What the owner loves about this home
Sharing reviews from guests:
*We had a wonderful stay! The home was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was perfect, close to all the sightseeing and attractions throughout Land Between the Lakes, with the lake just a short walk away. The neighborhood was quiet, beautiful, and made for a relaxing getaway. John and Julie were wonderful hosts. Highly recommend!
*This house was great for a golf/fishing weekend. There was plenty of parking for two trucks with boats. It was very clean and had everything we needed. The neighborhood felt very safe to keep boats in the driveway while away or asleep. Check in was very easy and the check out instructions were very simple and quick, which is always appreciated.
