Loved the Stay

We had a great time in this home. We had a group of kids between the ages of 1 and 7 and all had a great time. The home is well supplied with towels, bedding, kitchen supplies. It was a short drive to the lake/state park. We really enjoyed it.

Perfect spot to hang and connect with family and friends

Great common area and very convenient bedrooms and bathrooms. Kids (0-5yo) loved it and we enjoys the sunrises and sunsets over the lake with the giant window in the living room. Would definitely want to come back! We even accidentally left a blanket from our 2yo and they made sure we got it back.

Dirty House

The house was filthy. Especially the kitchen. Bugs along the walls, dirt in the cabinets. We actually excited about the hot tub bbut we were nervous it was dirty and when we got the lid off it was full of water AND leaves. Obviously did not use.

1st Stay in a Vacaaa in Texas

The was spacious and clean. The jacuzzi was clean and the temp was just right. Manager was quick to respond to one of our questions. However, the water was so close in the pictures but so far away when got there it was very disappointing we weren't told the water was that far down. Only other things needing improvement is cookware and cooking utensils. There is plenty of silverware, plates and glasses though. Lat but not least the pressure in the kitchen sink was very low and the gas burners when turned on at the highest was about a med high on a regular stove top. It took much longer to cook the normal. With that said we would stay there again we just want to point out a few things that need attention to improve the travelers stay.

Loved the house. The lake wasn’t in the back of it but it caught lots of water so it was by the time we left. The neighbors were great.

We enjoyed the home. Very cozy. I wanted a lakefront property so I was a little disappointed when we got there but when we left, it was definitely a lakefront property. Filled up quite nicely.

Great place for extended family to meet up

We had a great stay with family from other parts of Texas. The size of the living and kitchen area seems much larger than the photos. We were all able to comfortably sit and talk, play games, etc. We had a great time and will book again!

Nice quiet, rustic getaway

Property is great and with a big outdoor space in a quiet neighborhood. Wonderful for our family to run around and have outdoor fun. Grocery stores, restaurants, and other outings are about 20 -30 minutes away so plan accordingly. We loved hiking at Inks state park and the Longhorn caverns!

ONLY downfall to this place was the lake level being low and having to find water at other spots. Other than that, very clean and nice place.

The house was great and accommodated all 11 of us comfortably. We were disappointed in the lake level and didn't realize how low it would be when it is 75% full.
