Matthew and his crew were absolutely wonderful guests! They thoroughly enjoyed themselves then left the place just as they’d found it- clean as a whistle. I’d have them back in a heartbeat. Ideal guests

Clean and neat but dated. AC went out but was addressed and repaired immediately. Excellent follow up from owner. Primary bedroom mattress and ceiling fan need replaced. Game room was spacious and well stocked with games. Pool was nice. Nice setup for large groups who want separate cottages.

Birthday Getaway

This was a fantastic place for a group gathering as it provided a pool, recreational room with an espresso machine, refrigerator, darts and pool table, grill area and plenty of yard space to enjoy around the firepit. The owner, Erica, was there to greet us and was accommodating and very friendly. The big house provided the 7 of us with plenty of room and bathrooms. This location was convenient to the lake and the golf courses. We will definitely rent again the next time we go back to Lake Fork
