Omg!!! I first want to say Cyndi was an AMAZING HOST!!! My family and I drive all the way from Phoenix, AZ and enjoyed ourselves soooo much. The home was immaculately decorated and clean. We were accommodated by the host in best way possible. My family and I were very impressed with the morning views of the lake and the late night deers that are in the area. We are city folk!! So, anytime we get a chance to see Mother Nature at its best we enjoy every bit of it. We will definitely visit again. Thank you soooo much Cyndi for having us
Super helpful host! And a very unique property. We were there for a fishing tournament and the neighborhood boat ramp was very convenient. Property had plenty of space for vehicles and boat trailer.
We had a lovely long weekend at this home! Enjoyed the coziness inside and the setting on the lake was perfect for our kayaks! Highly recommend! Excellent communication with host!
We loved our stay in this beautiful and peaceful lake home! Communication with the owners was awesome and checking in was a breeze. Very clean house and it has the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in! It is the perfect place to relax, recharge, and enjoy!

Lake house
The house was absolutely great. The only suggestion I have is that the listing be revised explaining that there is technically only one full bathroom for the whole house and that it’s actually a 3 bedroom home and not 4 but a sunroom with a couch and futon. Other than that, it was a lovely property.
This place was great! Super clean, well appointed & beds were really comfortable. The interior has such a cool vibe… we loved the foosball table! Host was awesome to work with! Thank you Gary & Cindi for going that extra mile to take care of us!
We very much enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. Gracious host and lovely facility. It is misleading if you think the listing reads as 2 bathrooms. In fact the toilet and shower (1 of each) are located in separate rooms. While it didn’t compromise our stay at all, it is something to note. Thank you for sharing your slice of lake living.

quiet, calming location
The property is beautiful, quite and serene. The four star rating was because the discription was somewhat misleading. If I had read the reviews I would have seen that there were 2-1/2 baths. One with stool and sink and the second with a bathtub/shower and sink which had to be entered through the main bedroom. Also the fourth bedroom is actually the sun room with a futon.
The other thing we found somewhat concerning was only 1 1/2 rolls of toilet paper, a 1/2 roll of paper towels and 2 dishwasher tablets for 4 people for three nights.
However, the house itself was very pleasant to stay in; warm and inviting.

Read the Fine Print
I was truly excited about our stay at this VRBO. Once we arrived, the house was not clean, many cobwebs, spiders and ants inside the house and on counter tops.
1. The house is listed as 4 bedroom it is not. 1st bedroom has a king size bed. 2nd bedroom has a queen or full size bed. 3rd bedroom has bunkbeds (in a laundry room) and the listed 4th bedroom is a pull out in porch area.
2. So many BUGS!!!! I did call and the owner send out someone to spray. But definitely need heavy treatment inside and outside the house.
3. If you don't just LOVE the smell of cedar... then this is NOT the house for you. It is wall to wall cedar planks!
4. Kitchen was fitly! We used a ton of Clorox wipe to make sure it was clean.
5. The house is listed as 2 bathroom!!! Read the fine print.... I did not. It is 2 half baths. 1st half bath is a toilet and sink.... One door to the half bath leads into a hallway ant the second door into the master bedroom. The 2nd half bath has a sink and a bath/shower. If any guest needs to use the shower they have to enter through the master bedroom. Large family gatherings beware! This half bath, was FULL of ants and was very dirty, dungy and OLD!
6. The tv's are listed as smart but you cannot log into any streaming sites, because the owners has them locked out.
7. Outdoor area was nice and the view of the lake as great and a great escape from what was inside.
I was looking forward to our stay be left disappointed!

Hosted by Cyndi Ransom
Married 38 years to my husband, Gary. I'm a native Texan. I grew up in the country, spending most of my weekends on the lake fishing and camping with my family. Our children are grown now, so it's just us. We purchased the lake house to make memories and enjoy it with our children and grandchildren.
Our newest lake home, The Hidden Jewel is so special to me. I fell in love with this beautiful home with soaring ceilings and it's unique features. I hope you will love it too.
