This stay was the BEST. The location is peaceful, the catfish bit and the accommodations were ideal. The house is full of intentional comfort considerations: sound machines, air purifier, coffee/tea bar, plenty of various kinds of bedside outlets. My family, to include 2 teen boys, would stay again!

The only reason I'm giving this property a 5-star rating is because I can't give it a 10-star rating! :)It's a beautifully decorated, very comfortable place to stay, with lovely views. Perfect for kicking back and relaxing.

We had a great weekend at Duck, Duck, Getaway! The house was absolutely stunning, and the view of the lake could not be better. If you love to fish for catfish, this is the place for you! We enjoyed exploring the area, relaxing on the porch, and fishing off of the pier. A very quiet and relaxing property. The host was easy to contact and responded very quickly to any questions. Would definitely stay again!
