Incredible location
Views are unbelievable and location is close to everything. We enjoyed morning walks on scenic drive, taking a short hikes up Lockes Hill and rented a boat from Fay’s boatyard. Loved every minute of this vacation!

Lake house stay
Beautiful location and lake house. the house was large enough to accommodate 3 teenagers, 4 adults and a baby. plenty of beds and room with the game room and front room with the best views of the lake. great kitchen which was well stocked with kitchen staples and dishes/ good working pots/pans and oven. 2.5 bathrooms and laundry room. we loved that we could walk to the beach from the dock, inside the lake was shallow enough and sandy to walk there. we loved that every day we saw a ton of people walking the street, not many cars, safe to walk. beautiful location and views, we were all very impressed!!! perfect location to travel to all the different towns by boat. had a wonderful week, sad it was over too soon!

Beautiful Home
We had a fantastic time at this property. The view over the lake was amazing. The fire pit area worked well for a fire and relaxing at night. Tim was easy to communicate with and the instructions for the house were easy. We really enjoyed our time here!

A great stay on the lake
Overall we were quite happy with this rental. Our party included 2 families, with 8 total people. The first comment that I will make is that the house was actually a bit nicer than it initially appears from the photos. The bathrooms are in very good shape, the kitchen appliances are new, and it was clear that the owner has put a bit of money into the house over the last few years. If you are concerned about the road being between the house and the lake, don't be. There is little to no traffic on the street. We were totally comfortable crossing the road to the stairs down to the water. As for the dock, it suited it's purpose. Not great itself for hanging out on, but does it's job as a place to dock a boat. The lake bottom near the dock is generally sandy and a good place to swim. The nearby beach is also a great spot for swimming with kids. That stretch of the lake can get a bit windy, but we only had one night of higher (15 mph) winds. On a hot day, some of the upstairs bedrooms can get a bit hot and stuffy. There are some window AC units, but not in all rooms. Bring a fan or two if you plan to use all of the bedrooms. Check in and check out worked fine. One thing that surprised me was the owner forwarding an additional contract he wanted me to sign. It wasn't really a big deal as most of the aspects of that contract were in line with the listing and the VRBO policies, but it was unexpected. Overall, a good house, in a good location for the price.

Wonderful Location and Views
Excellent location and spectacular views. Swim, paddle board and kayak off of the property’s private (shared) dock. Camp fires in the fire pit at night. Get up and do it again the next day !!

Big house, great location!
House fit large group of twenty somethings (friends of kids) as well as our immediate family. House felt comfortable, didn't need AC but was glad it was there towards the very end. Didnt even use bonus room - we fit in all of the many comfy beds!

Can be old but does not need to be filthy
The property was filthy. From the dead bugs in the window sills to the blood on the door frame, blood spots in the mattress pad, to the ants all of the kitchen, spider bites while sleeping, the shower had spiders in the cracked dropped ceiling with bug marks on the shower, and fix the refrigerator or buy a new one. Condensation all over the kitchen floor!!!! That created a slipping hazard!!! Whatever that sitting area down by the water is is another hazard!!!! What was totally disgusting was how filthy the kitchen cabinets were. Again it can be old but clean the place up!!!! Mattress were pitfall and the sheets are so thin. Tip for you. If you want to rent can commend decent money fix the place up. Provide decent mattresses and pillows and buy white sheets so they can be bleached!!!! This experience has taught me that VRBO has no cleanliness standards or inspections and will rent anything. Oh and the hot water in the bathroom toilet in the second floor???? Seriously, this home was beyond filthy. The construction going on next door was a noise nuisance too. That should have been disclosed.

Look at another property
House was gross upon arrival. Kitchen counters greasy, old food on counters. Smelled like a grease pit in the house. Bed sheets rolled up in balls on beds. Trash overflowing, I had to go out and pick up trash because flies were everywhere. Refrigerator leaked all week, we had to put towels around base. All of the above was reported to owner with no response. Dock is unsafe, I had to take a rock to pound in nails that were sticking out everywhere. Landing beside the lake in front of the house had old chairs thrown on the hill. It didn’t look like anyone had picked up the area all summer. Satellite tv only works in one room with limited channels. Owner said we could use elicoya state beach beside property, this was not true and we ended up paying to use beach. I had asked the owner on 3 occasions about this.......House is very run down with spiders everywhere, traffic is fairly consistent on weekends and lighter on weekdays. The one benefit of this house is the amazing view. We have rented over 30 houses over the years and this one was the most disappointing of all of them. With some effort this place could be a very nice place to stay but it’s not even close at the moment. There is more things I could list but I won’t take the time.
