Excellent Property and Fantastic Host

We all run into issues in our lives. Our host kept me updated well before our stay and after check in. Very quick response with every question. The property is perfect for a quick getaway to the Lake Palestine area. We will definitely book this site again.

Quaint getaway, perfect for our needs

Jan was a perfect host! She made sure all of our needs were met and even brought us Strawberry Cheesecake dessert! It was storming very badly the day we were to leave and Jan sent us a text to extend our stay if needed because of the weather. That was so nice because i was not sure we were going to make the 11am check out time with tornados in the area.

Yet ANOTHER Wonderful Stay

This truly is a Hideout, in the best way - a spotless retreat, and yet near many places. My wife and I have had 2 long stays here, enjoying a full kitchen and all amenities, at a price that allowed us to stay long enough to completely relax. Jan, I should add, saw to our few needs almost instantly. A gracious hostess, but letting us be private as well. Perfect for couples seeking some peace, or a place near the lake, or writers wanting to finish their book, or, or. Cozy and welcoming.

Consistently wonderful!

If you are looking for a nice, quiet, clean, comfortable place to stay away from home and you are looking in the area of The Hideout, look no further! Jan is a wonderful host and always has everything just right when you arrive. She has added a nice little patio with table, chairs, and grill which isn’t depicted in the picture just yet. I stayed a few days and enjoyed the quiet peaceful time, getting away for a bit. Her setting is perfect, backed up to woods. I sat and enjoyed the birds on the patio this trip. I’ve stayed several times before and will definitely stay again! Thank you Jan for making my stay perfect!

Returned to stay again

This was my second stay at The Hideout and it was very relaxing. Jan has everything anyone would need in this cozy cabin. I was there for 2 nights to have some “me” time and enjoyed the quiet, peaceful time. Thank you Jan. I will return again. You have a great place for anyone wanting a bit of a getaway.

A Perfect little hideaway!

The host were amazing! The place was super cute, had everything you could need. Very clean and organized. The location is perfect for having to visit the grocery store or eatery’s. I highly recommend staying here. This is by far one of the best AirB&B I have rented. Thank you Jan for all your hospitality.

An awesome little place to stay

This place was perfect for me and my kids ages 4-10. It had dishes and silverware, only a microwave to cook with, but it worked perfectly for our short stay. It was clean and I couldn't ask for a better place. Overall it would be a great little place to crash for a get away or just to stay away from hotels.

Tiny Home Hideout

My friend and I had a lovely stay at a cute little place in Flint for a fun weekend away from home. The host was very friendly. When a tornado warning was given she invited us into her home for safety until it was over. She checked with us to see if we needed anything. And she surprised us with a birthday cake when she learned it was my birthday. We may have to return one day!

Title: Wonderful Stay at Jan's Property Review: We recently stayed at Jan's property, and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. The property was exactly as described and pictured, and it was spotlessly clean upon our arrival. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided, and the amenities were in excellent condition. Jan, our host, went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. From the moment we booked, Jan was responsive and helpful, providing us with all the necessary information and answering any questions we had promptly. During our stay, Jan was available when needed but also gave us our privacy, striking the perfect balance. The location of the property was great, with easy access to local attractions and activities. We enjoyed the nearby restaurants, shops, and parks as well as spending time at the property, taking in its breathtaking views and relaxing atmosphere. We can't recommend Jan's property enough for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation rental. The attention to detail, outstanding hospitality, and incredible location make this property a top choice for your next VRBO stay. We are already looking forward to returning!
