Best VRBO experience

We have stayed in many VRBO places, and this has by far been the best experience. Everything that we could have possibly needed is here. The host has been attentive and accommodating. The house is clean and inviting and feels ‘like home’. They even have a plan for rainy days- to make cookies! And they include a recipe, along with ALL the ingredients!! That was a hit with the kids! We will be coming back!

Wonderful Lake Getaway

A great place by the lake! Easy to get to, and a great spot on the lake as well. Views were relaxing, and we all had a great time at this place. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the overall stay was just perfect. Our kids spent every single day in the water.

Guys trip

Took a trip with some lifelong friends. The owner was very responsive and pleasant. Property is just as listed. Honestly, we overpacked for the stay bc the cabin is well prepared to host a small family or friends group. All of the cooking utensils needed were provided. Access to the lake is better than average (less stairs than most 😀). We had one issue during the stay which the owner remedied swiftly and without having to be prompted which is great customer service! Everything worked and was as listed! Great location close to trident marina and the Grill!

Weekend Getaway

Cozy cabin on the Lake! Perfect location to getaway and disconnect from it all. Our host was super and reached out to us to ensure we were settled in and to answer any questions. Especially loved the soft cozy throws on the comfy couch on those chilly mornings.

Great house for a small group.

The property location is perfect. We also loved the boat slip and lift. It was very convenient to everything on the lake and little grocery store. We only wish it was a little larger. The adults and kids needed separate hang out spaces at night. Maybe screen in the back porch or roof and screen in the pergola area. It was very clean and kitchen was stocked.

Better than the Pictures

This cabin was perfect for a long weekend stay with our family of five. My husband and I took the master, our two preteen girls took the bunk room, and our college age daughter had the third bedroom. We had plenty of space. The cabin was even nicer than the pictures reflect. The owners thought of everything. It was neat and tidy. The kitchen was fully stocked. Lots of lake toys for renters use. And we really enjoyed the location on the water. We’d love to return.

Peaceful Oasis

We loved the property! It was tucked away in a cove with less boat traffic than the main water. The dock was ideal for swimming and spending time during the day! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Highly Recommend

We cannot say enough good things about our stay at this property. Both the inside and the outside were even better than the pictures. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to pretty much cook all of our meals there. The lake toys were such a nice addition. Our kids ranged in age from 7 to 14 and they were all completely entertained. The dock is in a great location for just swimming and enjoying the day. The owner was extremely communicative and responded to questions instantly. We would love to stay at this property again!

Very clean, peaceful retreat!

This rental was amazing! Nice and spacious and so incredibly clean! The rooms were decent size also. The deck facing the lake is incredible! You have access to it from the master which was a nice benefit. The owner was very kind and also incredibly easy to get in touch with if needed. The house is stocked with everything you need to start your stay. The pantry even has an inviting baking section for rainy days. The dock is easily accessible, which is a bonus for Smith lake. The house is located in a private area even with neighbors, which makes it the perfect retreat. Will stay again!
