EXCELLENT house. VERY well stocked. AMAZING attention to detail. Already planning return. Thanks
From the owner: "Thank you so much! We can't wait to see you again!"
We were a group of 6 (4 adults and 2 kids) and we had a fabulous stay. We had to find a new place quickly after our first place didn’t work out. The owner was so nice and got us all setup quickly. This house had everything we wanted. There was enough room for us to spread out and have our own space. The view was spectacular. Fishing off the dock proved to be plentiful. The firepit was so lovely to sit around at night. I cannot say enough about it. We would happily return in the future.

From the owner: "Thank you so much for the kind review! Please come back soon!"
My family and my best friend and her family stayed here for my daughters wedding. It was plenty large enough to host all of us plus gave me and my best friend plenty of space to bake her wedding cake and grooms cupcakes while still being apart of the conversations within the main living area. Had everything that we needed and was a great weekend.
Response from the owner: "Thank you so much for the kind review! We would love to host you again! So glad you had a wonderful weekend with your family and friends!"
My family loves exploring different lake houses around Texas. This one didn’t disappoint us at all. This is a beautiful lakefront property. The kitchen has everything you would need and plenty of storage space. The entire house is amazing with all the excellent amenities. We had plenty of space and enjoyed sitting on the back porch and on the upper level of the dock. I would definitely rent this house again! The owner Cary is the best. We really love the way she makes sure that everything is perfect and that you have a great experience, and we did! Thanks again you are the bomb!!!
From the owner: "Karl! Thank you so much for the kind review! We absolutely loved hosting you, your wife, and your lifelong friends. Please, please come back soon!"
Summarizing the high quality of our experience is difficult. I'll start with the responsiveness and assistance of our hosts. Over the top. Always answered whenever we called or texted with questions. We are a family of 11 ranging in age from 8 to 68. Everyone was impressed. My wife is so particular about cleanliness. She was delighted. The rooms were all so comfortable and well appointed. There is no feature forgotten. The lake view is spectacular from inside, on the porch or on top of the amazing deck. Are you into electronics - this place has got it. Massive TV in the great room as well as every bedroom in the house. Are you bringing a boat like we did - perfect spot. The private dock is large and supported our boat well. This place was a great place to swim in the lake and feel sheltered. If you want to cook, all the utensils are there - better than what we have at home. If you need 5 bedrooms, look no further. This place is perfect. We'll be back.
Thank you, Ted! We hope to see you again soon!
