The kitchen was fully stocked, bedrooms are a good size with lots of closet space. Loved the back yard and deck, great for throwing the football and chipping with a club. The view of the lake was beautiful, the beach was just us, if you don't have water shoes, Tom's grocery has them! You can walk out super far which give an every better view. TC was super close, construction going on, but did not keep us from the shops and restaurants! Close to golf courses as a bonus:) ##### Shawn M.

Wow, our stay at this VRBO was amazing! The house was super clean and comfy, with all the cool stuff we needed. But let me tell you about that hot tub—talk about awesome! Picture this: It's a chilly spring morning, and we're chilling in the hot tub, surrounded by nature. It was like heaven! Seriously, the best way to kickstart our day or chill out after exploring. The hosts were top-notch, always making sure we were happy and giving us tips on what to do nearby. The place had everything, from a great kitchen to super comfy beds. We're already planning our next trip because this place rocked our socks off. If you want a relaxing escape with all the homey feels, this VRBO is it. Don't think twice, just book it! ##### James C.
