Jason thank for the nice review and for taking good care of our property. Also, and I'm sure it was an oversite when you booked, but you booked your stay for 4 guest and there were 7 guest staying, which causes a problem with our cleaning contract, as they charge $10.00 per night per person for all guest over 4. This is due to the extra cleaning and laundry for the additional linens and extra guest. If we had know we always leave out extra towels and snacks for the extra guest. Thanks again for booking with us, and you are welcome back anytime. Best Regards, Bob

Great Get Away!

This was our 4th trip to Lake Talquin and our 3rd stay at Talquin Tranquility. We will never stay anywhere else, all the comforts and amenities of home, easy access for boat entrance and great fishing! This trip the weather played with us a few days but just to relax was wonderful. If you haven't stayed at Talquin Tranquility it's a must visit.

Thanks for the glowing review Patricia, and I'm sorry the weather wasn't very cooperative during part of your stay. I am glad your enjoyed your visit in spite of the rain and I really appreciate you letting me know about the few things that are in the need of some tender loving care. I passed those items on to our maintenance crew, and they have been taken care of. Also I want to thank you for taking such great care of our cottage, and you are welcome back anytime you can work in a visit. Thanks again, and we are looking forward to your next visit.

Relaxing Weekend

Nice, clean and quiet rental for the weekend. Loved hanging out on the “screened in”porch. It was fun to watch and hear the wildlife (birds and bullfrogs)! The owner communicated promptly when I asked any questions. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Would love to stay here again.

Peaceful & Relaxing

I can’t remember what # visit it is for us, but as always it doesn’t disappoint! Clean, comfortable and very well stocked! Anything you could think of is there to make your stay the best. Fishing was ok but the relaxation and down time is what we needed. Staying at Talquin Tranquility feels like home… see you again next year!

Great Property

Property was very clean. The yard was immaculate, and he view from the back porch was beautiful. The extras that were provided such as K-cups, creamer, water, and snacks were a nice touch. Bob was easy to work with, answered questions quickly, and kept in touch every step of the way. I would stay again.

Wonderful weekend at the lake

Our multigenerational family stayed for a weekend and fully plan to return in the future. The screened porch has relaxing views and plenty of seating/tables to spend the whole day visiting, playing games, and watching those who were fishing off the dock. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking, storage and serving. The house was clean, plenty of everything needed, the living area was cozy. Highly recommend for a relaxing, comfortable stay!
