Lake Henry LakeHouse

Property is Great for family fun! We stayed for a long weekend. The home is well appointed and yard is very large for playing games or taking the 4-legged friends for quick walks. We enjoyed the paddle boat, jumpimg off the dock and swimming! Great place to enjoy.

Great Location and Beautiful Home

This house has everything you’ll need and the location is perfect! Sunsets and sunrise on the lake were beautiful. The screened in porch and all the outdoor spaces were exactly what I was looking for. There was a kayak and peddle boat too. The beds were super comfortable, kitchen was fully loaded, washer and dryer, large living room and lots of kitchen seating. Definitely recommend!

Home was very clean, beautifully decorated inside. Plenty of room. One thing that I was so impressed with is this house was stocked with everything you could possibly want from cooking supplies to fishing gear! 2 different grills, the property was our favorite! Very private. We loved being able to splash our skiff right on the property and go across the lake to Jaxsons! Only thing we will check next time is the water depth. We were not able to make it to Lake June due to the low water levels. We have been coming to this area for 10 yrs and have never seen it this low. But overall, beautiful home and property!
