This was a family holiday getaway, that felt more like a retreat. Great accommodations, plenty of space for everyone. Looking forward to returning. This would be my dream second home.
This was so nice. We came to visit family and being able to enjoy a very room place within only a short walk down to the lake was great. Would definately be interested in staying again.
We needed a rental to accommodate our off-road race team for an event, and the setup was perfect for what the guys needed. They were able to spread out, cook meals and relax between race days. The house was comfortable, very clean, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay again when back in the area. Highly recommend!
Our stay was great! Very private and cozy. The communication with the host was the absolute best!!!!!!!!! Freddy was great, always with a quick response! We enjoyed the stay so so much and we will definitely be back!
This is a great location if you’re looking for privacy. The home was nicely decorated and the beds very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and appreciated Freddy as a host.
This is as advertised in the listing:

Would recommend to anyone wanting a quiet retreat away from busy areas.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Hickory lake property. The property was very nice and the short walk to the lake gave great access to fishing, canoeing, and relaxation. The kitchen was well appointed and the beds very comfortable. We would stay here again.
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Beautiful house and property! Exactly as described, very clean! Easy check in/ out, fast response from the owner. One of the nicest rentals I've stayed in! Would definitely recommend!
Great place, very clean! You drive down a few dirt roads and the house is a cute cabin. The house was very clean and the owner answered messages quickly. We had no issues with our stay and would recommend it to a friend!
Freddy was very responsive. The house was very clean and decorated nicely. There’s a walk down to the lake but we didn’t mind. I enjoyed mornings on the dock and we rented the boat from Freddy. It was a great time on the lake!
The kitchen was amazing, better than any rental we have ever had. The lay out was a bit decieving, the game room is not a game room. It does sleep 8 comfortablely.
Very clean and well maintained home. The ad gave the impression (to us anyway) that the lake was adjacent to the house, but it was actually a walk down a trail. Not too far or inconvenient. Trail to lake and outdoors could use some grooming, but again not a hindrance to a good time. Price is right. We enjoyed ourselves and would use again.
This place was a charming sanctuary and a great stay. First of all, I will say that I am a bit of a clean freak when it comes to hotels and vacation rentals. But this place exceeded all expectations with impeccable cleanliness and thoughtful set up. Laterally I have stayed in world class luxury hotels that could take some lessons from how clean this home was.
The home is tucked into this quite little spot that really feels like a sanctuary. There is nice outside space and the home itself is well appointed.
The property manager was responsive to request and super nice to work with.
All in, one of my best stay experiences anywhere.
THANKS!
Property was as advertised. House was very clean. Kitchen is well stocked. We cooked our Thanksgiving dinner without any issues, I would suggest you bring storage bowls for left overs and prep, besides that there is a good collection of pots, pans, blender to use. We had 6 adults and two children stay with us and my daughter (and family) and son who live in the area came to hang out with us. We did did not feel crammed. We enjoyed the yard, firepit and the dock area. Owner responded in a timely manner to our questions. Definitely a great place to rent.
We enjoyed our stay at Freddy's property. The property was spotless and well appointed. There was ample bedding and bathrooms, as well as dining space. We took advantage of the boat rental for 6 days and so glad we did! It's a bit of a hike down to the boat dock (back up is worse ;) ), but well worth it. Lake Hickory is beautiful and peaceful. We had a little issue with the thermostat continuing to reset at a higher temp than we would have liked, but it was manageable. Freddy was responsive and very easy to work with.
The only suggestion I would make is to have some sort of a nightstand and possibly a small dresser in the large bedroom that houses 2 king beds. We had to use a dining room table as a nightstand.
All in all, it was a great stay!
Over all great place to stay! Very clean! Just wish the family of three cats would of hung out somewhere else other than the deck. They tried to enter the house every time door was opened. Family member was bitten on finger. These cats attacked my husband by jumping on him, yes I said jumped. They leaped onto his chest. Please check into the unwanted CATS at this property! Oh and as read free kayak to use. It was a canoe with no paddles. But overall house and location was perfect.
