This house was one of the most welcoming, perfectly located and the hosts were beyond accommodating! The house was more amazing than the pictures showed! The hosts were welcoming, accommodating and communicated amazingly!!!! I cannot wait to stay there again!
The host was amazing, checked in on us, had everything we needed and asked multiple times if there was anything else we needed. It was perfect for what we were looking for.
We loved our stay! The host was super responsive, thought of everything, even had a cute Thanksgiving welcome basket for us! We had everything we needed and more. Close enough to walk down to the lake and around the golf course to get fresh air. Beautiful place. Clean. Easy check in and check out. Can’t wait to go back!

Impeccably clean and neat house - seemed brand new inside and out. There is a lake view which is nice to see from the front porch. However, this is NOT “lakeside” and therein lies the first and most noteworthy misleading advertisement. This house is located on the other side of the street - and the neighborhood is so compacted that it’s impossible for a traveler to navigate any access to the lake whatsoever. The second misleading information is that there is an “optional” dock rental… there was no information about the location of the dock, a picture of the dock, or who to contact for the dock. If you want a beautiful home to stay in and relax - look no further! If you want lakeside and access to the lake, move on.

Thank you for your kind words about our house’s cleanliness and comfort. We appreciate your feedback and will update our listing and dock information to make everything clearer for future guests. Hope we have the chance to host you again and provide an even better experience.
We had a great stay at the Lakeside Hideaway. The property has everything you need and is exactly as the pictures show. Ideal location close to Silverwood and across from Twin Lakes. We took advantage of the private dock one day and had fun in the lake and roasting marshmallows at the fire pit. The hosts were a pleasure to work with.

Larissa, thanks again for staying with us! We're glad you enjoyed your time in our vacation home and hope you'll come again! We'd love to have you back!
We enjoyed this place so much! It was perfect for being near our family that lives on another part of Twin Lakes Golf Course! House was lovely, clean, had everything we needed. Only downside was not having a golf cart for use (golf course wouldn’t rent us one unless we were golfing). It’s modern, convenient and beautifully decorated!

Beautiful house/property with view of the lake. Master bathroom is amazing. Whole house looks new with modern furnishings and excellent condition. Wish the dock was included with the price of the house.
What fun we had! The accommodations are great. The setting is lovely. The hosts are the kindest and friendliest we've ever experienced. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend this beautiful home if you are looking for a place to stay in this area!... the beauty inside and outside the house made our vacation amazing! I could not be more thankful for how accommodating the hosts were and how easy it was to communicate with them! The whole experience was wonderful for our family!!
We loved sitting on the front porch. The neighborhood setting was really peaceful. The kitchen and dining room were well set up for family meals.Everything looks brand new and well thought outMake sure you write down the entry code before you arrive. That was our only glitch because I couldn’t get the app to open to get the code and I couldn’t reach Travis when we arrived, but it all worked out well in the end and we loved our stay.
