Host was amazing and really took care of us with renting a pontoon boat for us when his went down right before we arrived. Thank you so very much Steve. Beautiful home. Downstairs does have steep stairs and the walkway down to the dock is steep so hold on to your little ones.

From start to finish Steve made this one of our best trips ever. The house was perfect and there were so many tiny details thought of that truly make this one of the best houses we have ever rented the lake. Check in, communication before arrival and checking on us throughout really set Steve apart as a host. Great location on the lake for swimming, hanging at the dock or watching the kids surf and tube. Cannot say enough about Steve and the property, it really was one of the best overall experiences we have ever had! Thank you for the great vacation Steve and we will definitely see you again!

Such a fantastic place! This home was absolutely perfect for our getaway!! It was well -maintained and fully stocked. We spent so much time on the new screened in porch, eating all our meals with beautiful views of the water. The dock has every imaginable toy you could ask for and we used them all! And having use of the pontoon boat was icing on the cake. Steve was incredibly communicative and made sure our vacation went smoothly. We will definitely be back!!!

Incredible Family Vacation

This had to be the most relaxing family vacation we have ever taken! The house was wonderful and fit all of our needs.

WOW! What an amazing stay! This was truly one of the best VRBO experiences we’ve ever had. The home was absolutely beautiful, incredibly clean, comfortable, and had everything we could possibly need for a relaxing and memorable stay. It felt like home away from home.The location was amazing, and the home was packed with amenities that made it especially fun for our children. They absolutely loved the kayaks, paddleboards, ping pong, chess, foosball, and all the other activities available. The pontoon boat was also a HUGE hit with everyone—both the kids and adults enjoyed it so much! The kids were thrilled with the tubing! There was truly something for everyone, and we honestly never heard the words, “I’m bored!”We also really enjoyed the coffee bar! It was a wonderful touch, with plenty of coffee and tea available to enjoy throughout our stay.The home itself was beautiful, peaceful, and so well maintained. You can tell the owner/host put a lot of thought into making his guests feel comfortable and giving them an incredible experience. Communication was easy, friendly, and responsive from beginning to end. We felt welcomed and taken care of throughout our entire stay.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. We made some wonderful family memories here and will absolutely be back.

Family vacation

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Inn At Raintree. We spent a majority of our time at the dock and in the lake. The area is a great place for tubing with the kids. Dock is a great place to gather as is the screened-in porch. The living area is comfy and held our group for game nights. Steve was a wonderful, responsive host. Our family hopes to return next year.

Great week

Our family enjoyed our stay at Inn at Raintree, despite Hurricane Debby’s best attempts to rain us out. We spent a great deal of time at the dock enjoying the lake. Steve provides a nice assortment of water toys, kayaks, canoes and a paddleboard. The family enjoyed game nights on the screened porch. Steve is a wonderful, responsive host.

The Inn at Rain Tree Rocks

This was my first VRBO rental. I was so happy with the process. Our host was very kind and was in contact throughout the process. The house was more than what we imagined it would be. On the lake with the extended family with plenty of room to spare. Bottom line: This property was exactly as advertised. Highly recommend!! Lastly, I asked if my family wanted to come back, they answered "ABSOLUTELY". Enough said..

Everything about the house was wonderful. Steve, the host, provides everything you need for a perfect stay -- there were plenty of beach towels, kitchen towels, coffee pods, tea choices, and even sunscreen. The use of the boat made for a perfect week. The boat house was full of life jackets and water sport activities. And there were 4 kayaks, 2 SUP, and a canoe that got a lot of use. A neighbor helps care for things at the house and when Steve found out the sitting tube was broken, he had the neighbor deliver another one the next day fully inflated. We had the best week at the Inn at Raintree!

Steve is a wonderful host. He responds to any questions and concerns quickly. His home is a great place for families to gather. Our family has stayed at Inn at Raintree for several years. Each time, we notice new upgrades. The sunroom is a welcome addition! Many family meals and games were shared there. The dock and the boat are our favorite spots to gather. The kids enjoyed tubing and swimming. The downstairs gathering area was a great spot for kids movie days when it was a bit too rainy to be outdoors. The outdoor pingpong table was used for a family tournament. Thanks, Steve, for allowing us the use of your home.

A rental house that felt like home from beginning to end

From initial emails to final goodbyes, Steven was a fantastic host, and his beautiful lakefront home did not disappoint. He let us know up front what to expect, the resources and services around town available to us, and how to access every ounce of fun available to my family. We enjoyed days in the lake, reading on the dock, playing on the wide variety of floats and water toys, or just afternoons hanging inside. There were 11 of us (5 boys from 1.5 - 12 y.o. and 6 adults from 37-74!), and no one felt overcrowded. From the porches to firepit to the screened in dining space to the game room to the docks, there was always something to do or space to relax and do nothing. We made fantastic memories. I highly recommend staying at the Inn at Raintree!

Exactly as described! The house is in the perfect location on the lake. We had 6 adults and 5 children, and we could not have asked for a better house. Nearby is the town of Littleton, a grocery store, a boat ramp, and a marina. The house is completely stocked with everything you need. We also loved the boathouse, which is fully stocked with floats, life jackets, paddle boards, and kayaks. Access to the pontoon boat was an incredible offer. Steve is a great host, and you can tell he wants his guest to have a great time. Definitely planning to return!
