Escaping the desert heat

Everything we had hoped for. Very clean, well equipped, and comfortable. Only negative was I had hoped we could just jump into the lake and enjoy, but not so much due to the muck.

Nice place

The house is comfortable with a lot of room and a large open carpeted basement. There is a good view of the bay and a boat lift for small watercraft.

All the comforts of home

Everything about this rental home was above what we expected. Lots of room, everything worked and we had everything we needed. Clean, comfortable beds and air conditioning. We fished off the dock, relaxed on the deck and had room for all. Very pleased!

Nice stay

The property is at the end of the bayou. It’s a little tough for getting fishing boats to the pier, and will be very weedy in the summer months, but we made it work. The house was great. The light above stove didn’t work which made cooking a little harder, but otherwise everything in the house was nice with plenty of space.

Just what we needed

This home is exactly what we were looking for as a place to stay while fishing. Plenty of room and communication with manager/owner was excellent. We will be back.
