Very pleased with our stay. The house was in a great location and was the perfect size for 8 people. The owner was quick to respond to our questions and went above and beyond to make our stay a good one.

Thank you for your kind words. Hope to see you all in the future!!
This is the best place we’ve ever stayed! Our family spent Christmas together. The home was decorated beautifully. The pool table was the highlight of the stay. We had a family tournament. One of the best places to make memories! Of course Melissa is s the best host we’ve ever had too. Thank you Melissa!

Thank you so much for your positive feedback. We look forward to hosting you again in the future.
Great weekend and let me say that the home exceeded our expectations and was far larger than we anticipated, very well kept and a gorgeous yard, had everything we needed, the lake was perfect and the family loved it. This is a place that we will come back too.
Tons of room and very comfortable! Great place for a small family or large group. We had plenty of room. Beautiful view! Wonderful back porch. Host was very easy to communicate with. We will definitely be staying here again. Can't wait!!

Thank you so much Jenna for your kind words. We are looking forward to hosting you again in the future.
Great location, even though the lake was at about 70% full still deep enough for our boat and the kids to jump off the dock about 2Oft deep. House had everything we need. Great patio and comfortable beds. We all slept great. One of our favorite rentals we’ve had so far on this lake.

Thank you for your kind review. The depth of the lake at our location was one of the main reasons we purchased the home.
So glad you all enjoyed yourselves.
We had a great time sharing Thanksgiving with our son and some friends. Our son loves to play pool that is the main reason we rented the house. He beat everyone, of course. He arrived at the house before we did. Before giving us a hug he said “Mom, this place had a pool table. it went to fast. We loved it. The bed was wonderful and the view was gorgeous.

Thank you guy or your kind words. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay.
We come here every year at the end of July and have tried several different spots. This one knocked our socks off! We already reached out to the owner to see if we can just rent it every year! They had games for the kids, great fishing at the dock and plenty of room for all 9 of us to sleep comfortably. The bed we slept in was dreamy. We are thinking of replacing our bed at home now! The place was quiet and relaxing. I highly recommend this place and will tell everyone about it!
We enjoyed the property immensely — had family from the area and Austin, Amarillo, Georgia, — great location for dock fishing, a cookout, boating (my cousin has a place on McCartney Island and a pontoon boat) and swimming, etc. The only things we missed were consistent cell service (we missed some calls), an internet connection (my sister needed to do a zoom call), and ESPN channel on TV (got the car races). We would rent again!!
Thanks so much!!!
Very spacious home that had all amenities. Location was amazing- near the dam so not a lot of traffic, which was great when we were in the water swimming. Water level was low, but we were still able to jump off the top deck and not touch! Back porch is amazing with so much seating! And the floating dock is so close! (So much closer than the pictures seem- which was great!). Overall, absolutely amazing and would definitely return! The Host, Melissa, was also so great! So quick to respond and answer any questions!

Thank you for your kind words. We loved hosting you and hope you will consider staying with us again should your travels bring you back this direction.
Check in and check out procedures were very easy. Older house but very well maintained. The yard is beautiful and the lake view is as well. Large dock that is great to swim and fish from. Beds and pillows were very comfortable which is always iffy when staying in a new place. The kitchen and bathrooms are well stocked with all the necessities. Great location and close to a marina which has a restaurant and bar. My only complaint is the amount of spider webs on the back porch and dock. We had to knock them down to move around the dock and to sit on the furniture on the patio. However, not a huge deal and will definitely not keep us from renting here again! Fun getaway!

Thank you for your input. I am sorry about the spider webs. We have tried different ways to keep them off the dock, but Mother Nature always seems to have her way.
Hope to see you again in the future.
About the host
Hosted by Melissa Hoyer
This home was purchased in 2008 by "Meme and Papa Hoyer" as a place for the family to gather. Through the years the family has shared many treasured times here with our favorite being our annual 4th of July gatherings. As the family has grown and moved away, we found that we wanted to open up our "happy place" to others and their families so that they might create some memories of their own.
Why they chose this property
This property was chosen because of its location to Goldthwaite (the city where Meme and Papa Hoyer resided) and nearness to the city of Brownwood. The home was large enough for their two sons and their ever expanding families. The boat dock rests in a deep water cove and has always had water even during some of the longest droughts in the area.
What makes this property unique
The home boasts easy access to the city of Brownwood. It has a large driveway to accommodate a large number of cars. It's location near the public boat ramp makes it easy to launch personal watercraft.
