We loved this location!

This massive home was more than we expected! The parking was very large, even with our boat. The home itself had huge rooms to sprawl out and relax, and the lake access was wonderful. We will definitely stay here again!

The Perfect Summer Getaway ☀️

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this VRBO on Lake Santa Fe's canal! The property is stunning, with plenty of space for our entire group to spread out and relax. The pool was a definite highlight. The home was well-equipped and immaculately clean. We couldn't have asked for a better getaway spot and will definitely be returning. Five stars all the way!
