We were passing through in our travel van and saw that the weather was getting bad so quickly found this place. Being rained in wasn’t bad staying here. Very comfortable stay weathering out the rain. The day we left the sun came out and was so beautiful outside. Would stay again.

This was the best VRBO I have stayed in. My friend and I like to play board games with natural light and pretty views and this property delivered. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, the best I’ve ever rented. We hope to visit again this summer to utilize the dock and kayaks.

We had a wonderful weekend stay (me, husband, 3 kids aged 4-12, and dog). This is the CLEANEST rental we've ever stayed in. We wanted something simpler for fall break and this was perfect. No need to leave the house. I could honestly stay for a month! The lake view is gorgeous. The dock is sturdy and large. We spent a lot of time on the kayaks and paddleboards just enjoying life at a simpler pace. The hosts are so hospitable and kind!

Always perfect

This is our 3rd year in a row and we’re never disappointed. The place is so cozy and well kept and lacks for nothing to enjoy your stay. We feel at home everyone we’re here. We were here for a volleyball tournament but our daughter is a senior so we will not be back for that anymore but have grown so fond of this place that we will probably be back to just relax and enjoy.

Quiet restful and just perfect

We first stayed here last summer and were delighted to return for a quiet week of kayaking, swimming, and enjoying all the wildlife. This is the perfect place to unplug for a few days and enjoy time with family. Rick and Debbie are excellent hosts anticipating every need. House is a delight well equipped, cozy and comfortable.

Great Stay

The property was just as advertised. Communication with the owners/managers was excellent - they responded to any questions immediately. Place was clean, and even filled with extra touches to make the stay great. We had fun on the water, found a neat hike close by, the outdoor space was great, and had an overall fantastic experience.

Awesome week at the bungalow

This is our second stay at the bungalow in the last year. The home is extremely clean and well stocked with amenities. The hosts, Rick and Debbie, are top notch! Our favorite parts of our stay were fishing, kayaking, dinner on the back deck at sunset, and we were able to go to the Moo festival in Athens. Highly recommend, can’t wait for another visit.

Was probably the cleanest place we've ever stayed at, which was a huge plus. Our pet was openly welcomed which was great! House and beds were comfortable. The only negative thing I could say,is, if you want to fiish in November, check lake levels 1st.

Like home away from home

We stayed here last year during our daughters volleyball tournament and the place was absolutely beautiful, clean and felt like being at home. The owners were super friendly and accommodating. We loved it so much that it was not even up for discussion where we were staying this year. Once again every thing was perfect. If you want a beautiful lake front place, in a quiet neighborhood with everything you could want at your finger tips then this is your place.
