Great property to stay at for Lake Rathbun

We stayed 3 nights while in area fishing Lake Rathbun. Kept our boat at the marina which was only about a 10 minute drive. House was clean, updated, and AC worked great as temps were mid to upper 90’s. Beds were comfortable and property had all the needed amenities. Highly recommend.
