Once Again a Wonderful Stay

Third year in a row

We’ve stayed at this property for a week each summer for the past three years. Just booked next year’s trip! The best lake in the brained area by far! The owner is very responsive and often at his cabin next door - super friendly. Well stocked and so peaceful. We love it here!

Turn key stay

Last year we stayed at a different place on the lake and we needed to buy pots and pans to meet our cooking needs. With our stay at John’s place this year, it had everything we needed. Pots, pans, paper towels, garbage bags, cordless vacuum, extra blankets, coffee maker, air fryer, grill, fire wood, chairs around the fire pit, more plates than we needed. Everything we needed was there. Overall a great experience. Highly recommend this property and owner. Would definitely stay there again.

Best week of the summer

This was our 4th year staying at this lakeside cabin with our group of 9. Gorgeous views, dedicated dock, plenty of seating on the deck for meals, always meticulously cleaned before we arrive. We’ve gotten to know the owners who come up to the cabin next door on the weekend. They are like extended family now - and very prompt with any needs we have. Years of family memories have been made here!

Fantastic Rental

This property is wonderfully situated on beautiful Bay Lake and offered us everything we needed for our stay. Fantastic spot for sunrises. Plenty of lake shore and the dock space was great too. Check in and check out was easy and the owner John was engaging and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, including an occasional visit from Bama. We will recommend to others and not hesitate to stay here again. Thank you for sharing your home with us (and our friends next door in your other property).
