To Celebrate My Retirement

Everything was perfect. We worked with the owner of the property through VRBO and it was very easy to communicate, ask questions and get answers. We visited twice prior to our reservation date to get a feel for who would sleep where of the 40 folks on our list of invitees. The owner was always very accommodating. The entire experience was so relaxed and stress-free. The pool, the hot tub, the lake. So amazing. Thank you so much Tony and VRBO!

We had our office retreat here with 21 women. We had an absolutely incredible experience at this beautiful home! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by how spacious ,clean and well maintained everything was. The house easily accommodated our large group. We are already planning our trip again for next year.

Excellent Property!! Just know the heated pool isnt free:)

We had a fabulous time. The accommodations were phenomenal. I would definitely recommend and stay again!! BUT.....I recieved a text from the property manager saying I would be charged $600 for turning the heater on on the pool. Thankfully, the pool heater had a lock on it so I wouldn't have been able to turn it on. They sent a pool guy out to confirm and discovered the sensor sent a false alarm. My concern was, it advertised heated pool as a selling point. Nothing in the description said it was $600 extra. I would suggest updating the description so that guests are aware or including it in the cost. Again, definitely 5 stars on the accommodations!

Great weekend away with Family and Friends

The property was great for 3 families together and the convenience to RDU is unmatched. We rented a boat and added in the Chef experience which made this place a great getaway! I do recommend the owners put a good cleaning inside and out on the house shortly. Nothing terrible, but it would be a huge benefit.

Just as advertised!

Don’t hesitate if you are considering booking this property. It is beautiful, exactly like the pictures. We had my small wedding on a beautiful dock overlooking a scenic lake. It was perfect! I would love to come back in the summer to enjoy the lake a little more but the hot tub was a good conciliation! TV and wifi worked as advertised. Our only issue is that we could not get the surround sound to work but we brought our own speakers so that helped. Communication with the property manager Tony was also great! He was immediately reachable and very accommodating to us.

Great Home for Large Family Getaway!

The executive mansion was a great place to stay. The kitchen is great, the theater room is awesome, and the game rooms and outside amenities provided everything we needed for fun family interactions. The only down side was that the description didn’t make clear that the rooms with three queen beds actually have two queens and a sofa bed.

Highly recommend this property

I had 31 people at this property...everyone was SO comfortable! Plenty of space for everyone, lots to do, very clean, completely stocked, gorgeous view and amenities. Bedding was very clean and comfortable and towels provided for all. The host was incredible...always responded to me immediately. Just a few suggestions...tv's were older and either not compatible or not working so I recommend they be upgraded to Smart TV's, several kayaks were in desperate need of repair or should be discarded. Also, the upper deck above the dock seems slightly unstable. Master bath jacuzzi tub was inoperable. Regardless, I HIGHLY recommend this property!! It was AMAZING and we would all definitely stay there again!!

Huge Home, Great Lake

We were a group of 25. 13 adults 12 kids. 6 family neighbor trip. The home is enormous and was very spacious. Check in was easy and the house was ready for guests. The property manager, Tony, was easy to communicate with and when we had an exterior lightning issue, Freddy responded promptly and helped resolve the issue. We hired Chef Christian for two nights and he was amazing. He set up everything on his own, without any assistance. Just stay out of his way and let him work. Great meals and a good guy. We rented the pontoon, which was great and I think it’s a must. Not too much in the town areas, but we knew that coming in. Lake, dock, toys, theater, pool, balconies and the grills were a hit. Ice maker was very useful. Some minor issues with the home (light bulbs, a couple breakers turned off, some dust bunnies), but honestly the house is so huge and the fact that it’s constantly being rented I really think it would be impossible to be perfect. Any issue I had was addressed right away. Overall the space is great and the location on the water was wonderful. I recommend

"Mansion" is a good description

Our family of 21 enjoyed a week of relaxation and renewing family ties. The weather was very cooperative. The house is very spacious and served our needs and wants very well. On Sunday, I reported to the property manager cloudy water in the pool. According to the property manager, the pool was serviced on the previous Saturday and to be serviced on Tuesday but was not. By Wednesday the pool was green and serviced on both Thursday and Friday preventing us from using the pool all day Thursday and Friday. The lake was a good substitute, but unfortunately several members of the family were not able to use the lake due to physical limitations. Could not find a cutting board in the main kitchen, and there were very few kitchen dish clothes/towels. Several pieces of furniture were broken (dining room chair, bedroom chair) and light bulbs either missing or burned out. The ice maker was a big hit and was called upon often. The lower rack on the main kitchen dishwasher was very difficult to roll in/out.

Home was much larger than expected!

The description did not do this home justice! More than enough room for our group of 21. Check in was easy as pie, and we had great communication with the property manager. Everything we needed to start our vacation was easily explained. All the linens and towels provided were clean and in great shape, and the beds and pillows were comfortable and supportive. If the bedroom was not an en suite, the shared hall baths were more than accommodating. Pride of ownership is shown in the home. Nothing was in a state of disrepair, and the few things we did find that were broken were due to misuse from other renters. The things we had informed the owner about were immediately repaired, and he thoroughly thanked us for letting him know. We definitely plan on renting again if he’ll have us!!
