The house was wonderful. We stayed for a guys golf weekend and were very surprised by all the small details the host incorporated into the house. The kitchen was well stocked with all the necessities, instructions were clean, everything was very clean, and little touches like small snacks to welcome us to the house and qtips in the bathrooms. We would definitely stay here again if in the area.
This was the best place we have ever stayed with Vrbo. Owners thought of everything! Lights labeled, games, movies, fire pit with wood provided, fully equipped kitchen, coffee selection, even spices available for cooking!Seriously, we’ve done at least 20 rentals through the years. This one was HANDS DOWN the best.
Fantastic place to stay when coming to fish on The Fork. Jessie, hands down really easy to work with. Place is always very welcoming and extremely clean. See ya next spring!
Overall great experience house was perfect with plenty of parking for boats and vehicles. Also is located in a great location of the lake with the nicest boat ramp just a few minutes from the house.
Our stay was great. The host was helpful, and available for questions. The property is nice, and was good to have covered storage for the boat. Will definitely consider booking again. Thanks!
We all loved staying at the stilt house. Ms. Jessica provided all amenities you can think of to make your stay easier. My nieces, nephew and kids loved the snacks that were provided to us. Love that she had toothbrushes ready...so small but tells alot about how she enjoys people staying and wecloming people into her home.
This property was easy to ger to. Very kid friendly and clean. Everything was beautiful. Prayerfully all rules were followed and we left the Stilt home in the condition in which we found it.It was very comfortable. Thank you Mr. Jessie.
Really nice place with plenty of extras. We stayed here so we could go fishing at Lake Fork. The boat we rented left us stranded on the first day and wouldn't start on the second day. Luckily we stayed at this awesome house and made the best of the trip. We would definitely stay here again even if it was to get away for the weekend!
The home was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed — and then some! The neighbors were quiet and respectful. The host, Jessie, was very friendly and sent notifications in a timely manner. Although the house isn’t located directly on the lake, it is easily accessible. It was a very relaxing and safe weekend. Highly recommend for friends and families.
We had nine fishing buddies spend a week crappie fishing. The Stilt House is a fantastic resort! We have been coming to Lake Fork for the past 10 years and this was our first experience staying in a Vrbo property. The communication with the hosts Chris and Jessie was great. We have already booked our trip for next year. Thank you for such a beautiful place to stay. It’s perfect!!
Great place for bass fishermen.
The covered boat parking is great.
House was very nice inside.
Only complaints were a stopped up drain in the guest tub, and a busted coffee maker.
Will return!!

We had a wonderful, relaxing, and memorable time at the cabin on stilts! The host really thought of everything. We played so many games! The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The neighbor and her dog were very friendly. We plan to be back for sure

Thank you so much for choosing to stay at The Stilt House! You all were amazing guests and welcome back anytime! See you all again soon!
A few friends and I rented the Stilt House from Jessica and she was an amazing host. The house had everything, in the bathrooms we were provided with shampoo, conditioner, soap plus even q-tips and floss. There was so much thought and detail put into every aspect of this rental. We especially enjoyed the firepit after a long day of golf or fishing. The view from both patios was great, we watched the sunset from one covered porch and a view of the lake from the other. She had great suggestions for a fishing guide so we were able to go out bass fishing. Can't wait to return!
Great for family get together for Christmas. The kids had lots of room to play on the open deck or screened in deck; as well as below. The concrete made a great riding surface for them as well as play areas for outside games that are provided. We had Nana, adult kids, grandkids, and great grandkids, 16 total, in for the day; with 10 staying overnight. The kitchen area was well stocked, with everything in working order. Lots of room for many hands to help with preparing food.Loved having 2 1/2 bathrooms. One and a half baths easily accessible right off the living area. Best toilet paper we have ever had in any VRBO so far. Bedrooms offer easy access and comfortable beds.
