Mancation fishing trip
The house setup is great. We enjoyed sitting on the covered decks with a great view overlook the Waxahatchie. The flat top grill was a big hit. The house was well stocked and very comfortable. Great location .

What an awesome place for our family.
This was an ideal place for our family to be together. There was lots of spaces we could use to play games. Plenty of space we could find sanctuary to be alone when we needed to be. We would stay there again in a moment.

Family Christmas celebration
Very comfortable and welcoming home. We found everything we needed and more. It was a great location for family from Nashville, Chattanooga and Atlanta to join our part of the family that live in Calera AL which is only a half hour away. Love it and glad we choose this house!

Beautiful spot for a small wedding or gathering!
Chip’s place is a beautiful, peaceful lake front property with SO much space. We held rehearsal and a small wedding/reception here with about 50-60 people and the wedding party was able to stay here for the weekend (about 20 people) and it slept everyone comfortably! The kitchen is beautiful and huge and has everything you would need and there was a large, beautiful dining room table. It has several bathrooms and is equipped with a washer and dryer (and plenty of towels/wash rags/etc). The check in and checkout process was super simple. Chip was very responsive and overly accommodating and we could not have asked for a better host. The fire pit was a big hit on the chilly nights. The patio was everyone’s favorite place because of the beautiful views of the lake and the serene setting. The living room was very cozy and the guys enjoyed the setting to kick back and watch football. We will never forgot the memories made here, and I would highly recommend this gem to anyone!!

Top Notch Getaway
During our 6 day stay, we had such a fun and memorable time. The house has EVERYTHING! There are coffee pots, a French press and a coffee grinder. Also, any appliance you might need and several sets of dishes. The huge kitchen grill/griddle we used more than the stove for preparing food for 7-15 people. We brought jet skis and used the dock to launch. We used the paddle board and kayaks and fished every day. Truly a great place to gather.

Great place to get away from it all. Limited Verizon cell service and Wifi, which was great! Caught plenty of fish to have a fish fry and bring some home too. Bring your EV. There's a NEMA 14-50 receptacle available in the parking area.
