This home was very nice and cozy. The Lake view was excellent from the back deck, the den, and most of the bedrooms. It was the perfect place for the quiet and peaceful vacation I was looking for. I highly recommend this place. It was all exceptionally clean. Check in was simple and easy. Communication was very good. I highly recommend this lake view home.

Great house on a very pretty lake. Well appointed kitchen. Bedrooms were very clean and separate. Nice porch. Outdoor shower did not have a shower head. Dock could use boat cleats on left side facing lake (we had to back the boat in to use the only cleats on right side). We appreciate the stay and consider coming back next year.

Dockside of the Moon is a gorgeous, clean and well-appointed property with everything you could ask for a luxury week at the lake. The kitchen has a huge fridge and everything you need to cook meals and cool down drinks. Except for the primary bedroom, the beds were all full sized (not queen as expected) but the home is spacious and the setting is next-level. Thanks for a fun get-away!

It was GREAT! Wonderful property and no flaws. If I had any suggestions it’d be nice to have a ceiling fan in the master and on the porch. Location on the lake was ideal. Peaceful, secluded, quiet. A wonderful getaway. Would book again. We’re pretty picky, so that’s high praise!
