Family reunion year after year
This is definitely the best place we have ever stayed. We stay here year after year and each time they do more and more updates. Our family loves the quiet dead end road, the game room is perfect for the kids and the large patio is a perfect place to enjoy the shaded view of the kids swimming. It’s not too many steps to the water and the boat dock is perfect for our boat. We have also caught tons of fish.

Lake vacation
We love staying at the lake house. It is perfect for my family and our second time to rent this property. The property's is conveniently located close to the interstate and nearby stores. We really enjoyed the porch and swimming from a nice swim deck. They have a great game room which was perfect for three preteens and 1 teenager. The owner quickly responds to questions and provides good info. Highly recommend!!!

Our family vacation
We went for our family Vacation and we had some of Our relatives that lives in cullman Ala come spend Time with us. It was a very nice, relaxing, beautiful place. We really enjoyed setting out on the porch. It was so nice. It was a little bit cooler than we wanted and it rained some, but we still had a wonderful time. We really enjoyed the game room a lot. We can't wait to do it again in a year or 2. Thank you so much for everything

Quick Family Get Away
The covered level outdoor space was lovely to enjoy the view of the water. We brought my 93 year old mother-in-law and it was so nice to have everything on the same level for her. The game room being separate from the house was nice too, but does need some TLC. We thoroughly enjoyed the ping pong table, but we did go out and get our own paddles and balls because there were only two paddles and one ball and we wanted to play doubles. The foozball table didn't have a ball and I don't remember what the kids said about the darts, but they bought their own for that too. The dart board did look like it had seen better days though. The fireplace in the living room was cozy and actually could produce heat too which was nice because it was still chilly when we were there. All the beds were fine except for one in the back bedroom. They said they sunk towards the middle. My overall suggestion would be white linens and new pillows. The stovetop has a small hairline crack and I think it may be affecting the consistent function of the burners. It was like it was difficult to control the temperature. All in all though, we had a lovely stay. Thank you!

It was nice, but small living area and not as nice as the pictures showed. Nicely decorated and the king size bed in main bedroom was comfortable. Just needs updates to the outdoor furniture, the grill, and game room as they have all seen better days. Spent a lot of time on the dock. The pier and dock were nice to fish from. Tara was very responsive throughout the process.

Great spot!
We were in the area for a few days and wanted to stay somewhere serene and peaceful. This was the place. Two couples, staying in the cabins which were terrific. In fact the photos are good but don't do them justice - really sweet and roomy cabins with everything you need, easily accessible, in a wonderful lakefront spot. Highly recommended. Tara was amazing and you'll be happy you stayed there.

Thoroughly enjoyed our time. Beautifully decorated and spotless home. Hostess very quick to reply and generously left a nice fall cake to welcome us. Spent Thanksgiving with our family, it was chilly, but are discussing a return trip in the spring/summer months to have more outdoor time on the patio. Thank you for sharing your home.

Beautiful view.
Our trip was very nice . The view was beautiful on the lake. The house was very clean and tidy . We needed healing time and quite time and we got it . It's so nice and quite . The permanent neighbors were very friendly, brought my grand children up some beautiful seashells they loved . Game room was great for all of us we played darts, cards and ping pong. We spent a good bit of time there . We fished a good bit of the time , fishing wasn't very good , but I think the excessive heat had a lot to do with that . My little granddaughters did enjoy the catch and release brim . Stairs going to and from the dock were an undertaking for a few of us . But didn't stop us from going dow to the dock. Lol Over all the trip was great . We did rent a pontoon from Dunskin marina and they were super nice and we just toured the area , we did stop and swim in several locations . The water was really nice way warmer than we expected. Looking forward to coming back very soon . Hostess was great to deal with very quick answers when we ask anything. Tara your awesome . Only thing that could be improved on is there could use ceiling fans or plug in fans for the porch area . We brought ours , it allowed us more time on the porch . Thanks for a great get away 😊

Rough start but ended well.
Check in started out rough! The home is located on a very narrow dead end road and the pictures of the parking area are deceiving. We have a 26ft pontoon boat and pull it with a 4 door Dodge 1 ton. My husband was able to pull the boat up in the driveway, but we would have been out of luck getting it out, if it had not been for our son meeting us in his small SUV. Our son was able to hook his SUV to the boat trailer and get it out of the driveway the next day. After arriving, and discovering the parking situation, I went inside, only to find the home was filthy and had not been cleaned from the previous renters. Fortunately, the owner had extra clean sheets for each bed in the house. The owner was very quick to respond and did refund us $300 for the inconvenience. She was very apologetic and told me this has only happened one other time and this time, the cleaning lady had the cleaning schedule mixed up. The house itself is very accommodating for a large group of people. I would suggest future renters bring disposable cups, as there are not many drinking glasses. I also brought zip lock bags and storage containers, which came in handy. The boat dock was perfect for parking the boat and jet skis. My family caught fish from the dock and overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Location-perfect! Porch-wonderful! Hostess very responsive! Plenty of towels/sheets. Kitchen could use a bit of “tweaking “. There are not enough glasses/silverware/ cups for the number of sleepers/guests. Oven needs cleaned badly With all that in mind, I would definitely stay here again!!!

Great Location!
Great house, great location! We loved hanging out on the dock & being able to use our boat. The game room was a bonus for entertainment. We did expect there to be doors separating the bedrooms, but it was more or less beds in a side hall off two bedrooms. It still worked for us, but we thought there would be a little more privacy there. We would definitely stay here again in the future!
