About this property

Lay Lake - On main Channel in private area. With Hot Tub and Kayaks

If you are looking for privacy then this is the place for you. House rests on a peninsula with private entrance. This is southern comfort at its finest. Sit and relax on the oversize pier. Perhaps take in a view of the lake from the hot tub. Maybe spend the day exploring the lake by kayak. Come and see what a true southern porch looks like from our porch swing. Even bring a boat and spend the day fishing to get away from the days news. Must be 24 years old to rent.

This is an amazing property! Everything about it was perfect. The house was so clean and comfortable. I like to cook and the kitchen was stocked with everything needed to make amazing meals. The porch overlooking the lake was also a highlight. Morning coffee watching the sun come up over the lake. We look forward to staying here again!

The house was in a perfect mid-lake location with a beautiful view from the porch. There is not much to add or change as this was a perfect stay for our fishing tournament. This is a very nice property with everything you need to enjoy a stay at the lake.Thank You,Mitchell

About the host

Hosted by Mike Hand

Host profile image
Rita and I have 4 boys all married with 6 grandkids. We use VRBO when we take vacations and understand what it takes to have a great stay away from home. When the home is not rented, we enjoy having all the family meet us there. We love the lake and hope you will enjoy as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

Our home is secluded with a private driveway. The waterfront is all seawall. Plus the dock is oversized with Kayaks and paddle board for your use. The views are beautiful and you are just the right distance from the water.

What makes this property unique

We have a long country style porch with a swing one one end and a hot tub on the other.
You will enjoy any time spent here!
