Great location and close to local amenities, stores and restaurants. The view is spectacular and neighborhood is quiet. We spent most our time on the water so this worked out perfect to lay your head down and get some rest. Only negative is no TV in bedroom if you want to nap or rest in there but we were mainly there for the Lake.

Perfect place!

Perfect place to stay when visiting Rayburn. Clean!! Comfortable beds, stocked kitchen and a great place to tie your boat up on property when you need a break. Most advertise pull boat up to property and you cannot. Property has a dock!

Great view in a cozy cove

Rental is a garage “apartment” for the house next door. As the rental living space is all upstairs, it provides great views of the lake. Cozy place for a weekend getaway for the two of us. Very peaceful and quiet with all amenities needed for a nice stay. Close enough to a few restaurants and dollar store for any missed necessities on the packing list. Unit was clean and thoughtfully decorated. Would stay again.

No issues with the booking. The homeowner was MORE than courteous in helping me cancel the booking because we were unable to come up and stay. We will most definitely be calling her again to come and stay! Thank you again!

Great location. Few minor issues.

Overall, I enjoyed my stay. The location is next to the water with a very short walk. Fishing was pretty good but I visited shortly after Hurricane Laura rolled through. Night 1, the stove didn't work (breaker was off). It was eventually fixed but had to make alt dinner plans. Day 2, the power flickered off and on a couple times. The last morning I was there, the power went out completely and the inside temps rose to 80 by 9am. Luckily I was leaving.

Bass fishing

I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the entry way. Once you unlock the door and open it the concrete floor had lots of bugs and the walls were very dirty. The stairs to go upstairs was carpet and smelled and extremely dirty. The place was smaller than expected but not a problem since it was just 3 of us. There were ants in one of the drawers and when my mom went to make coffee (which no coffee was provided only the maker) there was mold in the coffee maker. The toilet was dirty and the shower head is very old and needs to be replaced. There was no hair dryer or extra toilet paper. I did send a message to the owner about the toilet paper and hair dryer. They provided 2 rolls of toilet paper and the following day they provided a hair dryer. The listing states there is a hot tub however I could not find it. For the price that I paid for the 3 nights I was expecting the place to be cleaner since I did pay for a cleaning fee. I have never given a bad review before and I stay at a lot of VRBO's but I feel that future renters need to be aware.

Great week!

We travel to San Rayburn annually in the spring and this year was among our best! Property was clean and as described, easy to find, with clear instructions. Owners were quick and clear in their communications and were very accommodating. We would definitely recommend others to stay here if they get the opportunity! Quiet cove/area, with access to everything you would need for family relaxation and fun.
