Had a nice quiet getaway with my 2 adult daughters and 1 yr old granddaughter. The place was nice and clean and we had no issues at all. It was only a 30 min drive to Canton to attend the trade days and was worth the drive. Will definitely be back again.

House was basic, but it had everything we needed. It was very clean. Owner texted me the day before with information regarding our stay. He communicated very well. The dock was perfect for lounging on the lake. It has lights for night fishing. The lake was beautiful. We caught giant bass. Highly recommend!! We will be staying again.

House on Lake Fork

The check in and out process was very easy. Directions were simple, but thorough. House was clean and equipt with everything needed. Beds were comfortable. Shady back yard made it nice during the Texas heat.

Great Family Getaway

The house was clean and well stocked with lots of thoughtful touches. Great location right on Lake Fork, short drive from Alba or Emory. Host very was responsive once he made first contact with us a few days before our stay. (NOTE: questions through VRBO’s “Contact Host” function went unanswered.)All appliances were in working order. Kitchen was adequately stocked with basics for cooking, including the best cookware set I’ve seen in a rental. The bedding and towels were nice, and there were plenty for the number of guests. Large area to sit outdoors under the canopy of trees when the sun is on the deck. Wide path down to the boat dock. Two things missing from the VRBO listing were that the property does have a basic charcoal grill and that the coffee maker is a drip coffee maker. There is no cable, dish or internet but cell service was adequate. Host has an antenna hooked up for TV which was fine for our needs.

fishing and vacation trip

Had a very enjoyable stay, weather put hamper on fishing some but pulled a 7.5 and few other big ones out. Lake Fork has big bass. House was nice just a few bumps, one only 3 chairs at kitchen table, 4 in our party and had to bring one of the plastic chairs in, we played games since weather was hammering fishing some. Also had to stagger showers because hot water ran short after two quick showers and wasn't that hot. No wifi but got good phone reception. beautiful view and nice pier. Couldn't get water pump at pier sink to work so couldn't clean fish there. but did hang a good bass off walkway and few cats on pier, but no crappie. Only drip coffee pot. Hill going to pier so be prepared for that. These few items were not deal breaker and we had a great time. I would stay there again.
