We absolutely loved this house. Quintessential Florida charm tucked away in the trees with a breath- taking lake view. Our favorite part of staying here was sitting on the screen porch in the thunder storms listening to the noise of the rain and frogs and bugs while the lizards and frogs gave us a show on the screens. We can't wait to come back.

We love this place. We are those people who like to relax on vacation and do nothing. Rocking on the porch drinking coffee listening to birds looking at all the wonderful trees and lake. Small little town near family has all the basic stores needed and a few restraunts. But within 30 min to 45 min is just about everything else if you want. And Destin isn't much further if you want more sand in your shoes. Always clean and all the basics needed. Communication is great.

This was our 5th time at this property. We are so lucky to have found it, it has become a special family getaway and we have created so many memories here. The place is always just perfect- beds are comfy, the perfect amount of space for our family of four and a great space to bbq and hang out by the firepit. The views are spectacular and the proximity to the springs is unbeatable. My kids will never forget the he memories we’ve made here. My 13 year old daughter said when she has kids, she’s going to bring them here every summer and continue the tradition.

The home was exactly as described. The location was secluded but I felt very safe with all the doors having dead bolts. This Lakeside home was very "homey", comfortable and very clean. I would definitely return especially when the weather was warmer so i could enjoy the screened in porch and the dock. Theresa was very accommodating.

Honestly we were only inside for sleeping. We spent the entire time out on either the deck or on the screened in porch. My mom called the screened in part her little tree house, because it felt more like being in the trees due to how the property sits. Even though all the beautiful oaks & magnolia trees block a full view of the lake from the porches, you only have to wander over to the pavilion, fire pit or dock to take in it’s beauty. So many wonderful memories my momma & her sisters made as they reunited for the first time in several years. Thank you for opening your home to us.
