The little house is cute but far from most things. Thought the hot tub was in the backyard from the pictures but it's not, it's a shared space. Thought it was easy access to the lake but it was not and there isn't a fire pit. For 600 for the weekend it sure doesn't fit the description.
Family gathering for a long weekend and needed extra space in addition to the main cabin. This was perfect. Plenty of towels, kitchen dishes and bonus of beach towels and camping chairs. Very clean and beds were comfy. Hosts were great and will definitely come back.!
Perfect home base for a fishing trip with my boys. The property is clean and cozy with everything you need. Beds were comfortable and the location right on Lake Buchanon can't be beat. And Buffy and John were fantastic hosts. Very friendly and accommodating, responsive and helpful beyond expectations! Thanks for a wonderful getaway.
It seems that we were the first ones to stay at the Roadhouse. It was well stocked with pots & pans, utensils, towels, and cleaning supplies. Very clean. The bathroom did not have a curtain or blinds, so our daughter made a window covering out of a towel.
We did know that there were other guests on the property, but we didn’t realize that they were on the other side of the wall. We could hear talking early in the morning, but nothing bothersome, but just be aware.
Overall, it’s a great place to stay for the lake. Just research how low the lake will be if you plan on having a leisurely walk along the bank.
Oh!!! Don’t lock yourself out like I did! I had to charge my phone and all information was on it—thank goodness for iWatches!!! Buffy was great about getting the info to us so we could get back in.
