I took my family here for the week of the 4th. Peggi and Tom are extremely accomodating to any and every need. The home is pristine and updated with all the amenities you could need. The location is on the inlet so you get the peace of not being directly on the lake but with a beautiful area of lakefront access for swimming & playing with the kids.The home comes equipped with kayaks, paddle boards, and pedal boats which are great to get out on the lake for some exercise and entertainment. The back deck and dock area are the best on the inlet with couches, a fire table, and umbrellas. Also, If you enjoy fishing this place is a honeyhole. We caught bass, perch, bluegill, pike, bowfin and there are turtles sunning everywhere.I would highly recommend for anyone going to the sister lakes.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled that you and your family had such a fantastic week celebrating the 4th of July with us. It’s great to hear that you enjoyed the peace of the inlet, the water toys, and the outdoor deck setup—and we love that you discovered our favorite fishing "honeyhole"! Providing a clean, fully equipped, and relaxing space for families to make memories is exactly what we strive for. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of the property. We would delight in hosting your family again the next time you plan a getaway to the Sister Lakes area! Warm regards, Peggi & Tom

This was the perfect location for a relaxing getaway! The home was spotless, and stocked with all the needed amenities from new appliances, glassware, and silverware to fresh towels and toiletries in case you forgot anything! Lots of thoughtful touches throughout the home (sound machines and multi-plug phone chargers in each bedroom), with kids and adult games and books to help unplug and spend quality time with your group! Loved the peddle boat and kayaking experiences too! Sitting on the deck watching the turtles sunning themselves and swimming in the clear lake was another fun perk! Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating on the big deck with a clean gas grill. There were a variety of comfy chairs to choose from outside too (outdoor dining area, rocking chairs, long lounge chairs, an outdoor couch and chairs with cushions) and umbrellas when we needed a break from the sun. The hosts really thought of everything to enjoy time at the beach, boating, or floating… pool noodles, floating seats, beach towels, portable coolers, life jackets, kayaks and peddle boats. The location was great too… short drive to restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner, groceries, wineries, and breweries. We would definitely stay here again!

All Vrbo owners should take a lesson from Peggi! I'm a picky guest and have stayed in sooo many rentals and nothing compared to the attention to detail that Peggi has spent to ensure you have an amazing time away from home. The house is spotless, and was stocked with everything you needed and more. The kids had soooo much fun with all the water toys that this house. We rented a pontoon boat from a local marina and it was nice to cruise the lake. Trust me, look no further! Worlds cutest rental 10/10. We will be back Thanks Peggi and Tom!
