Lakeside calm

Very nice older 2&2. We have stayed here before and like it very much. A peaceful hour in the fishing chairs at the end of the dock are great place to kick back.

I will say this first, that the view of the lake was beautiful from the deck. The place needs to be updated. The neighbor is right on top of you, which wouldn't of been bad, but after the second night around 5pm of the blasting music, I decided to complain to the owner of this VRBO, and the music stopped. Also, there is only one full bath and that caused a problem for four people. One TV in the living room and the Window Unit in the main living area has rags pushed around the window, with buckets collecting the water. We were very disappointed for the money we paid and I have learned from this experience to ask the owner questions before it's too late. I've written to VRBO and never heard back.

Stayed two nights for my brother's 60th birthday. Having our own place was much more convenient. The cottage was... clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Would rent again.

Enjoyed our stay!

My family including my husband, two daughters (5 and 8), and my mom and sister all had an enjoyable stay at the cottage. We enjoyed the fireworks display from the deck, and the parade in a nearby town. It was relaxing and fun!

Average

It was an okay place and the owner was accommodating, but for the amount of money we had to spend, we thought it should be more high end. We have stayed in several other places that were a lot nicer for less money.

Ladies Retreat!

The house was just the right size and accessible for older adults. It was clean and had all the necessary amenities. It's a nice size lake, the water is shallow by the pier so you can swim and float. We even rented a pontoon!

Hometown visit

My husband grew up on Koontz lake. It was our first time visiting in twenty years and bringing our daughter. She had never seen the lake or area that her Dad grew up. Perfect location and beautiful lake views. We enjoyed a meal on the deck and night and coffee in the morning.

Family getaway

We usually go to Florida every summer for our family vacation but due to me being in a really bad car accident a few months ago we decided to do something within driving distance. I thought a house on the lake was just what we needed, and I was right! It's very peaceful and allowed us to get some quality time together. There's not much to do around there but honestly I think that helped with family bonding time. If we decide to do something like this again I'd definitely book here again! Only regret, Tuesday - Saturday wasn't enough, I wish I would've booked a whole week!
