This property really was home away from home. They provided everything you would need for a great vacation. Randy wasn't kidding when he said to pack light. Bring your food and enjoy. Very close to the boat ramps at rathbun lake. The only issue we had was the parking is tight with a boat and 2 vehicles. We made it work. Very nice place and we will surely be back.

Our stay at Randy's rental was great! Randy checked in with us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. Of all the VRBO properties we have ever stayed in, this was by far the most well stocked and decorated. We found everything from Q-tips in the bathroom to paper goods and ziploc bags in the kitchen. The place certainly felt like a home away from home. If you're visiting Rathbun it's the place to stay!

Our true home away from home

We are so comfortable here, while we are staying we refer to it as going hoe when we are away. Even our dog feels at home and recognizes it when we arrive as a safe place. As usual the location was ready and inviting and we hated leaving.

Favorite stay!!!

We have been staying around Rathbun lake now for around 6 years. This was by far our favorite place we’ve stayed. When it says all you need to bring is food and drinks that’s exactly what it means. Randy goes above and beyond. Highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be booking this from here on out if it’s available

Awesome accommodations and perks

Never felt more comfortable in an unfamiliar place and Randy is the host that everyone is looking for when it comes capitalizing on a getaway. We had a good time and will be back again. Just like home. You get the best attention I have ever seen from a host and he is readily available to answer any questions you may have. Had a great time.
