Family Getaway

The location was so peaceful, just far enough away from main road. I loved seeing all of the cardinals in the area, too. Quiet, relaxing, perfect accommodations with the separate studio home for my elderly parents. Perfect.

Chloe was always available for a question. From the moment I arrived, everything was as described and welcoming. The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with all the little details that make a trip feel special. The coffee was a nice touch. I wish we would have had the chance to use to pool. The weather was too cold.

Loved the POOL!

Nice little place to stay with everything needed for comfort. The pool was clean and refreshing every afternoon. Having two houses was great since the grandparents went to bed early and enjoyed their own quiet space free of children! Also enjoyed the multiple outdoor sitting areas. Overall we have a great stay!

Great Vacation Retreat

Great place for our family! The playhouse is a plus and the pool would have been a great place to hangout if the weather would have cooperated. Location worked well for us…nice quiet neighborhood. Chloe was fantastic to work with! She responded quickly and was extremely accommodating and helpful!!! Would definitely recommend this property!

We enjoyed the property. The outside lights on the second house stayed on all night and we are use to it being totally dark so that was difficult for us at night. Other than that everything was fine, host were responsive.

This place is the perfect place for a family or a friend's weekend getaway. We absolutely loved it and had a great time. The place has two beautiful, clean and spacious homes that we thoroughly enjoyed. It has a big pool that we spent most of our time in and at night we spent it sitting under the large patio grilling and overlooking the lake. It was so peaceful and relaxing. I promise you it will a decision you won't regret. I will definitely be booking this place again and bringing my grandkids. Chloe the property manager was great, she checked on us as soon as we arrived to make sure everything was satisfactory and when we were departing. Thank you, Chloe and your team. We had a wonderful time, and we will be booking with you again.

We had a perfectly fine stay at this home. It met all our needs and communication with the managing team was great. We had a little critter in the house our first night and the management team took care of it right away! In all honesty I wouldn’t say the home is little kid friendly, though it has a few toys/amenities for the kids. The playground set is not meant for kids under six years old. And the Playhouse on the property had a door that didn’t close so I had more of a fear of critters being in there so we didn’t take advantage of that room. The dock on the property was a little sketch in my opinion, but the patio set at the top of the lake was cute. I’d recommend this home to people with older kids. The unit also needs a better cleaning (cabinets with dishes and utensils were dusty). I gave this property a 4/5 rating because it did meet all basic needs.
