Quick LOTO weekend

We visited the area to go to LOTO off-road park. Brian & Karie were very accommodating and had a place for us to park our trailer with our ATVs. Their home was spotless and as described in the listing. Beautiful access to the lake, convenient to local restaurants and attractions. Would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful Getaway!

This was my family's first time at LOTO. We will definitely be returning! I grew up boating every weekend as a child, but at a much smaller lake. LOTO is huge, and busy. What made this home so great was it is situated on a "quiet" part of the lake. Yet you were near attractions, so it was the best of both worlds. The house, while it looks small in the pictures, is actually so well organized it was a very comfortable stay for my family of four. The home was clean, it had everything we needed and even things we forgot to pack. The property manager was very quick to respond, and we had no problems at all staying there. As nice as the home was, the property itself is where this listing shines. It is on an acre surrounded by trees, making it very private. My sons are 14 and 10, but this home would have been great even for younger children. Plenty of yard to explore. The dock was huge and comfortably held our stand-up paddleboards, the boat we rented (and had delivered to the dock), and all our gear. The home is nestled in a small cove. In the mornings we could paddleboard out to the larger lake and explore. In the evenings we could boat to eateries located on the lake only a few minutes away. And when the lake was busy, we could boat a few minutes north to a great cove perfect for swimming. If we did not feel like going anywhere, we could fish or swim right off the dock. And at night we enjoyed sitting around the firepit. I cannot say enough good things about our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Karie and Brian Sparks

We are lake people. We have owned a boat and vacationed at others rental homes for the past 22 years. We finally decided it was a good time to invest in our own. We took our years of experience as vacation renters and tried to put all the comforts and amenities into this house that we have always enjoyed as vacationers in hopes of giving our guests a great experience. Our dogs are a part of our family too and we wanted a place where they were invited to come along!

Why they chose this property

We love the privacy this home offers in the middle of woods at the back of a cove. The private dock is my favorite place to be. This house offers both the opportunity for a quiet trip with nature as well as being close to so many popular local attractions like Coconuts, Jacobs Cave, the new race track, Maggie's on the lake and a convenient public boat ramp right down the road.

What makes this property unique

Peddle boat * Private dock with swing * Lily pad, life jackets and tubes provided for water fun * fishing poles and lures at the house for guests to use * gas grill * firepit * outdoor games such as connect four & washers provided * hammock * cell charging stations * plenty of private parking *
