Wonderful place! The home was clean and had pretty much anything we needed during our stay. We enjoyed the dock and fishing! Would definitely come back!
Host was very easy to communicate with. Nice house with room to spread out. Enjoyed all the lake amenities…..fishing, fire pit, fire table and more. Plan to be back when weather is warmer!
The scenery was beautiful. The host had amenities I wasn't expecting which was great. Kitchen was stocked with what we needed so we were able to cook and grill. Loved the game room setup!
The Host was quick when responding to any questions we had. The property had 2 living areas with plenty of space our family of 5 and a baby. We loved being able to bring our Boxers without any problems. Very thankful we could include the whole family on our weekend get away!

Thanks for the kind words Cynthia! Yes, we also absolutely love this hidden gem because the lake is never crowded, nor noisy (except for a week or two each year when pelicans and swans pass through on their migration ;).
My family thoroughly enjoyed this property. The house was very clean and we had everything we needed. There is enough entertainment for everyone. It is a very peaceful and serene environment.
This is the second time we have stayed here an and absolutely love it! It is an oasis away from everyday life. It has something for everyone to enjoy and the owner keeps adding more fun things to do. This is the best owner of all the houses I have rented over the years. He is very responsive to any questions you have before and during your stay. You will love it to I promise !
Very nice home on the water. Boat dock was really convenient for our boat too! Lots of game to play, grill was clean, and the beds were comfy. Will stay here the next time we are at Lake Sandlin.
Loved everything about this place. House was great - big enough for everyone with plenty of space. Pool table and games galore! Comfortable beds! Well stocked! Right on the lake with great views from almost anywhere in the house. we brought our boat and caught several fish! Mainly bass but also a catfish. The boathouse with the lift was a huge plus. Communication with the host was great! Check in and out was super easy. Would highly recommend!! -
