Nice quiet retreat at the end of the road. Plenty of room outback to play games. Boat launch is minutes from the house and the lake level allowed us to beach it which was nice. Sunset was great, we had clear nights for the stars to come out too, very little light pollution around.Slept our crew of nine very comfortably. Also enjoyed the back porch for morning coffee, almost has a beach feel with the waves lightly rolling onto shore.

Great place, had parking for multiple trucks and boat trailers, with public ramp 3 min away. Porch space is awesome. Kitchen was vey well equipped, all features and amenities worked as they should. Host communicated well with instructions and answered any questions promptly. Lake access involves a steep section that’s especially challenging when wet (would be tough for someone older or with hip/knee issues) but once at the water we had a nice sand beach (lake level dependent). This area of the lake has a lot of stumps and trees so we had to travel each day to enjoy water sports, but saw a lot of fishing activity in the area near the house.

Great Fishing Trip

The house was perfect for our fishing trip needs. There was some struggles with the hill to get down to the lakefront but otherwise we couldn't have asked for better.

Great location and views, super clean and comfortable.

We selected this house to stay at n when visiting Rayburn with some family friends. There were plenty of sleeping spaces for sets of parents, a couple of 16 yr old boys, and our 9 yr our daughter. Separate, comfortable, clean, and nice. We all enjoyed and hope to return in the future. The host provided excellent information to make our stay enjoyable.

Eagles

We enjoyed our stay. The beds were very comfortable, and the lake views are amazing. We saw eagles flying overhead each morning. The grassy area between the house and lake is pretty but difficult to use due to the degree of the slope and the presence of the sewer sprinkler. We had one adult take a tumble in their chair on the lawn.

Relaxing New Years Weekend

This property was very clean and larger than I expected, based on the pics. (There are 3 bedrooms plus a loft) The neighborhood was also quiet. Blake called the day before our arrival and sent clear instructions by email. The house was well stocked with everything we needed for our 4 day stay. Great views and beautiful sunsets!

Great Location, Great View, Great Stay

We rent this house yearly and always have a great stay. Location is amazingly close to the marina to put boats in the water and easy lake access directly from the house. If you’re looking for a lake house rental, this is the one!

Amazing weekend

We brought our kids and some friends. It was a beautiful property and an amazing location. After a little trouble finding it in the dark (my GPS had me turned around), we were able to contact the owner and everything went very smoothly. Tons of room and perfect for a weekend away. We will definitely keep this listing in mind in the future!

Fuselier Family

The House was great and the view even better. While the walk to the water was steep, once you got there the beach and gradual increase in the depth of the water was great for relaxing and swimming. We saw several Bald Eagles each morning along with a few deer. Overall great vacation.
