Comfy stay
We had a great time on our stay. The house is stocked with everything you could possibly want or need on a vacation. We enjoyed using the golf cart to tool around but didn’t have time to try the bikes. We especially enjoyed having the tie out for our dig since he’s used to having a fenced in yard. Rachel was also easy to communicate with and was very responsive.

Charming
The owner has supplied visitor needs and was very responsive ( timely and helpful) with any questions we had. The golf cart was a great addition. It’s an older property but is well maintained . The steps are steep but the bedrooms are large and work well for a family or group.

Lakeside Vacation 2023
We love Lakeside for a family vacation. Rachel was a great host and quick to respond to any questions. We enjoyed having a golf cart and bikes available for use, the sun porch is awesome and a cook out on the back patio set was nice as well! We loved that we could bring our dog as well. The home was well equipped with everything we enjoyed our stay and will come back again!
