As described and pictured, this house on West Leaf Lake is spacious, clean and well-appointed in a quiet neighborhood. We were especially impressed with the large property that provided wonderful privacy. All the deck and patio spaces were a big bonus. Thank you for a great stay!

Great location on a smaller lake. The house and property were lovely. We were there mid week and the lake and neighborhood were nice and quiet.

Beautiful home and property

My family and I had an absolute blast! The back yard patio is perfect for grilling and hanging out. The dock is very convenient to park the boat, and the kids were able to catch fish right from it. We hope to return next summer!

Very nice place. My only complaint is that the floors echo at night. So everyone in the house can hear if you have to go to the bathroom or get a late night snack.

House on the lake

When we arrived on friday night, the air conditioner did not work. Since last year when we stayed it looks a little worn on the inside. The carpet down stair has a big stain, some of the wall paper in the bathroom is coming off. Then we had a bad storm and lost all electricity and water with no back up system. The neighbor did offer to come down and look at the air but it was saturday afternoon and we knew it wasn't going to get fixed. We loved it last year that why we went back.
