I’ve stayed here multiple times visiting my daughter at school and getting her moved in and out. What an amazing host and house. Nancy is on top of every detail, the house is always spotless and has everything you need. The lake was beautiful, we did some fishing and saw a big soft shell turtle swimming around the dock area. House has everything you need for a family trip. Kitchen is loaded with supplies so you can cook whatever you want. I will be back

Sublime stay in Deland, Florida

From the moment we walked in, relaxation was the vibe! We enjoyed the spacious living area, the outstanding view of the lake, all the wildlife and appreciated the welcoming care provided by our host. The coffee was delicious! . A leisurely time in the kayaks was the icing on the cake for a jammed pack Graduation Weekend! Thank you so much!

Excellent lakefront home

This property has everything you want and need. It is the most well stocked home I’ve ever rented. I’ve been back numerous times visiting my daughter at college. The kitchen is well stocked as are the bathrooms and bedrooms. The host is very responsive to any needs and communicates well in the time leading up to the trip.

Amazing location and home by the lake with kayaks

The house is super clean and modern. The kitchen is very well equipped. We cooked meals every day. The house is beautifully furnished. The beds and pillows are very comfortable. And my husband is picky about his beds and he gave it an A. The bathrooms are clean and good water pressure. There were lots of extra blankets, throws and towels. The view with huge windows is so beautiful, of the lake. The kids were squealing with delight. The kayaks were a huge hit. We hopped on a few times. We saw beautiful birds come by. We could see them even from inside the house. There is a very large tv and a piano ( my younger kid enjoyed). There is a laundry room that we didn’t use. We visited in March and visited the Blue Springs park close by (20 minute drive) and saw manatees. We also drove to the Daytona Beach beach - 30 minutes drive. Though the house close to the road, it was quiet. There are grocery stores close by. We also played Uno that the host had left for us. There was another interesting board game we didn’t get to. This is one of the best rentals we have done, and we have been doing it for a long time.Nancy was responsive, flexible and kind.

Perfection!!

By far, The Little Lake House was the best rental we have ever had and Nancy, as host, knocked it out of the park! The property is METICULOUS and Nancy’s thoughtful touches made it feel like home. Kudos to you Nancy for creating a perfect experience! You won’t find another property that can surpass this…do yourself a favor and book your stay.

The Little Lakehouse experience

When we arrived, we were thrilled to find a very clean, well- stocked, and organized property. It was simply but beautifully decorated, and had a booklet clearly explaining expectations (very few) , along with facts about the area, things to see, places to eat, and instructions for checking out. It’s located on a beautiful lake, with a patio that overlooks the lake. The street in front is very busy but doesn’t distract from the comfort of our visit. Is very close to route 4 that heads towards the beaches around Daytona. The owner was very helpful. We recommend this listing.alwa

Adorable Lake House

We loved this property. We have family in DeLand, and this was the perfect place for our needs. We were just minutes from family, and downtown DeLand. We also visited Blue Springs to see the manatees, which was on my bucket list! The view was beautiful, I enjoyed watching the water birds on the lake as I drank my coffee each morning. The space is beautifully decorated, very clean, and the kitchen is probably the most well stocked kitchen we've ever seen! We hope to be able to stay here again, and maybe we will have time to take the kayaks out.

We enjoyed our stay at the little lake house. It was well-appointed, immaculate, had very cozy beds/bed linens and was close to town. The view of the lake from the livingroom was lovely.

Great little house with a gorgeous view

This house was just right for four of us. There is plenty of room to make and have meals together and just hang out. The house was super clean, which is the most important. It is exactly like the pictures on VRBO. It was wonderful to open the curtains each morning and look out at the lake. A little cold to spend much time outdoors so we didn't get to enjoy the kayaks or any water activities. We did take a couple of walks around the lake and the neighborhood is super nice. If you've read other reviews, you know about the road noise. Yup, right there on a busy road, and it was under construction while we were there. A bit tricky trying to turn into the driveway, especially at night but no accidents! Lights from the cars do shine into the bedrooms at night and you can hear the cars/trucks go by. So if you can't deal with the noise I would stay away from here. Almost everything in the house is nice. Beds are comfortable, plenty of pillows, plenty of dishes in the kitchen, etc. Lanai is very comfortable and TV was perfect for the Thanksgiving football games. The dining table and chairs are a little funky and not very comfortable, but they work. All in, this worked very well for us.
