Great property

The house is even better in person! We went with a group of 11 for a bachelorette and it was plenty of room! We did not get to experience a lot of the outside because of bad weather but would be great for a family in the summer because of water access! We are already planning our next visit!

This comfortable and welcoming property is exactly suited for families who just want to get away

We celebrated my mother’s 74th birthday with family and friends. The lake is very accessible and the property was equipped with kayaks and paddle boats and lots of friendly deer. We would definitely book this property again. The sleeping arrangements have kids the room they needed and adults had downstairs rooms which were well maintained and comfortable.

Fort Worth Lake House Experience

We rented this space for a large family gathering. My 26 year old niece defined it as fantastically quirky - good! Something for everyone. Who has a pool table in the kitchen, says everyone!? But pool was played every night - hah! Also the kayaks - amazing. Great for city folk who want to try kayaking in a safe space, plus great for the outdoorsy people in the group. We used them everyday. There was so much to see and in and around the house. Books, toys, games, history of the area, eclectic collection of knick - knacks. Throwback to our younger years but with internet access! Another ha! Sit on the back porch and chill, watch the deer come out on the island. Frisbee games, cornhole, etc, etc. Feed the fish in the Koi pond. Explore the lake area. Huge TV for Saturday college football. O - H! IYKYK

Great place

It was a perfect place for 12 friends to get together that live all over the US and Canada. So much to do at the property, we never had to leave to go out anywhere else. We're already talking about making the same trip next year!

Perfect!

This property was exactly what we needed for our family gathering. So much room. So many activities and things to do that no one was ever bored. The scenery is amazing and we even saw some deer swim across the lake. I would definitely recommend staying here and we’ll be back again! Thank you, Theresa!

Weekend getaway - perfect location

Friends and I were in Fort Worth for a long weekend. The house was big, spacious, located close enough to main areas, and worked perfectly for our group. The bugs were a bit overwhelming, but didn't necessarily dampen our stay. The lake and recreational equipment available was put to good use and everyone enjoyed their time.

Overall OK

The property was as described and we had a great time! The view of the lake is lovely and we enjoyed watching the deer, ducks and birds. The only drawback was that the oven didn't work and the burners didn't get hot enough, so cooking was a bit of a challenge, but everything else was great! The property manager/owner is very attentive and goes out of his way to make sure you are taken care of. We would rent this property again.
