Reviews

Cheers to another memorable family
week!
-August 2025
Great rental on the lake. Host was
very responsive and easy to work with. Would highly recommend this rental if
you have boats and like a quiet cove.
-May 2025
Graduation temporary home away from home.
Thanks for the welcome of your
home so we could all be together for my son's graduation from LU. The travels
to/from Lynchburg were a pain, but staying at the lake and enjoying your
property was lovely.
-August 2024
Great location!
-July 2024
Property was perfect for our
vacation. House was very spacious. Dock was large. We spent most of our time on
the dock. Kitchen was very well stocked with dishes. It was really nice to be
able to use the garage and having access to the extra refrigerator. It
would have been nice to have a smart TV downstairs (it was a tube TV with
a VCR no TV reception) so while we were playing air hockey and Foosball we
could see the news or Olympics. Other than that the house truly met all our
needs. We brought our own propane tank for the grill because ad said we
had to fill what we used (how do you measure that) but to our surprise it was
plumbed into a large tank. House also had a nice gentle sloped sidewalk to the
pier and deep clean water in the cove. Host was very pleasant and answered any
questions we had promptly. We will recommend this house to other family and
friends.

We loved this place. Great
location, Marina is close by and made boat rental easy. Great view from deck.
Spacious living room and nice dock. Very responsive host.

Feels like home. My family feels the love in this
home. We can tell many memories have been enjoyed here, and we continue the lifelong
memory making when we visited!
-July 2023
Great home, great location. We enjoyed our stay here very
much. Everything was top notch.

Tranquility - Family Time to reset
We love this lake! And this house
was perfect. It’s located in an ideal part of the lake. The charm and size of
the house was so perfect for my group of 8. The dock is perfect to fish and
float. We will be back!
