Spring Break Trip

This lakehouse is absolutely the best. The house is very spacious and the lay out is great! Easy in and out for my boat and the kitchen is terrific. Fished for a week with my grandkids and being on the water made is very easy to zip back to house and tie up to the dock for a quick lunch and then back at it. I will no doubt stay here every time I visit Lake Bob Sandlin.

Fishing trip

Beautiful spacious home with fully equipped kitchen with gas and charcoal grill. Provided everything we needed. The beds and pillows are so comfortable. Have a nice pier to fish off of and tie your boat there. My husband prefers a boat slip, which we rented down the street called Big Al barefoot marina for a very reasonable price. You would launch your boat there anyway. Caught a lot of fish even in the very windy conditions. Had a great time and will be back. Michelle W.Katy, Tx

Fabulous stay

This is our second time staying here and we thoroughly enjoyed this lake house. If you’re looking for a lake house that has great views and a great dock. This house is for you. My husband is a big fisherman and this place is fabulous. I love the views. I can sit outside and read my book and Enjoy the view all day. The house has everything you need. The host are wonderful to work with. They responded very fast if I needed anything. We stayed there for six weeks this time and really enjoyed. We got to relax and enjoy fishing. I highly recommend.

We rented the property for our son’s 13th birthday for him to fish with friends and family. The house was beautiful, clean, and spacious! The views were beautiful and so was the dock. We would 100% book again!

Great Place!

Property was amazing. I stayed the week with my grandson for spring break. There was plenty of room to park my boat while we were not on the water and during the day we could just come back and tie up to the dock for lunch. The kitchen was huge and well stocked. I would definitely stay here again.

great fall weekend

We had a great time at the property, very nice house and great yard with awesome views. WiFi was not working well, but that just forced the teenagers to do different activities outside so that was actually a positive!

Absolutely perfect!

This lovely home is absolutely perfect in every way. It's beautifully updated, very spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is amply stocked with dishes, utensils and all the pots and pans anyone would need. Our family enjoyed playing corn hole on the back deck and of course the gorgeous lake. The host was most cordial and responsive. We hope to return soon!

Unbelievable Property!!!

This Lake House is perfect in so many ways. CLEAN and COMFORTABLE is definitely an important part of the foundation to create a must stay property, this property sets a standard. A home away from home feeling while creating a new experience. It's hard to capture what to expect in pictures, it was definitely beyond any expectations we had. From inside to outside, we enjoyed all this property has to offer. We look forward to making this a part of our family Texas visits going forward.

Peace not far from home!

We came here for Thanksgiving to spend time with friends and family. The house was very clean and stocked well with towels, spices and such. I am really weird about using kitchen sponges and stuff but this house had brand new kitchen sponges and a lot of cleaning supplies; I know that is an odd thing to mention but it is one of my pet peeves. I loved the back patio and boat dock. The house was in the cove area and I think that helped to shield us from the wind because it was in the 50's everyday and we were comfortable outside in a jacket. I think the highlight of our trip was when we were all on the deck and a Bald Eagle flew above us; it was in slow motion and we all were in awe. They do allow pets and we brought a gate and put it outside by the garage side door. It made for a perfect little dog run so we did not have to walk them 20 times per day. I have also never stayed at a place that offered so many amenities; lake toys, games and more. The owners allow you to use all of their lake toys and they have TONS! I would consider coming back in the summer for this reason alone. The neighborhood is quiet and neighbors are friendly. It did take us a few days to figure out where this weird bird noise was coming from; at first, we joked it was Skinwalkers but on our last day we took the puppies for a walk and one of the neighbors had a talking parrot; we all got a good laugh about it.

Relaxing and peaceful family getaway

We couldn’t have needed this getaway more and my family enjoyed every single second of it. This home is in a lovely neighborhood tucked back in an extremely beautiful and peaceful cove. It was absolutely perfect for fishing, paddle boarding and swimming. We thoroughly enjoyed our beautiful quiet mornings on the dock with a cup of coffee and our fun relaxing evenings hanging out on the back porch eating s’mores and hotdogs. This home was extremely clean, well equipped with everything we needed, very spacious and comfortable and the beds were absolutely fabulous! The boat dock is easy to get to and use. The owners boat is on the only lift, but we had no problem accommodating two large bass boats tied to either side of the dock and had plenty of room left for another one or two. The house is conveniently located 2-3 minutes from Barefoot Bay Marina that has a boat ramp and convenience store/gas station, etc. In my opinion this place would be ideal for all ages and all types of family getaways. We had two adults, two well seasoned adults, two teenagers and two dogs in our group and we had plenty of room and plenty of things to do. The owners were extremely nice and quick to answer any questions we had. They went above and beyond to accommodate us and helped us with a problem even after we left. If I could give this place more than five stars I would! We will definitely stay here again! Thanks again from the Halls
