Beautifully renovated home in a great neighborhood. Cozy beds and all the comforts of home. Everything was thought of in this rental. Will stay here again!
The house was perfect. Grandkids loved the game room and bunk beds. Top notch rental! Cindy responded to my messages immediately and was so helpful! The pictures don't do it justice.
This house is great. Lots of amenities and very clean, and in quiet neighborhood. Host responded quickly and was very helpful. We’ll be staying here again if we’re in the area.
We were very impressed with Cindy’s house. It is in a beautiful setting, gorgeously appointed and has everything you need for a relaxing and comfortable stay. Cindy was quick to respond to questions and very helpful and lovely.
Recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful home, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with my experience. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The house itself is beautifully maintained, clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could need. Cindy went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Their attention to detail and genuine care made me feel right at home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay. Thank you for an amazing experience!
We loved our stay! The house was beautiful and we had everything we needed. The kids loved the garage game room. I took a walk everyday in the beautiful neighborhood. The kitchen had everything we needed. We were completely happy with everything and would definitely go back. The host was awesome and great communication.

About the host
Hosted by Cindy Jones Batten
My husband and I have lived full time in Star Harbor for ten (10) years and we love every moment! We also own and operate Lakehouse Outfitters a retail, renovation and interior design company. Our store is located just 15 minutes away from this property and is open for retail guests three days a week, Thursday - Saturday from 10AM - 5PM. This property is one of our most recent renovation projects and we are pleased to have the opportunity to share it with our guests.
Why they chose this property
Private location, quiet and safe rated neighborhood. Close to amenities yet you'll feel miles away. Recently renovated so all is new, very clean and comfortable for families and friends to enjoy and make memories together.
What makes this property unique
With only two bedrooms the misconception is that it's a small house, yet in reality this one level gem boasts 1940 SF of living space. And. . . sleeps ten with our two spectacular suites! Each suite features a large private bathroom with walk in shower, double vanity and linens galore.
Many neighborhoods push back on short term rentals due to guests blocking streets and driveways with personal automobiles; this property has plenty of off street parking for cars, trucks and even boats and boat trailers.
Special Note to our Margo Hill Wedding Guests: My husband and I are original partners who developed the property and designed the venue and ceremony site at what is now known as Margo Hill. So if you love Margo Hill, we're pretty sure you'll love this little rental property. :)
