We absolutely loved it!! Beautiful location and view. Very cute place and fantastic if you have a large family that you need accommodations for. Host replied right away when I had a question and was very helpful to us! Wish we could have stayed longer!! Thank you!!
Large, beautiful home on the lake. The house is perfect for large groups. A large kitchen / dining room / family room area with plenty of room for a large family. The house is clean, well decorated and comfortable. Most everything you need is provided. Restaurants and stores are nearby. The host is welcoming, flexible and easy to communicate with.

So glad you were pleased with your stay!
We personally love this home and love spending time with family here. We continue to make home updates and reflect this on VRBO. Newly refreshed back porch, upgraded dock to resin, and new living room furniture are some of our latest enhancements.
We had a very relaxing stay iat this lakefront property. It was comfortable and clean. It was also convenient to restaurants and Publix.Beds were comfortable Would definitely recommend staying here.

Thank you for the review! We are very happy that you had a relaxing stay at the lake house. It is so nice having a Publix a couple of miles away. Also, they are in the process of building a second Publix about two miles away as well (south on Hwy 44) which will be nice.
We had a great time. Loved the location, close to everything

Thanks for the review! We love the location as well. There is a new restaurant (take out only) called Dough Daddy Dough that is next door to the growler place. They sell Chicago style pizza and hot dogs, as well as crepes. It's a great place is walk to if you don't want to cook or go out to eat.
Awesome place! Plenty of space, and on the water! The dock had a tree fall on it a few weeks prior and the owners were very accommodating and up front about the damage. Awesome trip! May book this place again!

We are so glad you enjoyed your visit and would love to have you stay again with an upgraded dock! We appreciate your understanding as we work through the repair process. The tree has been completely removed and now they are starting on the dock.
Thank you for the kind review.
This property was ideal for a great family time. Very comfortable stay and fun for everyone. Everything you need from the kitchen, front yard, very kid friendly and comfortable basement, to the back deck is here!

Thanks for the very nice review! We are happy that you enjoyed your time at the house.
A group of 8 of us stayed for a weekend girls getaway. We loved the ample seating in the kitchen and the large back patio and dock area. Relatively quiet area of the lake. Plenty of beds and bathrooms for a group of women!

Thank you for the nice review! This time of year is absolutely amazing on the lake. The weather is still nice, the water still relatively warm, and there is a lot less traffic on the lake. We are glad that the space worked out well for your group.
This property was a perfect place to host our Thanksgiving Family Reunion!! Wonderful space for my family of 6 adults and 5 grandsons (ages 11 mos.- 7yrs)! Beautiful time with great weather, family blessings and wonderful memories !

Thank you for the nice review! We are very glad that the house was an ideal gathering place for your family and that the weather cooperated.
Great location and outdoor space. Little disappointed in the interior space, not as clean as expected. (Need to spray for bugs.) Need a few more towels for larger groups.

Thanks for the review. We are glad that you enjoyed the location and the outdoor area.
Our exterminators came out and sprayed for bugs in early July, but I just called and they are coming out to spray again in the near future.
Regarding the towels, as with any renter, we would prefer if you contact us with any issues while you are at the house so that we can solve the issue while you are still there. We provide 12 bath towels which is the maximum occupancy of the house. Going forward, we will leave out an additional four towels in a basket in the master closet just in case anyone needs extras.
Had a bass tournament on this lake and this place offered everything we needed.
Great location. Big common areas, plenty of beds for everyone. Lots if space for parking trucks with boats trailers. I highly recommend staying at this property. Will try to stay again if we come this way.

Thanks for the nice review! We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay so much. The driveway is very wide and long so it does provide plenty of options for parking without having to block anyone in.
The house had a great location. The floor plan was good for large families. The one thing I would say is bring your own Amenities. There was no soap in the shower, no Kleenex no extra pillow cases and very few towels.

Thanks for the nice review! We are very happy that the floor plan worked out well for your family. We like that the kiddos have their own area in the basement.
We provide a total of 16 bath towels for each rental which is the maximum occupancy of twelve plus four extra towels. We ask in our listing that renters bring their own lake towels as we do not provide those. All the bedding pillows have freshly cleaned pillow cases on them.
If at any time you need assistance during a stay, please feel to reach out to us directly to see how we can assist. Our direct phone number is posted in the home or you can use the app.
Thank you for spending your vacation at our lake house.

Thank you for the nice review. It's great that the house is so convenient for the conference tournament. We love that you have rented three years in a row!
This house was perfect for our two families (group of 10)! The basement was perfect for all the kids and teens and the bedrooms were all well appointed and comfortable.
The view, the porch and the dock were the highlights! A perfect place to gather at the lake. We had everything we needed and more!

Thanks for the nice review! The basement is such a nice area for all involved as it gives kids/teens an area that feels like their own and the adults can relax a little easier on the main level.
Great location with private dock! Our family of 10 plus an infant had plenty of room and very comfortable. The back porch was our favorite area to hang out. Plenty of room in the kitchen and dining room to cook and eat in all meals. Highly recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Scott Ferguson
Welcome to our Lake Home. We are the Ferguson Family out of Smyrna. We bought this place in Fall 2021 and just finished some bathroom remodels on the home. Previously, we had a rental on Sinclair, which we enjoyed to the fullest, but when we saw this place we knew it was the one for us. It is truly our happy place. The back deck is so relaxing year round. Our two boys love jumping off the dock and swimming. After swimming, you can find them at the bakery getting amazing treats or lunch.
Why they chose this property
The property is very relaxing with a beautiful view. When you aren't enjoying the water everything else is so convenient, whether it is walking to dinners and drinks or a quick drive to Reynolds, Publix, and other needs.
What makes this property unique
We love the location of our property. It is very unique in that we have all the needed amenities in a lake house, with the added bonus of being able to walk to restaurants, a bakery, and bars. So convenient.
