Truly amazing all around, we are already planning a return trip. The house has it all and is very fresh and clean. Sizable kitchen, great for entertaining. Views of the lake throughout the house. The back patio is perfect for early morning through late evening. Love this peaceful corner of the lake.

This place is a hidden gem. It was a private boat dock on the lake with gorgeous sunrise and sunset. Would have loved to hangout outside to the boat dock, but furniture and dock has plenty of spiders/spider web. It wasn't a deal breaker for us -- and would definitely stay there again. It was only less than 2 hours away from the North Dallas area.The queen bunk beds were a hit. It's very spacious for our boys with spacious room for them to play. The floor on the first floor is perfect for those traveling with pets. They have a special bed for your pets, and can safely leave them behind if needed. We rented a boat 20 mins away from the property, and they were also dog friendly and so our dog was able to enjoy boating and swimming at the lake.The bathroom's are high end and the amenities (soap, shampoo, conditioner) are not the cheap kind. Love the kitchen with gourmet cooking. I love how each room was thoughtfully designed and decorated.
