Beautiful lake house with everything we needed for the week! The lake view was spectacular and we enjoyed swimming, fishing and watching the boaters from the nice dock! The kitchen is very well stocked and there was even firewood for the fire pit! We couldn't have asked for a better stay or better hosts!

We loved our relaxing weekend here! The owner was quick to respond when I reached out with a question, and the house was stocked with everything we needed to eat in. The lake view was so beautiful from the full window back deck doors, the area is peaceful and quiet, and the deck and backyard is beautifully landscaped. Would definitely stay here again.

This was a wonderful place to stay! The house was clean and fully stocked with everything we needed. The wireless chargers in each room were a major plus! We had a total of 10 people, 6 kids ages 6-16 and 4 adults, and still had plenty of room with adequate privacy for all. We had absolutely no complaints and are looking forward to staying in the future!

Just WOW! Ours hosts’ Bland and Gwynn thought of everything to make our stay beyond pleasant! Phone chargers on the night stands. Thick, large bath towels. Detailed instruction on ALL of the home’s features. This was not a typical vacation rental. Far from it. This was like going home. If you are looking for peace and serenity, this is your place. You will NOT be disappointed. EVERY need and want was anticipated by our hosts’. And they did not disappoint. This home was comfortable and relaxing. Top quality furnishings and creature comforts. I consider this location to be in the superior category. And I am not exaggerating. We started planning our return before we left. Our Hosts’ made us feel as though we were staying at our home-away-fro-home. Advice: use the fire pit for hot dogs and marsh mallows. Make it to Angie’s Decatur Diner for the homemade chicken and dumplings. On a scale from 1-10 I rate this stay a 12. Our expectations were exceeded in every aspect during our stay. Highly, highly, HIGHLY recommend this property. The solitude and sounds of nature are unmatched. Well with the cost. Enjoy your stay. I know you will!

If you are looking at this house, book it!! It is perfect! This was the most well stocked and clean place we have ever stayed. The hosts were amazing and stayed in contact to make sure our stay was perfect. Our kids loved the basement with tvs and bunk beds. We played on the supplied lily pad in the river for hours and hours. We will definitely be back.
