We really enjoyed our stay at Lake Whitney. The place is absolutely adorable and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed, including a refrigerator, stove, microwave, and coffee maker, which made our stay very comfortable. We especially appreciated the plenty of hooks available for hanging towels—such a small detail, but it made a big difference. We did run into a minor issue during our stay, but the owner was very responsive and resolved it quickly, which we truly appreciated. The view is breathtaking, and the location is wonderfully secluded and peaceful—perfect for a relaxing getaway. We would definitely stay here again!

The cottage was clean and inviting. The fishing decor was fun. Cooking was easy because the kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans. The back porch and yard with view of the lake was lovely, just as I hoped it would be.

Great little "cabin". Easy access to the private swim cove. Beautiful backyard and georgous view of the lake. Very clean and spacious. Internet was spotty, but understandably so since it was stormy. The drive into the neighborhood is kinda sketchy (very rough bumpy roads even in my big truck and trailers/abandoned looking cabins all over). BUT, the cul-de-sac that the property is actually on has much safer vibe. Once you're inside it's very peaceful and beautiful. I'd stay there again. Just wasn't expecting the "rough" drive in.

The home was very clean and spacious. The pictures don’t do it justice with how roomy it really is inside. The furnishings were very comfortable, both inside and outside. We enjoyed sitting in the Adirondack chairs by the fire pit with a view of the lake, and from the tree swing, The porch furniture was comfy, as well. Joe was very friendly when we met him in person. We highly recommend this lovely lake cottage if you are looking for a relaxing place to stay.
