Yes we thank you so much for allowing us to have our dog with us. He is much needed for my anxiety attacks! We tried to clean up after ourselves as much as possible. Appreciate cleanliness and the soft towels and the washer and dryer world Plus. Won't hesitate to stay again. I could address fixing a couple things but didn't bother our stay. We called with a couple of problems and a took care of them as soon as they could. Tina

Three Swans

We came up for a high school graduation in the local area as well as to spend time with our family. The Lakehouse was beautiful inside and perfect for our stay. It had ample entertainment along with anything that we may have needed for our stay.

Short pleasant stay

Our stay was cut short due to travel issues and owing to weather b4 we arrived, the lake level was elevated. We enjoyed the lake house, the view and the local area (Colon). Would have liked to have time on the lake - maybe next time.

Quiet cabin

Great place if your looking for a quite, off the beaten path place to get away. Lake is great with a nice deck. Lots of floats and life jackets available. The house is very well stocked with everything you need. Kitchen has all the essentials. The town of Colon is about 10 minutes with a small grocery store and a few local places to eat .

Fantastic spot

This property was amazing. It was perfect for our little friend group. It has so much to offer, boats, lake access, fire pits, board games, etc. for a great price. The only thing was the water was extra hard and stained your skin orange. That being said we knew about the water before staying there and we are used to hard water so it really wasn't that big of an issue.

Quiet get away

Quaint little place with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It was great for my time in Colon. There are some quirks about the place but the managers are upfront about them when you book. For example it is well water and does sometimes have a slight smell to it. The bed could have been a little better, but I didn't have any trouble sleeping.

Extremely well stocked and so fun!

My pals, my dogs, and I stayed at this cabin and we 100% plan on returning. The cabin was extremely well stocked with necessities (sunscreen, bug spray, hand lotion, q tips, tons of kitchen equipment, spices, etc) and fun things (floaties, floating dock, games, DVDs, kayaks, canoes, firewood, frisbee golf, etc.). There's tons of outside seating, too, which is great because the lake is so cute! We were there on a a Tuesday - Thursday and did not see any neighbors so while there are houses close by, we still had solitude and privacy. It was 97 degrees out while we were there, but the one AC unit in the living room did a great job of keeping the cabin cool enough for the dogs and for sleeping. The property contact was super helpful and responsive as well! Really truly recommend for a cozy, fun time!!

Could have stayed longer

We rented this property for it's location near the Folton Wedding Barn. Wish we could have stayed a little longer to enjoy some time on the water and throw in a fishing pole. The home was well suited for two couples. They experienced a Tornado in May and there are a few things yet to be repaired. The trees will take some time to grow back out. The neighbor hood has made great strides in getting back to to normal. There are many items to be used in the water for both adults and kids. If you will have more than two vehicles parking would be a challenge. The pier and swimming raft look new. The home was well supplied with everything you need including lots of towels for swimming. Although there is no central air the large wall air conditioner cooled the entire home very well and we had 87degrees and 90% + humidity. This place would be great for a long or short stay, even some Ice fishing.

It was pleasant. Very quiet and wonderful view of the lake. Excellent fishing. I had a few things that required online access to complete, so I selected a locations that listed wifi. Unfortunately the wifi was extremely slow so U had a hard time sending email. That said if you want a remote spot where you feel left alone to fish, this is great. Most people do not rent a lake cabin for the internet access though...
