This house is perfect! Everything you could possibly need for a fun and relaxing getaway! Our pups felt so welcome and we did too! The view to the water is gorgeous with the huge oak trees and spanish moss. The house is spacious and very clean. The little extra details from the hosts make you feel welcome and are a really nice touch! We will definitely visit again!
The property was clean. Check-in and check-out process was super efficient. The owners thought of every age when outfitting the property with things to do. Overall an excellent vacation rental!
The house was wonderful vrry comfortable they have everything you need for a stay. The only thing was the dogs next door they never stopped barking night and day they have 4 dogs and everytime we walked outside it was bad
We had a great family trip at the Bunkhouse! The owners thought of every detail when it comes to entertaining. Easy check in/out and everything was very clean. Highly recommend for a lake getaway!
Great property right on the lake. Lots to do and plenty of boat ramps near by. Host is great to communicate with and will have this home set up for your stay. Great location with some privacy and great neighbors if you happen to meet any.
We had a wonderful stay at the Bunkhouse! It’s a beautiful property, and the lights in the trees at night are magical! Grest places to eat, to explore and to hike are close by. We will be back!
Qe enjiyed it very much , was a very nice get a way it felt like a true camp house to go fishing although we didnt catch many due to tournaments and cold weather this house made the stay worth it we enjoyed our weekend with our family here will be going back to stay at the bunckhouse
Had everything we needed. The hammock chairs were blissful. The lake view was awesome. Spotting Julian the alligator a couple of times was very cool. Mill Creek Food & Spirits at the marina was delicious with beach-y drinks. Just overall a relaxing, dog friendly vacation.
Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our time at this house. Bringing our two dogs with us made it even better! This house is full of indoor and outdoor activities for all ages. In addition, the owners were responsive and helpful when messaged. Definitely recommend!
The pictures online don’t do this property justice! We felt like we were back on our childhood homes, from the decor to the appliances it was amazing. The view is gorgeous and there were so many things to do while we were here. No need to bring extra games and things they have it all. We definitely want to consider making this an annual trip at this property.
I loved the vintage feel. The kitchen was my fave. Such a nice quiet relaxing getaway that was very much needed. Thank you so much for opening your beautiful home to us.
Cool little lakefront property on a quiet cove. Kept our boat tied up at the dock all week. Has everything you need and then some. They thought of it all! Short ride to the grocery store in town. We loved the retro decor. The house was very clean and had some great outdoor spaces to relax.
Just book this place because it has a great throwback vibe, it’s on the water, and it has all the amenities you’d need for a fun stay on the lake. Since it is on the lake make sure you bring bug spray during the warmer months. I can’t wait to book again. I could write an entire novel but take my word. You’ll have fun! And bring s’mores.
The property was more impressive in person. The inside and outside areas were more than comfortable and accommodating. The outside TV was nice to enjoy the football game and the weather, the comfortable breezes while having views of the water. Kitchen was spacious enough for multiple people to be able to prep and cook meals. Outside grills were great. Very dog friendly. I could type for a while describing all the positives about this property. A weekend is not a long enough time to enjoy all that this property has to offer.
The online photos do not do this place justice! It is a beautiful property. I absolutely adored the retro decor and appliances and how everything brought back so many childhood memories.
The rooms are spacious and clean. Pet friendly (they even had bowls!) There was nothing I could have asked for more.
The lake is gorgeous! There are swings, cornhole, darts, board games, DVDs, SO much fun stuff! And chairs! Camp chairs and laying out chairs.
I am already planning our next trip. If I could live there permanently, I would!!!!
A very welcoming and cozy home to spend a long weekend! Owner communication was excellent-provided great directions and made sure we had everything we needed for arrival.Home is very clean and even had firewood for the outside firepit available. We would love to come back again!
we had a great time. the only problem we had was ants but I went to the store and got 2 cans of ant spray and took care of the problem. we were very satisfied with the house and all the extras that come with it. definitely will stay here again,Thanks to the owners and the accommodations they provided.
