We had a fabulous week at this property! Communication with the owner was top notch. He was so helpful. The neighbors were great too! We had a large group and the living areas were great for hanging out. We spent a lot of time on the deck. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were great. The kitchen is smaller but even with a large group I was able to cook for everyone comfortably. We did eat at the property every night but one. Definitely a five star rating for this listing! I would give it more stars if I could. Would definitely book again! ##### Laura I. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Malorie S. 18 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Secluded getaway We had a great time at this property. My husband and his father used to frequent Morrow Mtn when he was a child, and we had the pleasure of taking our son there for the first time during this trip. It was only a 15 minute drive to the park from the home. The house accommodated more ppl than we brought, but it was perfect for what we needed. The home offered multiple floors of rooms and space, plus it also included toys for young children. Our son loved playing with them so much! The fenced in deck was super helpful for us as well; it allowed our son the freedom to explore safely. It would be beneficial, though, for the property manager/owner to frequently pressure wash the home as there were many thick spider webs, accumulation of pollen and tree debris along the decks, stairs, outside furniture and outside walls of the home. Makes it uncomfortable and difficult to fully enjoy the outdoor areas. We did also have damp, bleach stained towels for use in the bathrooms. We washed them, but wasn’t expecting to have to do that without having used them first. Overall, it was a great place to stay and visit the park, make memories, and enjoy our family time. We would rent again. ##### Malorie S.

Excellent stay at this property. It was our first time to Lake Tillery and we adored every minute. This house is situated perfectly on the Lake. Wooded and private and the waterfront deck is positioned with a perfect view. Lots of outdoor seating options and things to do. We loved the paddle board included and used it everyday. We also brough floats - highly recommend - we floated on the Lake everyday! Inside, plenty of space and bedrooms. Very nicely decorated. The basement was huge and provided for a whole separate "hang out" for the kids. Everything you needed in the kitchen and and all the perks like ceiling fans and TV's in every room. Beds were all very comfortable. Really great hosts, incredible stay, and can't wait to go back! This house will exceed your expectations! PS - if you rent you must try RIVER WILD... a restaurant less than 10 minutes from house. Great food and outdoor dining on lake! We went twice! ##### Jennie V.
