I have no idea why VRBO states that I would not rent to you again that is a mistake. I apologize. I have no idea why it says that not sure if you can see it but I see it. Please fix that VRBO! I would definitely rent to them again.

Beautiful, immaculate, comfortable home. My family loved it, especially the dock. Plenty of seating inside and out. The beach area was nice for my grandbabies. Tom and Rebecca are very nice and helpful and truly went above and beyond to make our stay the best possible! We hope to return again in the future!

Goldie Locks of Kingsley Lake!

This house is JUST RIGHT!! It is ultra clean and tidy - it's a great size, the beach area is perfect for smaller kids and the dock is little slice of heaven. These owners do a fantastic job of keeping the property in a great shape. It is so welcoming and we never wanted to leave.

So relaxing and fun.

This was our second trip here and was just as relaxing and pleasant as before. The hosts were great to work with and made everything so easy to use. The kids absolutely love swimming in the dock area and the amazing covered dock is where we spent most of the time when we weren’t on the water. We will definitely be back again!

Perfect family vacation❣️

Kingsley Lake is the perfect lake to enjoy if you like being outside and on and in the water! The dock for this property was absolutely perfect! You could enjoy being in the sun as well as being in the shade because both areas were provided. My only wish is that it could somehow accommodate a larger group… I have a family of 16 and only 2/3 of it could come this year… I would definitely come again❣️
