Simple but what we needed

Easy check in and allowed for late check out. Loved the baby gates for the stairs. Good AC. Simple and basic but perfect for a weekend at the lake.

Beautiful area. The home was dirty. All dishes needed to be scrubbed didnt really wanna use them. It smelt like sewage the whole time. The home is a bit old. Didn't expecty that from the listing.

Perfect for family vacation

We really enjoyed the house. It made us really feel we were staying in a lake house. The kids enjoyed the loft upstairs because they could all hangout together. They also got their own space in the basement area and their own outside hang out area. Will keep this place in mind for the future.

Great Getaway

The home has a well stocked kitchen with all of the supplies needed for cooking a great family meal or with friends. Very clean and just a short five minute drive to Orleans Trail Marina. Plenty of space to park a boat trailer twenty six feet or maybe a little larger. Definitely rent again!

Amazing!!

The home was everything I expected. It was great to be able to stay close to the lake and still have the comforts of a home. The loft was super warm but other than that everything was great. Our stay at the lake was great just wish our boat would have cooperated. I have been going to Stockton since I was a little girl. This chance to stay in a home made the lake that much more enjoyable. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Just as described

This house was clean, AC was cold, it had all the things we needed and was a step back in time for the adults and alot of what in the heck is that for the kids! It worked perfect for two boat captains/anglers and four anglers. If you want new and fancy this is not your place. If you don't mind a work in progress that is being updated a little at a time and is comfortable - stay here you won't be disappointed.

Scary, Outdated and Gross

While the owner was very friendly, it appears, through our interaction and my short notice booking of the property, it was definitely not as seemingly clean as in the pictures. At 11 pm, I tried to find the house with my Aunt. There are a few houses that resemble the rental property very closely and as I was struggling to find the house, one of the neighbors came out and was watching our every move. The street was dark and the area kind of sketchy, so it was a little uncomfortable. Eventually he yelled that we were on someone's private property, so I asked about the address of the rental. He told me it was a little further down the dark street. With no lights on, I got out with my flashlight and attempted to find the lock box. I didn't have instructions as to where it would be, so I was poking around for a bit (looking suspicious I'm sure). I headed up the stairs to the deck in order to try the doors up there. After traversing animal poop and one or two slightly broken steps, I tried the first door which appeared to be punched through. No lockbox. Tried the second door, which had a big deadbolt on it and still no lockbox. Finally, I found the lockbox on the third door and opened the door to be greeted with extremely hot, moldy smelling air. It was 93 degrees in the house because the AC had been left off. The second thing that greeted me were wasps that were flying around inside. There were some moths too, but the wasps really got to me. I turned on some lights and took note of the extremely gross, outdated carpet with holes burnt into it. Looked in the refrigerator to find some old spills and someone else's condiments from who knows when. The floorboard was warped and it was so hot and moldy smelling in there, we definitely did not feel comfortable sleeping there. After surveying the rest of the main floor, we decided that wasps, moldy air and 93 degrees was a little too much for us, so we turned around and headed back to The Cabins at Stockton Lake, where I woke my family from their sleep at 12:30 a.m. to let me in. I did not stay at the property for the remainder of the weekend. I'm sure that for some men on a fishing trip, it would be fine. However, I think that in order to market this property to a wider spectrum of renters, there needs to be some serious updating and cleaning done. Wasps are not fun to sleep with. I won't be asking for my money back because I would say it is not inhabitable, but I definitely would not recommend.

Great place

Just a ten minute drive to Orleans Trail Marina. Well equipped kitchen and lots of room for the kids. Needs some updating, but the price reflects that. I’d definitely book it again!

Lots of space and beds. Total 70s decor which was fun. Battled flys and ants in the kitchen.

Renting was easy. And clear instructions. The second bathroom is in the basement and is under construction but should be nice when it’s finished. Overall we had a good time.

Great family vaca

We had a large group of family for the extended weekend, and the house was perfect. They had a baby gates to protect the spiral staircases and we utilized them. That is such a nice touch! Thank you for that. We used the deck and grill a lot, we LOVED the deck! Everyone had a great time.

Had a wonderful time spent at the cabin. We were at the lake most of the time but it was really nice to come back & everyone hang out at the cabin. Overall it was a wonderful experience & hopefully we can do it again another time.

House with lots of personality

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The stairs are the best part! The bottom floor had a nice chill retro vibe and the loft was great for all the kids to hang out in. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. Great for having coffee on the deck in the morning. It's not luxury but it's fun!

Labor Day at the lake

We had a great time. We have stayed in many a VRBO house and this was probably the best equipped one that we have stayed in. Everything you could possibly need or imagine needing. I was worried about our four-year-old Twins and the spiral staircase but after about two times they flew up and down it like they had. always been using it. We enjoyed the large deck as well and even it was well equipped. We heartily recommend this VRBO. Thanks bunches Chelsea

Family Vaca 2019

We had to clean everything when we arrived, but it was cozy and had a working ac for top and bottom area. The binder was very helpful and the neighbors are friendly. We had a large group with all our kids and everyone had enough room to be comfortable. We hope to be back for the next several years with our same group! Thanks for the use of your hideaway.

My husband purchased the house when he taught in Stockton, but has since moved, married, and began a family. We have kept the house as a place to visit with friends and family. We are both teachers, and want to invite others to use the house when we are not using it to enjoy in hopes we are able to keep the house in years to come.
