This home is beautiful inside and out, clean friendly and comfortable. Everything we needed was there. We had 7 adults and 3 children/infants and all were comfortable! I highly recommend this home for all.
House is convenient to all major boat ramps. We had no problem parking and the lighted covered shelter was great for getting ready for the next morning. Convenient to several local places to eat. I would definitely stay here again.
This VRBO is very clean, well-planned and designed with anglers in mind. The location is convenient for easy access to fishing ramps and restaurants. The owner was prompt with inquiry responses and ensured we were comfortable. Highly recommend this house when visiting the area. We are already making plans to visit again.

What a great group to host and would be thrilled to have you back.
Thank you again for sharing a few of your beautiful wedding photos!
Very clean home. Rocks under shed made it a little difficult to pull out on motorcycles but host says that will be addressed. Not far from downtown Leesburg and great home base if you like to ride. One of the cleanest and neatest places Ive stayed on bike trips.
Thank you! Hope to host your crew again soon!
Side note- electrician is increasing the amps on the electrical under the car port to easily accommodate 3 boats for charging, making it easier for your next stay!
The property was as advertised. Newly updated, clean accommodations and comfortable beds. Great communication from host. Highly recommend, for golf, or fishing trip.
Dorothy was super responsive and the house was beautiful and well furnished! Sparkling clean, brand new appliances, furnishings, etc. While on a busier road, this home is set back and entrance to driveway is from a private way. We look forward to staying here again when visiting family in the area!
Property was conveniently located central to all the lakes. Carport was very convenient for boat parking. Home was very nice and spacious. Host was very responsive and helpful with the only small issue we had. I will definitely be staying here again.
Dorothy’s property is incredibly nice and spacious inside, and the enclosed backyard is great for gathering in the evenings after a day of fishing. She is a great host and immediately responds to any communication. We had three boats and trucks on the property, and the access road to a handful of homes made it very convenient to get in and out. Great location for fishing any of the Harris Chain lakes.
