Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear the property exceeded your expectations and that you enjoyed your stay. We’d love to host you again anytime!
The House was fantastic, it was really cool to stay in, and the Log Cabin style was comfortable and beautiful. The backyard was awesome with great access and seating on the banks of Cypress Creek. Hope to book the Mill Race Lodge again.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Log Cabin style, found it comfortable and beautiful, and loved the backyard along Cypress Creek. We’d be delighted to welcome you back to the Mill Race Lodge anytime!
The only downside is we couldn't stay longer. Oh, and there was a burn ban, so we couldn't have a fire in the wonderful fire pit by the creek. Beautiful property in a beautiful location. Highly recommend, and hope to be back again for a longer stay.

The location of the property was convenient for walking into town. The backyard facing the creek provided a nice environment to hang out throughout the day. The interior of the house was clean and cozy. I would recommend this VRBO to friends.

We rented this gorgeous house as a Spring Break getaway and it was perfect. Very clean and within walking distance to the main shopping area. The home had everything we needed! Even though the water was still a little chilly, we really enjoyed the beautiful pool. We would definitely like to stay again. Thank you to the owners and property manager for making our stay so enjoyable.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that the house was perfect for your Spring Break getaway and that you found it clean and well-equipped. It’s great to know that you were able to enjoy the beautiful pool, even with the chilly water! We’d love to welcome you back for another stay in the future. Thanks again for choosing us, and we’re so glad we could make your stay enjoyable!
This place was perfect for our girls weekend! It was a beautiful, spacious, and homey cabin. There were so many amenities: the pool, a basketball court, lounge chairs by the fire, access to the lake. The location is a short walk into town, but would not recommend doing the walk after dark because the road leading into it is very poorly lit at night. We loved our stay so much that we all plan on renting it again with our families and children!
