About this property

This lakeside stunner boasts 4 bedrooms (sleeps 9), 3 baths, a large kitchen and plenty of living space including a game room. A large well-appointed kitchen offers a beautiful view of the lake. The primary bedroom includes a coffee/wine station and allows you to enjoy a private screened deck with its own view. The game room includes a foosball table, dart board, TV and Pac Man. The house also includes a large wood deck lakeside, for BBQ-ing, outdoor dining and relaxing. A third screened deck off the game room is a great place to enjoy a friendly happy hour! The property also includes an outdoor fire pit, dock and boathouse. Lake Talquin is nationally known for its fresh water fishing tournaments, but there is plenty more to enjoy. In addition to vacationers, we have a large following of FSU parents and football families preferring to stay at the lake rather than in town. Lake Talquin State Forest encompasses much of the southern and southwestern shores, and wildlife is abundant throughout the area. With a variety of coves to explore along its 20-mile shoreline, you can't help but enjoy your time here. Bring your boat, small watercraft or kayak and launch them from a nearby boat landing. You can moor them feet from the house at your own private dock. Plenty of hiking trails in the area including a walking path right in the neighborhood. Book your stay today!

Great Lake Getaway!

We stayed here with my son and 2 young grandkids and it was an awesome getaway! The house was clean and had a great floor plan for our family. The kitchen was probably one of the best appointed kitchens of any VRBO that we have stayed. We cooked a lot at the house and always had everything we needed to prepare and serve our meals. There were so many places to relax in this home and at the water that we didn’t feel like we had enough time to enjoy it all. The dock was nice for fishing with the kids and we caught a few fish. We enjoyed watching the turtles and even saw a little gator! The sounds of the birds in the morning was so soothing! The kids loved the game room and bunk beds and there was definitely plenty of storage in the house for our belongings. We will definitely come again!

Spring Break Getaway

The property was beautiful, as was the house! We loved the fishing, house dock, backyard fire pit and screened in deck area. My husband loves to cook as well as grill and the house was stocked with all the needed grill & cookware! The neighborhood was quiet and safe. We had a lovely stay.

Great lake spot!

Great property with great lake access. The ramp was nearby to get the boat in the water and the covered slip was a perfect fit for our 20 ft pontoon boat. Anything larger would be tough to get in place but was perfect for us. And there was plenty of room in the yard for cars and the trailer. The house was set up great, and loved the fire pit.
