We had a wonderful stay in Lakeside! The home was comfortable, welcoming, and a great place for our family to relax and enjoy time together. The location was perfect for enjoying everything Lakeside has to offer.Our host was especially kind, responsive, and accommodating. We really appreciated how thoughtfully she handled a small issue that came up during our stay—it was clear that she genuinely cared about making sure we had a good experience.We loved our time here and would happily stay again. Thank you for helping make our Lakeside visit such an enjoyable one!

Lovely home that 10 of us were very comfortable in. We loved the feel of the home! The screened in porch provided us with the space to gather, play board games, put puzzles together and enjoy many laughs. We loved the golf carts and my grandchildren loved having bikes to ride around lakeside. The home is in a great location, the corner lot provides plenty of yard space. Racheal responded very quickly with any questions that I had, easy check in and check out process. If you're looking for a fancy big home, this is not for you.. but if you're looking forward to spending time with your family making memories in a "real" home this is it!! Lakeside is wonderful!

Lakeside Vacation 2023

We love Lakeside for a family vacation. Rachel was a great host and quick to respond to any questions. We enjoyed having a golf cart and bikes available for use, the sun porch is awesome and a cook out on the back patio set was nice as well! We loved that we could bring our dog as well. The home was well equipped with everything we enjoyed our stay and will come back again!

Comfy stay

We had a great time on our stay. The house is stocked with everything you could possibly want or need on a vacation. We enjoyed using the golf cart to tool around but didn’t have time to try the bikes. We especially enjoyed having the tie out for our dig since he’s used to having a fenced in yard. Rachel was also easy to communicate with and was very responsive.

Charming

The owner has supplied visitor needs and was very responsive ( timely and helpful) with any questions we had. The golf cart was a great addition. It’s an older property but is well maintained . The steps are steep but the bedrooms are large and work well for a family or group.
