Lake House Retreat

For my wife and I it’s a great and relaxing retreat that’s close to family and friends. House felt like home, we loved the view in the back sun room and the covered dock was awesome.

Loved the property! The house was easy to find and the lake was beautiful. The home itself was clean and inviting. We loved the sun room / porch area! It is in a rural area and it was very quiet. I liked the security of being in a gated community. The location was perfect for Seacrest Wolf (about 10 mins). Its about 50 mins from Panama City Beach. We loved our time here and would stay here again!

Astounding

We felt at home the second we walked through the door. The house was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. The beds must have been made out of clouds, because they were unbelievably comfortable. The location was fantastic, and the lake view was stunning! We will absolutely be staying here on our next trip.

Our Home Away From Home

We absolutely love this lakefront home! We’ve stayed here twice while visiting family in the area, and each time has been wonderful. The property is beautifully maintained and offers everything you could want for a relaxing getaway. The view of the lake is stunning, especially at sunrise and sunset, and we love starting each day with coffee in the Florida room. The home itself is cozy, spotless, and stocked with thoughtful touches—from board games to kitchen essentials. The layout is perfect for family gatherings, with spacious common areas and comfortable bedrooms. The private dock is fantastic for swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The owners are incredibly responsive and accommodating, making sure every detail is covered for a seamless stay. We look forward to returning every time we’re in the area—it really feels like a home away from home!

Our 2nd stay

We stayed here several years ago and it’s still a great place to stay. The home is conveniently located north of the PCB crowds and near several lovely State parks. However, you can sit on the dock and enjoy watching the fish jump or take the jon boat out on the beautiful lake. Immaculately clean and well supplied, I highly recommend this home.

Very relaxing and peaceful

We had a lovely time. We stayed here on 2 different occasions, and plan on returning again. Beautiful setting, quiet, relaxing and a perfect home for family. The boat dock on the lake is the ideal place to watch the sunset. The owner Don has always been more than helpful. And look forward to our next visit.

GREAT PLACE TO JUST RELAX

What a great place to stay and enjoy northern Florida! We were there for a month and enjoyed it very much. The home is very well maintained with ample room and is stocked with all of the necessary cooking utensils and dishes that you might need. The lake view and sunsets are fantastic and beautiful. Would very much consider visiting again!

Visiting my son and wife

I rented this very comfortable home to visit my son and wife for 2 weeks. It was very clean and well stocked. They live near by, but this made it more comfortable for all. The home is lovely, and sits on a very calming lake. The neighborhood is very quiet and great for walking. I will definitely return for my next visit. The owners were very attentive and available if needed. It was a great experience.

House was excellent. Fishing could be better, but that's not the hosts fault - we'll blame it on the east winds. The house and property were as expected.

Paradise Lakes weekend

My family enjoyed our three day weekend at Paradise Lakes. The home is very clean and comfortable. The view from the back of the home onto the lake is fabulous. This home is approximately 30 to 40 minutes from Panama City in a rural area of Washington County, FL. It is very peaceful. It is perfect for some "chill" time and to reconnect with friends and family. If that is what you are looking for, then you will enjoy staying here.

Chipley Lakehouse

Was exactly as advertised. Pictures are accurate. Distance to Panama City was a little longer than anticipated. We drove to PCB twice each day. The lake was just beautiful though, wish we had more time to have fished it, but 3-4 hrs a day on the road to and from PCB takes a lot of the day. No restaurants in Chipley. I recommend this stay, however, it was nice to get away from the chaos of the beach. The neighborhood was very nice and quiet.
