Property was beautiful and well kept. Only issue was alligator in lake. All had hoped they could swim, but did not due to our friend the alligator who toured the lake many times during day. Home was perfect for all 18 of us, and could have accommodated 4-6 more

Heidi, the Manager was amazing! She was very responsive, accommodating and efficient! The Apollo Villa was absolutely perfect for my 22 family members that flew or drove in from five different states to gather for our son's wedding. We loved the fire pit that is in a screened in area and they had more chairs that we needed to have all of us sit around and make smore's. It was just perfect, I cannot say enough good things about the location, the outdoor activities and the cleanliness of the "home"!

Great Place for a Family Get Away

My family and I absolutely loved staying here. There was plenty of things to do. The lake was awesome and the villa was amazing. We had ages 6 months to 80 and everyone had a good time. The property manager was super nice and helped us all during our stay. It is definitely somewhere I would go again and planned to in the future.

Wonderful family accommodations

This was our 2nd family reunion visit and was just as good as our first. There is something to do for every age and space to spread out whether inside or out. Plenty of sleeping accommodations for all. The hostess is wonderful. This is a great place to escape life and spend time with family.

We spent our family Christmas week at this beautiful property and truly enjoyed our stay. The home is very nice and conveniently located near grocery stores while still offering a peaceful country-living atmosphere. Hide is an excellent Host and communicate very well! While some upgrades are needed—particularly the beds and toilets—and we did experience a ladybug infestation, none of that took away from the time we spent together. Overall, our family had a wonderful experience and made great memories here.L.Wimbley

Awesome family reunion

This property was absolutely perfect for our large family reunion. We had eight separate families with lots of young kids, so the extra space in this huge house was needed. The double kitchen certainly came in handy at meal time, and the two large dining tables were ideal. The large grounds, lake, fire pit, and endless games inside provided plenty to do for our large crowd. We will definitely be back!

Great time at Apollo’s Villa!

If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle, Apollos Villa is for you! 26 of our family members stayed for a week and had a great time. The owner was responsive to any needs we had. The house is laid out very nicely for people to have their own space and the kitchen is fantastic for a big group. Groups enjoyed the covered porch, as well as the fire pit and playing in the water off the dock. There are plenty of things to do in the house which is filled with games, books, and movies and there are outdoor activities as well. Thanks for an awesome family vacay Apollos Villa!

Beautiful property

Our family really loved the property, despite the few maintenance & pest problems that arose while we were there (one of the rooms smelled of mold as noted by two of my family members). We appreciated the prompt response to our concerns & the initative taken to compensate us for the inconveniences we encountered, during our stay. We had an amazing time there. There was so much to do and explore (fishing, kayaking, canoeing, games, a playground for the kids, outdoor fire pit area, hiking trail, etc.). We are looking forward to visiting this amazing property in the future. We loved Apollo's Villa!🤗

family reunion

the property is perfect to disconnect from the daily grind. every one had there own room. plenty of family space and the kitchen was perfect for our size group. a large collection can would be helpful to collect all of the cans and bottles separately from the regular trash as they take up a lot of space. the kitchen is well stocked with every thing you could need for meal preparation. we totally enjoyed our week there. it seemed short, wish we could have stayed longer.

Just right for a gathering of family and friends!

Apollo's Villa was so well laid out for our group of 17. There was a great kitchen for preparing meals and gathering together! Also, we found plenty of space to spread out and relax in the game room, bar, movie room and other living areas. We all enjoyed sitting out on the porch and the outdoor fishing as well as use of the kayaks. The house was unique with so many interesting things to discover and there were several places to explore within a 45-minute drive in case you wanted to take a day trip. Did I mention this place was spotless? I highly recommend.
