It's a beautiful location with a fabulous long range view.. We also had fun paddling out to Goat Island too!!Leisr Stays was very responsive to our needs during our stay.

Thanks for the great review. Glad the location worked so well for your family and that the dock made launching your boat, SUPs, and kayak easy. Fantastic to hear you enjoyed paddling out to Goat Island and the long-range views. Happy we could be responsive during your stay — we’d be pleased to host you again.
Beautiful place with a beautiful view!!! Would recommend for anyone looking to visit Lake James. The only criticism I have is that the driveway is somewhat narrow with brick walls on the side and was difficult to pull in or out with my truck.

Thanks for the great review. Glad you enjoyed the beautiful place and view and that you’d recommend it for visiting Lake James. Appreciate the feedback about the narrow driveway and brick walls making truck access difficult — we’ll pass that along to our team as we consider ways to improve. We’d be pleased to host you again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was as advertised and the kitchen was well appointed for our needs. Comfortable bedding and plenty of towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo, etc. Dock access was easy for our elderly family members so they could enjoy boat activities. Check out procedure was simple and straightforward. Host was highly communicative throughout the stay!
It was very clean well stocked with everything you would need, towels for lake and bath, soap, shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels and more. We enjoyed our stay and the wonderful view.
I would only suggest that there would be at least 4 chairs around fire pits and under deck Infront of lake.
Having great communication with the host was a great experience. Any questions or concerns we had were answered promptly. Accommodations were as described in listing. Only recommendation we would offer would be to have an exterminator take care of the spiders and cobwebs before guests arrive. Bottom line, it was a beautiful week and stay. Look forward to coming back.

Thank you for the thoughtful review. I’m glad communication was prompt and the accommodations matched the listing. I appreciate the note about spiders and cobwebs. We’ve scheduled pest control and reminded housekeeping to pay extra attention to corners and outdoor areas before arrivals. Happy you had a beautiful week, and we look forward to hosting you again.
