We loved the property and especially the great fishing dock.We had great hopes of catching fish and planed to fish morning noon and night. I have very good equipment and was well prepared. I went to an area bait dealer and got good tips on what to use for bait and how to fish from the dock. Also discussed with a neighbor.Unfortunately nothing worked and all we caught were a few very small catfish. Not many either. Loved the property, facilities but very dissapointed. We paid a very hansome price expecting to catch some fish. Sorry, but we wouldnt recommend.
Worth every cent. Very private and just like the pictures. We enjoyed our stay there and had a wonderful time. Didn’t catch much but very relaxing and very private. Communication with host was wonderful and everything was just as she described. Will stay again in the future
