This is a fun property for a quiet getaway. Our host was wonderful and checked in with us during our stay, making sure we had what we needed and even made sure our furry friends were treated well. The lake is walking distance and the state park a short drive away. A perfect relaxing weekend despite some rain.

We're so glad this was the perfect spot for a relaxing, quiet getaway, rain and all! It means a lot to hear the check-ins, the walk to the lake, and the nearby state park all added to a great weekend for you and your furry friends.

Weekend w/ Family

We enjoyed our stay at the melody and the nostalgia of it. I really liked that it was pet friendly and our dog was able to enjoy the lake with us. The neighbors were friendly and we saw tons of deer and baby deer. The hosts were super helpful!

Simply the best!

It’s just as cute, clean and put together in real life as it looks in the listing! The host’s attention to detail and love for what she is doing is evident. Great communication, quiet little neighborhood, wonderful porch to relax on, comfy beds with nice linens; just what we were looking for for a weekend in Brownwood!

From the Owner: "Thank you, Rhonda! We loved having you all and your darling fur babies! We will consider your recommendation. We thought since you can get live TV with Roku it would still offer choices along with Netflix, etc, but I bet with King stays like yours maybe Direct TV would be better. We will look into it. We hope you come again soon!"

The range did not work. Many wasps outside. Nothing available to was dishes. There were morning electrical blackouts on 2 of the 4 days.

Response from VrboOwner on 10 Jul 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry for the inconvenience you experienced during your stay. There were area-wide power outages through Oncor affecting that side of the lake, which were unfortunately outside of our control. We also understand how frustrating the wasps must have been. We had checked the area, sprayed, removed nests prior to check-in, and provided wasp spray under the sink in case they returned. Dish soap, sponges, and a drying rack were also available under the sink and noted in the welcome book. Regarding the range, one burner had come loose, but it has since been adjusted and is working properly. We appreciate you bringing these items to our attention and hope the rest of your stay was enjoyable.

Best time ever

Truly enjoyed our stay. Quiet area. Loved going back into the retro era!! Comfortable, relaxing, and fun.Only down was no direct lake access where we stayed. Had to go 1/2 mile to get to lake, which was not a game changer. We still loved it and will definitely return. Terri was great and communicated 100%. More people should consider this place it is fantastic!!

Melody triler

Very well appointed, clean comfortable. Nice outdoor deck plenty of hot water for showers etc. great hosts. Everything you might need is there. Didn’t use hot tub, but looked inviting. We had 2 pickups and 2 boats,we had to be creative with parking. Hosts offered alternatives to accommodate us. Great for couples with kids. Bunk beds in second bedroom but we made them work. We are all in our 70’s. It was a good stay!
