Gorgeous view
We traaveld from Pennsylvania to Florida for my sons wedding. I wasn't really sure how the rental process works, as this was my 1st time. Hosts were great and very helpful and the house is gorgeous. I will definitly be staying here again if i go back down that way for a visit. Thank you so much for all of your hospitality!!!

Local family gathers to reconnect
We all live nearby, but getting extended time to catch up is hard, so once a year we schedule a weekend together.
We enjoyed our time here. However, July heat and thunderstorms keep us indoors alot. But with 2 living spaces we all coped very well.
Thank yoy, Ivy, for a lovely place to stay. Your snack baskets were appreciated by all. The home was immaculate and I thank you for responding so quickly to my questions.
Also, the backyard bunnies are adorable!

Wonderful house!
Wonderful house and location ! Ivy was wonderful to work with from start to finish. The house is just as pictured. The house was clean and modern and suited our needs perfectly. We were in town for a funeral, so we did not get to enjoy the lake, but it was a beautiful setting. The house had everything we needed.

Living the Lake Life
We own a home on George’s Lake and rented this property to accommodate an overflow of family. Our kids and grandchildren had a fabulous time skiing and boarding around the lake! Thank you to our hosts for providing a welcoming and lovely home!
