The pictures of the property on here are beautiful but seeing it in person is amazing. We spent so much time on the deck in awe of the view everyday. Because of all the amenities provided for the lake we were able to have fun right away with kayaking and fishing. There is also a deck with a ladder for swimming. It was so serene and made us feel connected with nature again. The property feels safe with a large gate and lock keeping the entry to the drive secure and a large front yard for the kids to play in away from the edge of the cliff. Roasting marshmallows around the large and sturdy fire table set and relaxing in the hot tub with massaging jets and lights was a favorite at night. Its about an 8 minute drive to get to a Dollar General, gas station, and a variety of fast food. The things that were provided on hand were so thoughtful and in 3 full days we only ever left for groceries and a pizza because the property was so much fun. We are already talking about planning our next booking here and miss it already.

We stayed for 3 nights in mid-March and overall we really enjoyed it. We weren't blown away when we pulled up (house looks really bland, fence/gate looks like you're pulling up to a prison lol), but once we got inside and to the deck thats when we got excited. The inside was extremely clean and the owners go the extra step of leaving lots of toiletries, snacks and other goodies. The shower in the main bedroom was SO GOOD! I took full advantage of it with some extra long, hot showers. The cabin is small, but perfect for us.
The deck with hot tub overlooking the lake down below was the best part. We loved the large firetable with room to put a drink out or put your feet up while the fire is going. The hot tub was large! We've stayed in so many VRBO's (always with a hot tub) and this one was definitely a better size than most. I wish the cover when stood up was on a different side so it didnt obstruct any of the view, but that certainly wasnt a big deal.
As soon as we arrived we took a walk down to the other side of the lake and were blown away with how beautiful, serene and private it was. There's a large pier as well as a big gazebo to hang out underneath. We didn't fish but could see lots of big ones that made us want to drive to WalMart to get some rods.
The one disappointment for us was that there is absolutely nothing to do in the area. Once we realized that we just decided to stay in for the most part and enjoy the cabin/property.
We would go again!

Very nice property that made a great visit. The private lake is the main draw, and is well worth the trip.

The property was as advertised. Very secluded location with plenty to do on the property. Shopping was less than 15 minutes away to get essentials. Other than that their is no need to leave. Will definitely stay again
My family which consists of myself, my husband, our children (4 boys ranging in age from 8-20) and my parents had the best time! We decided to try something other than a beach vacation this year and are so glad we did. It was such a relaxing time. We spent our days kayaking, fishing, floating in the lake and admiring the beautiful views from the back patio and looking up towards the house from the dock. There were 3 kayaks available at the lake and we brought 2 more of our own. We brought several floats and were glad we had those. Our children has a blast fishing and were able to catch countless bluegill, the bass were more of a challenge! My only complaint would be that it the weather was insanely hot while we were there so we did not get to take advantage of the hot tub or the beautiful back deck as much as I would have liked to!! The inside of the home was modern and clean, the master bedrooms had an amazing shower, everyone took turns using it. We are already talking about making a trip back when the weather is cooler so we can explore more of the property and the trails!!!
