The home is clean and very comfortable with lots of sitting areas, inside and out. Perfect location for Caddo Lake boat tour options. The host was very attentive on all aspects of the rental with quick and accurate information.

Decent place with caveats
The place isn't as beautiful as the photos make it appear. Not sparkling clean and a few lights dont work. No dishwasher either. Other than that we didnt have any troubles. Recommend it if you dont have better choices available. Kids did enjoy the front yard.

Great place
The house was nicely done. Everything we could have needed was in the kitchen. Even a crock pot (I took mine in case). The water pressure and temp was very good. We didn’t run out of hot water even with 7 people showering. We enjoyed the corn hole, canoes, etc. No one complained about the beds, so I’d say they were satisfactory.
