had smores in the evening. We used the pool table, hot tub and heated pool several times a day. We even extended our trip a day because it was so hard to leave. Definitely booking again next year!
