We had a wonderful stay over the Fourth of July while visiting family in Mississippi. The property’s location in Ethelsville was perfect for us—it was only about 15 minutes from our family, making it incredibly convenient while still giving us a peaceful place to unwind.The house is beautiful and tucked away in the countryside, surrounded by nature. It was a nice change of pace from our usual scenery in Texas. Being right in front of the lake made it even more relaxing, and we really enjoyed the quiet, peaceful atmosphere.The host was very accommodating and responsive throughout our stay. We also appreciated that the host’s dad, who lives next door, stopped by to introduce himself and make sure we had everything we needed. That personal touch made us feel very welcome.Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely stay here again if we’re back in the area. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with exceptional hospitality.

Relaxed home in a rural area. Plenty of room for the family to gather. Well stocked kitchen for family meals. Close enough to Columbus Air Force Base without being in town.

Ideal place for large families

Stayed here two nights for our daughter’s graduation in Starkville. Family enjoyed fishing and just being outdoors…house is big and spacious. Decor is nice and had a very homey feel to the house. Would definitely stay here again if need arose!
