Absolutely lovely stay. This was the best stocked VRBO we’ve stayed at with plenty of towels, utensils, matching furniture, matching sheets, fishing rods, paddle board, kayak, lily pad float, all available at the property. It’s a very premium and new feeling building and we enjoyed playing on the adjacent golf course and docking a boat for lake activities. Would stay again
We had a great time! The house was perfect for 3 families traveling with kids. The kids had their own space downstairs with the bunk room, game room and TV, while the adults enjoyed the upstairs patio overlooking the lake. The dock was great. Kids loved the kayaks and SUP. There is also access to an awesome golf cart. The golf cart paths go all the way from Port Duncan to Shangri-La.
We had 11 people. Aged 14-76. It’s a great house. Owners have put great care into their vacation home and made sure about everything a vacationer may need is available. It was a very comfortable stay. Thank you Brandon and family.

Wonky - but we still had fun!
Deck was lovely to enjoy morning coffee. Dock is in shallow water at back of cove. Kitchen was wonky- dishwasher needs attention. Pictures make it look better than it is.
Lower level game room has short ceilings- clearly meant for kids- our 6’7” guest could only stand upright in one small portion - the ceiling was sloped. Regardless, our family had a good time together at the lake!!
Pricey for what you get, pictures & description highly exaggerated
We have an annual get together with friends at Grand lake & our normal house was not available so we decided to give this one a shot due to the gorgeous pictures. Upon arrival, our code did not work to get into the house. We snooped around & luckily the back door was unlocked, despite that being a little concerning. The owner was notified & generated us a new code. There is not enough parking for the advertised 14 people house, especially if you have a boat trailer. The house itself, was disappointing. The pictures are beautiful but the house & the neighborhood are rough considering the HEFTY price you get charged. There were dead bugs everywhere, even on the bathroom counters as if they weren’t wiped down. There were bug traps under beds & in corners that were loaded with dead spiders, those should have been replaced in the cleaning before we arrived. In the master room, water runs behind the shower & there was mold growing in the closet due to this. Owner was notified, although response was not professional. There was a chunk of hair in 1 of the full size beds, in the sheets. You have to have lots of strength to pry open the old kitchen cabinets & no filtered water or ice, not even ice trays to make ice. The dock is extremely unstable and the cove is disgusting. This house worked for a place to lay our heads at night, but the pictures and description are highly exaggerated. We would not recommend this house unless the price is significantly dropped & the cleaning improves.
Beautiful home in the back of the cove, perfect for swimming or using the amenities provided by the house. The neighbors were very friendly and there’s tons to do in the area! It was a great stay I would recommend to anyone!
Very beautiful house really good location very quiet and friendly neighborhood, boat dock worked really good with my 25 foot boat. We definitely will book this again.
We had a great stay, House fits and sleeps a lot of people, it is well otfitted, had everything we needed, check in and check out was very easy, We will be back :)
Amazing location on Monkey Island centrally located between all the fun that Island has to offer! As well as clean, spacious, and cozy. The owners were very helpful and made the whole process easy! Highly recommend
Just enjoyed hanging out with our adult kids for a few days. Property as advertised generally in good shape. Two of the bathrooms are really small, but we managed. Only issue encountered during the visit was promptly remedied by the owner. Overall a good experience.
We had fantastic communication from our host. Unfortunately due to a storm and a big tree that damaged the house prior to our stay we were not able to enjoy this beautiful property. We do hope to in the future though.
Very nice home that accommodated a large group for a weekend getaway. Quiet & Peaceful area for walking and within minutes to a marina for boat and jet ski rentals. The water was low and since the home sits at the end of a culvert cove, we could not bring a boat within the area of the home's dock. It might be that way all the time since it is at the very point of the cove, so plan ahead, you may want to rent a slip. Wonderful hosts that are very quick to respond and helpful with suggestions! Thanks for a great stay!
