Husband booked the place but wife is writing the review.We have stayed at multiple VRBOs in this area and this is by far our favorite experience. We booked this ahead of the huge ice storm in Jan, anticipating power loss and needing a wood burning fireplace (while being close to our home). We are so glad we did!! Even though we didn’t lose power, it was so nice having a fire going with AMPLE firewood at our disposal. Thank you so much for the supply!I wanted to rave how impressed I was with how well everything was stocked and all the thoughtful touches around the house. I’m so used to having to bring extra things from home since so many rentals to not have adequate supplies. There was an abundance of towels, toilet paper, and kitchen/cooking items. This is a great place for kids. The kids room has lots of books and toys (our one year old loved this) and the coffee table downstairs was stocked with games, puzzles, and tons of great drawing supplies. We appreciated the high chair to use so we could leave ours behind. This would be a fantastic stay during the summertime. We stayed cooped up indoors but there’s an amazing yard, fire pit area, and trails for folks to explore (along with the pool and sauna).Plenty of space inside that we didn’t use and our two dogs were also very comfortable along.Thank you again for being amazing, communicative hosts and offering an incredible place!! 10/10 recommend

We enjoyed our stay and the house is cute. There are some nice features like an adorable kids’ room, makeup towels, and a sauna…the sauna was divine! Walking distance to the lake and close to Downtown Gainesville. The hosts were very responsive and they even had a xmas tree and lights up for the holidays. I would definitely describe the style as “rustic” with some modern upgrades.In terms of cleanliness, the house could use a deep cleaning. I did not enjoy the clogged drain in the upstairs shower (the hosts sent drain cleaner for us to use which was helpful but we didn’t really have time to complete maintenance duties) and the downstairs shower had a bunch of hairs all over which were 100% not ours. The walls and baseboards are pretty dirty overall. And we did encounter a few bugs…but maybe that’s normal for a lake house? The freezer and fridge need a thorough cleaning. I say all this not to insult the house/hosts but to let others get a feel for the rental. Lastly, some informational items: there is no disposal so if it’s a long-term stay do expect to constantly clean food out of the kitchen sink; there are only sheer curtains in the downstairs bedroom but it’s pretty shady and private (but not a blackout situation); and we could have used more hangers.

The property is attractive, inviting and well kept. Since it is spacious, not cluttered there is continuous ease of movement, room for one's belongings. We definitely would love to return should the need arise. We also enjoyed the property we visited in this area two months ago but prefer this setting.

My husband and I stayed in this beautiful vrbo for our wedding weekend! It was the perfect place to peacefully relax after all the festivities. We enjoyed the walk down to the lake to enjoy our morning coffee, swam in the pool, had dinner on the patio dining table and made a cozy fire in the evening! The house was secluded and it was a nice romantic getaway! If we are ever back in the area for another long weekend, we will absolutely stay here again.

Great house!

We had a wonderful stay. Kids loved the pool and the bunk beds! Plenty of supplies for our group of 7 ladies. If we venture back to Georgia, we would definitely stay here again. Houses nearby, but you wouldn't know it. Quiet and peaceful. Loved the walk to the water.
Trees out back along trail to water.

Also, Alex and Julie are quick to answer any of your questions! They also thought of EVERYTHING.. If you forgot something don’t worry I’m sure it will be there! Make sure to take a stroll down to the lake, you won't regret!

Great Weekend

We were in the area for a wedding and the place was wonderful to entertain until then. Lake was great for the dogs and the pool was great for the humans. Very well stocked kitchen for a rental too! Owners couldn’t have been nicer to deal with.

Great weekend and hosts

We had some friends travel five hundred miles from the coast for the weekend. It was well worth the drive. The house is well kept and beds are very comfortable. It is close to downtown Gainesville which has some amazing restaurants. It rained, but had a lot of good college football. The hosts offered to alter our stay because of the weather. They are very kind. The lake is a good distance from the lake is my only thing I had a problem with. I would recommend this experience.
