Great spot!

We enjoyed our stay while we were in town for a baby shower. It was nice staying at the lake where I grew up. The home was spotless and the neighborhood was quiet. We had a late arrival and the house person was wonderful at communicating. We look forward to another stay in the future.

Escape to Paradise

Our stay at Paradise Lake was lovely. It was a half hour from our daughter. The house is well-appointed and has everything you need. It is very clean. Tom and Salisa are easy to work with. Our Grandkids wanted to fish but the lake was too icy. It was wonderful to celebrate Christmas and bring in 2025 with our family!

I stayed on the dock for hours: water splashed, insects chirped, large perches frolicked, herons came to visit, black scoters dove and bobbed up. Excellent golf course - Meadowview - is 13 minutes away! And two more a little further. Alamo steakhouse is 14 minutes drive; their crème brûlée is to die for! Steaks are also great :) Abraham Lincoln's family farm is 20 minutes away, so is the cemetery where Thomas Lincoln, Abraham's father, is buried. The farm is a state park, run by volunteers, filled with new (for me) information, and we met the oldest living relative of Abraham Lincoln. When we arrived, Butterfingers, Kit-Kat, Hershey's and Reese's cups waited for us in the kitchen. We will certainly be coming back!

Clean, comfortable and lovely home away from home

We truly enjoyed our four day stay at “Paradise Found.” It’s a lovely house with everything we needed. The house is immaculately clean, beautifully decorated and has very comfortable beds and furniture. The kitchen is nice and roomy. We enjoyed sitting on the very comfy couch in entrance room, which has a partial view of the lake and a TV. Nice TVs in both sitting rooms and bedrooms. We didn’t have time to use the nice back porch and yard because we wanted to spend a lot of time with extended family in the area. We hope to stay at Paradise Found again sometime.

Relaxing!!

We would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a great rental. We had a great experience and it was worth every penny. This is a great place to stay for work, or play! We would come back. The house matched the description and the host was very responsive. The house had everything we needed, including a fully equipped kitchen, & comfortable beds We would love to stay here again.
