Absolutely amazing place to stay!
This is by far the best place we have stayed. The owners are so kind and have the property set up perfectly. They have everything you could ask for set up and ready to go. We will be making this trip yearly now!

Kingsland stay
It was wonderful. Right on the water. Great views from inside and outside the house. We had happy hour under the cabana and watched the sun set. Coffee on the deck in the mornings. We grilled burgers on one of the excellent grills provided. Overall such a wonderful weekend!

Great Location
Beautiful views, deck and yard leading to waterfront; enjoyed the kayaks & lifejackets( lots of sizes!). We enjoyed the gas grill plus large gas griddle! We had everything we could need! The bedroom with bunk beds & regular bed is cramped size ( no place to hang clothes due to full of life jackets hanging). The 2 bathrooms are small and open into the main living space.

Thanks Patricia! We’re happy that you and your guest enjoyed your time at Retro Lakehouse and appreciate your input. We do maintain two of every size (including infant) of high-quality neoprene life jackets to accommodate all our prospective guests. The do take up most of the space on the 8’ long hanger rod. However, based on your feedback, we were able to rearrange the life jackets on the 8’ long hanger in the guest closet to ensure 2’ of hanger space for guests using that bedroom. While we could increase the space in east bedroom, we would either have to change out the queen-size bed for a full-size or remove the bunk beds. Neither is an ideal option for the variety of guests that we host. The best solution we could come up with is to ensure there was enough space on either side of the queen bed for folks to comfortably navigate. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any other suggestions/ideas for improving your stay in the future! Chris & Debbie

Loved this rental!
This was the perfect rental for my family of 5! All the basic necessities you could need, and then some. The owner was so nice and helpful. We rented a boat and he came to help us with the mooring whips because we had never used them. Such a cute little house in a great area of the lake! It was so peaceful in the mornings and afternoons! The beds were comfy, too! 5 stars from us!

Incredible Home and Location
We enjoyed staying at the Retro Lake House! We opened the door and everyone was amazed at the view. The home has everything you need for a great vacation. We checked into the house and didn’t leave for three days except for boating. The beds are comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything you needed . Chris and Debbie are wonderful hosts. We loved getting to visit with them.
