Fantastic stay despite rain
This was a fabulouse house in a quiet area. The house is fully stocked with anything you would need in the kitchen and toiletries if you forget to bring yours. Theres also a nice dollar general 5 min away if you need to buy anything. It was very clean on check in and the beds were comfortable. So many amentities in a great sized yard that our dogs absolutely loved, especially the lake access. It unfortunately rained most of our trip. But if it hadnt we pribably would have barely stayed inside since the patio is so comfortable and the firepit is large. We rented the boat for a reasonable price and Rob gave us a tour of the lake so we knew the logistics of navigating the lake. It unfortunately doesnt have a sand bar or beach, but we had fun anyway. We also went to Mooville and had some delicious ice cream. Rob was absolutely superb witb communication a d hospitality, I definitely reccomend staying here, our group already talked about staying for a longer period next year.

Amazing 2nd visit!
This was our 2nd year staying at the property. It’s was just as good as we remembered. The house has been well maintained. It is equipped with everything you need and more. We visited with our children and grandkids . Plenty of seating to hang out together inside or on the large back deck. Communication with the owner was great. Highly recommended if you need a place to stay in the area.

Nice house for big families
Enjoyed a family reunion at the house with 6 adults and 3 kids. Nicely stocked with games and pantry items, along with thoughtful touches like assorted chips. The water is softened, but the owner had plenty of bottled water to get us started. It was too early in the year to spend time on the lake, but there is a put in close by and it looks like a great place to kayak.

Amazing Place
When we entered the house we couldn't believe how big it was inside. The outside looked small. The kitchen was fully stocked with anything needed to cook. Very clean. The bedrooms were very nice with ROBES and SLIPPERS on the bed. The bathrooms were very clean and had everything you may have forgotten ie: toothbrush, shampoo and even q-tips. Water in the bedrooms and bathrooms. This was a very nice place to stay. I wish we could move this house to go where ever we go. We had a great time.

Exceeded our expectations
We stayed at this property for our annual family vacation. This place was by far the best house we have ever rented through vrbo. The host was wonderful and very accommodating. The place was stocked so well. There was nothing missing. There was food, soap, asprin, toothbrushes, combs, snacks..... My husband and I both commented about how this house was better than any hotel we ever stayed in. We even had robes and slippers provided. We also rented the pontoon and that process was very smooth. The pontoon was completely ready for us when we wanted to use it. This would definitely be a place we would rent again. Thank you Rob for opening up your place for us to create wonderful memories.

One memorable bachelor party
I've stayed in a lot of comfortable places, and for all kinds of reasons—from bachelor parties, New Years Eve parties, to whatever else in between parties—and can say, honestly, that this was by far the most accommodating host I've ever had. Rob went above and beyond to make sure my friends and I had little more than a comfortable stay—from our delightful fire out back to a night out on the pontoon. I can't speak highly enough about the fun we all had, and I certainly can't say enough about the host. You the best, Rob. Until next time, my friend👍
