Great stay!

Enjoyed our short escape from the metroplex during spring break. The lake house has a fantastic view of lake, huge lot, and a beach volleyball court that we used everyday. All the necessary amenities are available and everything you need is there. Definitely will look to stay there again in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property, with 3 full bedrooms/bathrooms between the house and guest house. The backyard is laid out very well, with plenty of room for outdoor activities. And we felt that the provided amenities went above and beyond our normal expectations.

Family visit of home town

We returned back to my husbands home town for a celebration of life and reunion of family and friends. Location was very ideal & provided beautiful lake views. Loved the convience of having a guest house with its own lake view patio Providing additional living space and privacy for couples. Great fireplace and outdoor patio with plenty of backyard entertainment , outdoor games, etc.

review on house

House and property was fine. The house wasn't in the best neighborhood and you couldn't close the gate to secure yourself in at night. House had a really bad smell to it that lasted the whole time we were there, but overall, it was fine. We just lit all the candles they had in the house.

Gates close, there is a clicker and code provided. The neighborhood is plenty safe and not sure why you’d say that. Plenty of families and vacation homes. The smell you stated was not brought up or shared to us. The guest prior and after you mentioned nothing of it either.

246 Harbor Dr Stay

Overall the property was nice and we enjoyed our stay. The owner should have more clarity on use of boat dock. No written rules on property stating not to use dock under any circumstances. Lift remotes were left on counter (assuming for use while staying). Late on Second night of stay we received a text directly from owner stating we need to remove boat from lift. Cleanliness and lay out were as advertised. Overall rating 4 of 5 with only complaint being lack of communication on boat dock use.
