About this property

Private Cottage on 38 acres with two ponds and lake access.

Cozy cottage with covered deck and lots of space to roam. Has two ponds on the property for fishing and a short walk to Lake Eufaula. Some of the best crappie fishing on Lake Eufaula right out the back door with several coves on the lake. Backs up to Corp of Engineers property. Great hunting right out the back door for deer, wild boar, ducks, geese, and doves. Fantastic sunsets over Lake Eufaula. A must see in the evenings!

The property is gorgeous. View out the picture window you can see all the way to the lake. Beds were clean. And the kitchen had most of what you eould need. Our host was quick to respond. Everything was as he said it would be. There were 5 of us stayed 3 nights. And the only trash bag we could find was in the kitchen can. Not even in the bathroom cans. We had to use our grocery bags to take out the trash before we left. Also. My daughter dried off with a towel in the master bathroom the covered her in black hair. I can see where it would be great for hunters. And all in all, we had a nice time.

Great place to stay!

Great place outside of town. Nice big property to venture out a little, a couple of little ponds for kids to fish in, catch some grasshoppers and they've got it made. Great communication with the hosts. Will definitely keep this place in mind the next time we are in the area.

Thanksgiving Week

Family Truly enjoyed our stay. Place was great for us and our two dogs. The huge property gave our labor-doodle plenty-of space to run and enjoy. The house was very comfortable and allowed us to not only spread out, but also host a few Other family members for a great Thanksgiving Dinner.

Quiet, private location.

Overall, descent spot for 15-20 minutes access to multiple fishing spots on the Northern part of Lake Eufuala. Kitchen is well stocked, central A/C, and private. Ponds are nice to look at. No real access to the lake from the property especially when the lake is up. Would have given 4 stars, but rodent droppings throughout the house including the beds, some plumbing issues, and less than expected lake access from property.

Dave was a awesome man! Quick to respond and a lot of help for finding stuff around the lake! The ranch house has lake access right off the property and a incredible view of the lake right off the back patio. I can't wait to schedule another visit to this same place! We had an incredible 4th of July with memories that will last a life time! Thank you Dave!

loved it

the water pressure in the kitchen was bad and we literally could not find the ponds but those are my only two complaints . The reviews abt the ac being trash are people who just don’t know how to use it tbh, my group figured it out and it got icy cold. The pictures don’t do the place justice it is way better in person . The tv worked and the rooms were nice . There were great cooking utensils . I thoroughly enjoyed the place me and my group had the best time . Thank you for a great stay :)

Vacation Time

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a beautiful area. There were only a couple of minor things that we would have preferred been different. 1) no water pressure in kitchen sink; 2) the double-size mattress has seen better days; 3) the sustain peddle on the piano doesn't work. I was thrilled when I saw that there was a piano, but it wasn't in working condition; 4) it would be nice if the front porch steps had a hand rail. But overall, very pleasant stay.

OK, thanks for the feedback, I have a new faucet there for the kitchen and it will be installed when I get back to OK in Oct. Good point on the mattress, will get a new one on the way. Thanks for the info. on the piano, I don't play it, so wouldn't have known. The hand rail for the front is on the list of to do's. Thanks again and hope to see you again. Dave

Nice little house for a couple people

If your looking for a house that is off the beaten path then this is it. We loved the location but if it rains very much you better have a truck and probably need 4wd. It rained a couple of inches the day we arrived and we needed 4wd to get to the house with our boat. The mattresses leave something to be desired for sure as you sink to the frame and can feel every spring. Minus those two things the house was exactly what we were looking for. The only other complaint was that the loghting leaves something to be desired but that could easily be fixed with some new light bulbs.what we were looking for. The bngcould

Convenient, Quiet & Secluded

Property was convenient to where we were going in the area. Quiet and secluded location. Easy to get to. Comfortable beds. Kitchen looked to have cooking supplies needed but basic spices would be helpful. Also, we had to get coffee from store because we couldn’t find any. Extra trash bags would be helpful. Thankful that there was body soap, laundry soap & a washer & dryer. Roku was great to have. A/C and ceiling fans worked great & were quiet, comfortably cool. We enjoyed sitting out on back porch visiting with each other. We had a bit of trouble getting property padlock opened but I think a spray of WD40 would fix it. Loved the ease of the door code lock, easy to use. Overall, it’s a great little cabin to sleep over at. Thank you, Dave, for letting us stay at your place.

Pretty disappointing

The land itself was beautiful.The view from the back porch was wonderful. We didn't see any evidence of hogs, there was no trails to any of the ponds. Well there was one trail that was a bit overgrown but you could still see it to get to one pond. It was beautiful but it needed cleaning up a bit. The fenced in picnic area in the backyard was good for dogs. Over grown. The view of the land was the best feature. Back porch in one area if not careful you would go through. Opening the house doors was bad. The smell was soo bad. It had to be aired out a lot. I spoke with the host about a complaint on mice. He assured me it had been taken care of. I don't think this place had truly been cleaned. We found mouse poop all over in the kitchen. Along the floors in the bunkbed room, and living room. Water heater closet had mouse poop all over. The last day we were there we found a dead mouse right by my kids clothes. Wasn't there when we got there. Found these little storage containers with poop in them. I can understand finding a mouse given its in the country but this was evidence of a mouse invasion and lack of cleaning before we showed up. The beds were horrible,they felt like we were sleeping on springs. Looking back in reviews someone stated this and host said they would replace the one bed. That doesn't seem to be the case. Its very unfortunate we really wanted it to be one we would come back come deer season. There really wasn't much comfortable sitting room. Disappointed

Cute place

The house was super cute, liked all that was available, however guests need to be able to adjust temperature as needed for personal comfort and not just have a preset of 77 degrees. One could hardly stay inside as it was hot, humid and uncomfortable. It only slightly cooled off at night. We had to open the doors to be able to keep it decent inside. Also can ya make sure there are batteries for the remotes? We had to go buy batteries. Also can there be an option of TV service in at least the master bedroom? We sleep with noise and the TV on. We don’t have ROKU but were able to navigate to some nature shows we prefer watching. That’s really the only thing I would be mindful of for the house. Now onto the ease of getting to fishing ponds. The pictures show nicely maintained ponds, this was FAR from what we experienced. We had to wade through grass and weeds that LITERALLY came up waist level and some places higher. There was huge amount of ticks due to the extremely tall un managed field. The one pond where the picnic table is wasnt NEAR what it showed in the pictures. There was only one area to cast off and that was very difficult due to the canopy of tree branches that where overgrown. The rest of the edge and surrounding areas of the pond was surrounded by overgrown trees and the poison Ivy, Oak, and Sumac where out of control. The pond was surrounded at least or up to 3 feet from waters edge of all 3 of these poisonous plants. More review space is needed.

About the host

Hosted by Dave Humke

Host profile image
Dave and Jan Humke own this property, as well as a ranch in Colorado and land in Louisana. We spend half our time at Lake Eufaula at a home in Longtown Landing and half at our ranch in Colorado.

Why they chose this property

We first purchased this property in 2006 and began renting it on VRBO in 2010. In 2018 we rented it long term and decided to put it back on VRBO recently. We had excellent reviews with VRBO and the number one item mentioned from guests was the seclusion and sunsets.

What makes this property unique

This property provides a lot of privacy and outdoor living. The ponds are stocked with bass, catfish, and crappie. The lake is within walking distance from the house and has several coves with excellent fishing.
