Camp

Views amazing. Inside clean , kitchen needed organizing. Outside was great set up with children. Again just a little bit of yard maintenance would have been great. Kids loved kicking all the leaves but we didn’t want to have s’mores until we cleaned up leaves around the pit. Fishing off dock was fun for our grandchildren. Can not top the views of the beautiful sunset!

Great Location! Roomy house! Great views!

Great property!. Loved the room inside the house! There were lots and lots of spider webs and bugs inside that tells me it either had been a long time since last stay or the property isn't getting cleaned properly. There was poison ivy stretching out to across the sidewalk and entrance to front of house. No lights on the dock over the water either. Overall the stay was nice, however it could have been better had the property have better upkeep and TLC.

Quiet and comfortable

This older property is well maintained and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped with paper products provided. the split bedroom arrangement, each with a bath, was perfect for two couples. The internet did not work, which was not critical for us but would certainly have been appreciated. We got the impression that the cabin had not been stayed in for a while, as there were spider webs under some furniture; otherwise, it was clean. Checkout was easy and required very little effort from us--thanks!

Too much traffic

There is too much activity by the water. No lights down on the dock and the boat hoist looks like it hasn’t been used in a really long time. From the pictures we thought we would be able to launch the boat and leave it in the water. Nice open house and plenty of room, just wished we could have enjoyed more fishing on the dock.

Misleading pictures

The inside of this accommodation was clean but all pictures of the outside are misleading. I’m sure at one time they did look like this but the house needed attention. For the price we were expecting what the pictures the showed on the website. Vent for stove under microwave has about 1000 dead bugs on it. This is not a Lakehouse it’s more of a camp.

Great family vacation

This was a great spot for our family vacation. Normally every year we go to Destin but due to work schedules we were not able to go and found this place at Toledo, which is an hour drive for us. It is a great place to stay with amazing views, certainly at sunset. Toledo town is a couple minutes away with grocery stores and a restaurant incase you forget something or don’t feel like cooking. We brought our boat and took it about 5 minutes south to the island in front of cypress bend. We found a nice little sandy spot to hang out and swim. It was a great vacation for us.

Toledo

The cabin was clean and the location was nice. The page says the cabin sleeps 8, I wouldn’t say that is very accurate. We had a hard time with 6 people making things fit. There were no blankets for the sofa beds or sofas. The only way we could have slept 8 is with air mattresses. Overall, this was a nice place but don’t expect to pack 8 people in here.

It was ok

The dock definitely needs work, broken steps and boat lift was broken, it is extremely high, with cliffs on both sides so I don’t Recommend small children. Location is good and The rental itself is extremely clean and cozy. We were just disappointed there wasn’t more clarification on the dock, pictures are misleading

Cute cottage .. clean great view !

This was a sweet cottage with a great view and very clean and convenient to stores close by . My only issue is that the mechanical boat winch needed to be fixed which meant we had to take the boat in and out daily due to waves . The fact that the boat winch was broken may have even been in the description, can’t remember . This place would be perfect if that was fixed .

Nearly perfect weekend

Everything about this place was just as described, and the camp was very well-stocked! Pots, pans, utensils, lighter fluid…nice high-quality appliances and grill! I would stay here once per month if they can repair the boat lift…big lake, too rough to leave the boat at the dock without a working lift!! Please repair this and I’ll be back!!

Nice place on the water

We enjoyed our time here. Property had pretty much everything you could need. Just a note about sleeping 8, 2 people will have to use small cots to sleep on. It worked fine for our 6 year old but might be tight for an adult. The Hide-a-bed was comfortable but somewhat squeeky.

Wonderful Place

Enjoyed a peaceful and quiet few days at this property. The property was just as described in terms of cleanliness and neatness, and the view of the lake was great. Very nice and quiet, and all of the other camps in the area were just as nice and clean. Great area overall! The community boat launch was very nice and easily accessible, and one of the residents even came down while we were launching one day and informed us of a couple of spots to try and fish. The only downfall/inconvenience was having to drive the truck and trailer back to the camp after launching, then having to load the boat back on the trailer after fishing. This was only because the wind blew pretty hard a couple of evenings so I couldn't leave my boat tied to the dock (due to the water being so rough). However, one evening the weather was calm and I was able to leave it at the dock overnight. I would definitely consider staying here again!
