I liked how there were extra towels, pans, dishes, utensils, citronella candles and blankets. The hosts were very helpful when I had a question and the property was very clean.

Great Location and Cabin

Great use of the space, and the patio with grill overlooking the lake is amazing for cooking and eating. Bar is RIGHT next door so can be a little noisy at night, but wasn't enought to bother us at all.

Perfect for our group!

Jessica was a lovely host! She was very clear with instructions. The property was clean and a great air equipped with everything we needed for our stay and more. A few quick steps away from Famous Freddie’s. Will definitely be coming back!

Fishing Trip

Nice place. Clean. Good dock. Nice fire pit . Great location. Could be too loud for children with bar next door. Great view on the lake but big hill to walk down for older people or bad legs. Porch could use some cleaning and repair. Will go back.

Pretty good

Pros: Beautiful view Plenty of room for our family of 7 Linens provided Washer & dryer Kitchen utensils provided Close parking Full kitchen Great hosts with clear instructions Easy check in/out Comfortable beds Lots of outdoor space (shared with other houses) Cons: 3 feet away from a LOUD nightclub. We couldn't enjoy sitting on the deck at night because the nightclub is so loud. It’s not too disruptive when you're inside the house watching TV but when the house is quiet and we were trying to sleep we heard the music & bass until 3am. I'd suggest bringing a noise machine to help drown that out because it's very loud. No fan in the bunk bed room - it did get stuffy. The kids had to leave their door open to try and get some air flow and even then it was noticably hotter/stuffier in there. I'd bring a fan with if we stayed again. Master bedroom fan is permanently on high and taps/clicks as it spins so you can choose to try and sleep with random tapping or with no fan at all. Firepit is shared with the other houses who, during our stay, just were groups of adults staying at them so bringing our kids to it did not feel OK. Overall it was fine and I'd stay again. The house itself was nice and what I expected but I would've liked to have known beforehand we would be 3 steps away from a nightclub. The house served us well for what we needed, but being able to also enjoy our nights there wouldve made it a lot nicer stay.

Excellent place to stay!

We really enjoyed our stay here. My 3 and 5 year old girls loved the bunk bed and TV in their room. Nice kitchen and bathroom, the deck has a great view to watch all of the boats. Caught some white bass, largemouth and bluegill along the shoreline. Had a nice fire in the firepit. I would highly recommend staying here! Zero complaints.

The house was beautiful, the lake refreshing.

Fast booking

My family and I had a really good time. This is a good location if you are coming in with your boat and ready for water activities, we brought our kayaks and floating mat, also the renting areas are just next door. Our kids had a blast. Jessica was a great host.

Great spot. Great host.

This was our first time staying at this property. We have stayed at other rentals on the Chain O' Lakes. This one is above par. Very clean and roomie. It slept 4 adults comfortably. Access to Famous Fredides and their boat slips was perfect. We liked it so much we plan to rent the large house and the same cabin again and bring more fiends.
