Great Getaway Spot

Enjoyed the cabin for a family retreat. Location is right off state highway, so you will still have road noise. But lake view is great.

Wonder family Vacation

Bernadette was the sweetest, friendliness lady, we just loved her. We had a fantastic family vacation. We took our adult children, grandson and dogs and we all had a blast fishing, swimming, kayaking and boating. My husband loved that he could dock his boat on the property. Thank you for a great family vacation.

Not the best place e to fish. More of a couple retreat.
Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 4 Aug, 2022
Not a correct review - many people fish and do well here, including as shown in some of the example pictures. But Melissa's family rented our Jon boat and wrapped their fishing lines so full and tight in the trolling motor, and kept trying to run it bound up and burned the motor up. We were gracious and they agreed to pay $50 for their damages but then we paid $120 plus labor to replace it. We try to help give instructions and help people to fish if they want, it's a good place to fish at right times and with right baits or lures, and we are more than happy to help, do help many, and some help us too. Anyway, we are happy to help if you would like some help. Thanks for your comment.

Great Summer Getaway

This property has all you need for a fun, yet relaxing getaway!!!! My kiddos loves the loft beds! We did rent the power boat and had a blast! Rick and Berdenette were incredibly polite, nice, and available for any questions! Bonus - Bernadette provided us with life jackets for lake fun!!!

Cute cabin - location assessible to places we wanted to go

Overall good. Spouse in wheelchair so the wood ramp was ok getting onto the cabin area. A grab bar in bath commode area would've been helpful. Owners were friendly and gracious. A bit of road noise. Pet friendly and overall good experience.

Cozy and comfortable

The cabin was equipped with everything we needed. It was very close to the lake. The communication between us and the host was very good. We were able to rent kayaks there which was a plus. Everything was in working order. Will definitely be coming here again. I recommend for families looking for a small get-away.

It was very nice

The owners are amazing!! They truly care about the people that come here. The cabin was nice and big and had everything we needed. It was also very clean. The AC's worked great but they were VERY loud which made it a bit hard to sleep. Even though it says swimming is available; the water was very dirty and brown. And we were informed that there is a baby alligator now. So we chose not to go swimming. The only thing we didn't like was the fact that there were spiders everywhere. On the outdoor furniture/cushions. The fishing pier and boats and the playground. And I don't mean your occasional bug/spider because you are outdoors. I am talking about hundreds of them. There were nests and webs everywhere. If they would be gone this would have been one fantastic vacation!! Overall it was really nice there and we enjoyed our visit very much :) Thank you Bernadette and Rick for being amazing hosts.

Thanks for your comments Martina. We took apart that one AC, changed the water drain line to other side, & gave it deep coil and fan clean and its back to very quiet now.l but very sorry for that inconvenience. Baby alligator actually left the week prior - as stated in listing when one comes once per year around same time it doesn't stay long cuz of too much activities and that size baby can only eat max bullfrogs so no real issue there.l and many of us are swimming, fishing, and boating. Spiders are tough, I do spray and have bug zappers but we are at the lake and have trouble keeping them away from all the grounds just like all the other places up here have similar issue in the lake - the spring birds are back and helping eat them though.
