Summary: The location, and layout of this rental is great. Lake access and peacefulness was great. When we arrived, the tarp covering of one of the 3 guest houses blew off in a rain storm. The property owner responded quickly, but water entered into the attic area creating a musty smell in one of the buildings. Couldnt use that building for a day or so. Once we got to use that house, there were dog hairs in the bedding of one bed. The second guest house had an air conditioning problem, the outside unit had to be replaced. The owner responded quickly, but we could not use that guest houses for 1 1/2 days.The second guest house sink drain leaked once we are to get it cooled down and occupied. When we arrived, the main guest was dirty; dog hair and dead bugs scattered around. We had to sweep after we arrived. The hot tub was not working when we arrived, and never could get fixed. Once we got everyone settled in after the rocky start, we enjoyed the spacious layout, water access, fishing and jet skiing. The property needs more maintenance attention and preparation before renter arrivals.

Summary: This place was such a great place to relax & unwind. We had 5 different households that came together for our annual family vacation & this rental gave us plenty of room and lots of things to do. Fishing wasn't great caught a few catfish, but we were able to hit a few piers & found some good other fishing spots! We had couple issues but owners quickly fixed it for us, they are great to work with. If you are looking for a quiet place to unwind this is your place!! We will definitely be coming back to this rental in the future.

Summary: This place was amazing. Our guest were also impressed. Having the different dwellings allowed privacy between groups. The boat is close by also. The place was clean as well.

Summary: Everything was so nice! I loved the comfortable beds and sheets, and all the amenities. The kayaks and lake mat were hits with the kids and young adullts. Three separate spaces were great for each family to have some privacy, but still come back together as a family at the main house or outside. Our host was very accomodating and we enjoyed our stay very much. Thank you!

Summary: Wonderful property. Updated kitchens. Well stocked houses with almost everything you will need and then some. Lots of water gear. There was ample on property parking for our 4 vehicles and boat trailer but the on-street parking was at times challenging what with other nearby popular properties. Good internet used by two family members working remote. We hosted our family gathering and each family had their own house but we used the main house for meals, games, and general togetherness.

Summary: Had a great experience at this vacation rental. The location is perfect to see nature and everyone to enjoy the water. Whole family had a great time. Property provided everything you will need and as described. The only gripe would be outside the property where numerous fire ant colonies were and near the playground and sitting areas in front of homes.
