This lakehouse was amazing. The host was very professional and made our stay extra special. I would highly recommend anyone visiting this area in FL to stay at this house. The fishing was awesome. Also, the staff at the bait shop was excellent!
Beautiful home. So comfortable and welcoming. Very friendly host. Enjoyed all the space and all the amenities. Very peaceful and relaxing area. Highly recommend.
The house is absolutely amazing. I didn’t wanna leave. Everything was clean and orderly, just as stated in the description. the view in the morning with the birds is fantastic.
Our family enjoyed the weekend together! Very nice house on the lake. Our host was attentive to our needs and requests. The house has plenty of private spaces and many places to enjoy a meal. The hot tub is a wonderful bonus! The property is close to restaurants, gas stations, and some shopping.
Great place. We had a grrat time and plenty for our kids to do while my husband fished. I enjoyed the great view for my morning coffee and my sons enjoyed played pool amd kayaked
We absolutely loved this house. Thinking about making it a yearly trip. The fishing in march is amazing! Everything about this property was perfect. Wish i was still there.

Thank you, Donna!
It was wonderful to host you and your guests. I'm eagerly looking forward to welcoming you back again. I truly appreciate your kind and thoughtful review.
Overall, our stay at the Lakehouse was everything we hoped it would be. Beautiful spot with lots of wildlife, yet close to everything. Host is terrific! She was always available and helpful. We hope to stay here again!
Great location, house was perfect with lots of room! The outside was great and we took our Tritoon boat and tied it up on the boat dock! Boat ramp close (Tracey point) 5 to put in, super easy!!!This will be a yearly family gathering for us!!We will definitely book again..owner super friendly and accommodating!
We enjoyed our stay. The house is functional and offers lots of entertainment in the property. It has different sitting areas to match everyone ‘s needs and liking. We had a blast!
Beautiful property, plenty of wildlife, very quiet and serene. Lots of sitting areas with great views of the lake. Comfy, cozy and relaxing. Seen Charlie the gator on our last day!
We had a great time here. Some of us used to fish here as kids, so we brought our parents back and had a great time! The house met all of needs and offered plenty of out door space to run around and fish from with a near by boat ramp. The kayaks and peddle boat was a huge bonus! Great stay!
We had a wonderful stay at the lake house. Everything was clean and well maintained. The best part was sitting outside in the morning, drinking coffee, and watching the sun come up over Lake Panasoffkee. We highly recommend this property for your vacation!
The house was clean and had plenty of room for the 5 of us. Fishing off the dock with minnows was a great experience with plenty of catching. Also a lot of good local restaurants
It was a wonderful experience on the lake . The house was perfect large enough for all of us.
And the fishing was wonderful. We caught more fish right out front on the dock then we did in the boat.
We had the greatest time at this property!!! We are very busy and we had the opportunity to enjoy an unbelievable relaxing weekend. Everything was perfect! And the property manager was very attentive and super nice!
Our purpose in booking this place was to have enough space for several families to get together for the purpose of delivering our Mom’s ashes to the National Cemetery in Bushnell to be reunited with our father. The house location was perfect bordering lake and canal frontage. The dock for fishing attracted several of our family, but also, the hot tub, pool table and varying outdoor and screened spaces. It truly was perfect for our needs.
***Outstanding Lake House Experience- Exceeded All Expectations!*** Our group of 5 adults just returned from an absolutely perfect week at this beautiful home on Lake Panasoffkee and we couldn't be happier with our choice! Katty was an exceptional host from start to finish. Her thoughtful personal touches before our arrival set the tone for became the most relaxing vacation we've had in years. Her communication and hospitality were top-notch throughout our entire stay. The home itself is spacious and beautifully decorated, providing comfortable accommodations for our entire group. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed for cooking our meals and we particularly enjoyed grilling burgers one evening and dining under the lanai. For those bringing boats, Tracy's Point boat launch is just a convenient 3 minutes away. We had fantastic fishing, catching plenty of Bream and several Bass. Our two dogs absolutely loved having the yard to explore and joining us on the dock between boat trips. Having grown up visiting Lake Panasoffkee every summer, finding this gem of a property made our trip extra special. The location and amenities made this place hands down the best place we've ever stayed on the lake.We are already planning our return trip (and staying longer next time!) This property offered everything we needed for a perfect vacation!. We will definately be back soon!!
Great lakeside property with beautiful views from inside, especially the sunrises, and plenty of outdoor spaces for larger groups to fish, hot-tub, play games, or just relax. Good value for renovated older property with updated appliances and plenty of cookware and dishes. The indoor fireplace was not usable, but the fire pit more than makes up for it, especially at night with clear, dark and starry skies. As a bonus, we saw a large otter swimming to his home on the other side of the canal!

It was truly a pleasure having you and your family as our guests.
We are so glad that you enjoyed the lake house , And thank you for leaving our lake house just the way you found it, it was really a pleasure having you and we hope to see you again in the near future.
Respectfully,
Scott & Katty
Very clean property on the end a very quiet working neighbor hood. Enjoyed the wildlife swimming, and flying by. It worked great for the 4 of us. Could definitely handled more guest. I would have liked a dishwasher in the smaller kitchen. We didn't come there to cook and pertained local restaurants. I was surprised to not have a full propane tank. It ran out 10 minutes in of a 15 minute grill. Other wise enjoyed our stay.

About the host
Hosted by Katty West
I’m originally from Ecuador.I came here when I was 16 years old & grew up in NJ until I moved to Florida in 2020. When I saw this house, I fell in love but I knew that I had a big challenge ahead of me since she needed a lot of love & care. Today, I don’t regret any of those challenges. The most beautiful & peaceful thing is to hear the wildlife & enjoy those beautiful sunsets & sunrises. Come & enjoy the most peaceful & beautiful views of Lake
Why they chose this property
We were looking for the perfect place to retire, close to everything but far enough to enjoy all the sounds of nature and fishing as well.

Now you are part of this special home as well and we hope for you to share beautiful memories for years to come. Please love and care for our home as much as we do.
