21st birthday celebration with friends

This place has plenty of room and has many spaces for entertaining. We had 14 people and we had the best of time. The doc had plenty of room as well. The bedrooms and bathrooms are very nice and we were acquired with many towels and kitchen/cleaning appliances. There were also many shaded areas outside to hang out since it was very hot. My only complaint is that we had one less bed than expected from what is said. The air mattress in the closet does not blow up. It sleeps 13 not 14, but I bought an air mattress for one person and it worked out. Overall I would definitely recommend and come back again!

Quality accommodations

I was very impressed with the layout of the home. I wiil be back. Whoever designs and upkeeps the home spares no expense on the quality of items that are supplied for the stay. My family was very impressed and was able to relax, fish and enjoy the stay. The wifi could have been better but I just rationalized that it wasn't needed and we needed the the break. We caught as many fish as our skills would allow; even with the hot weather and no boat... Please if you choose to book, Keep IT CLEAN AND DON'T MESS IT UP!

Family Memories Made

Every year we pick a new destination and this place did not disappoint. There was plenty of room for every one inside and outside. Everyone loved the inside grill and 2 refrigerators and the space every where. If you stay here you will not be disappointed.

Everything you need!

This property was so wonderful! Along with everything advertised in the listing, there are so many congregating areas for friends to visit. The fire pit stayed lit the whole time and we were always congregating around it throughout the weekend. There is also a large flattop grill in the house along side a gas grill. In the main kitchen there was every thing you needed. (Pots, pans, sheet pans, lots of mixing bowls, appliances, and disposable utensils and bowls.) The dock on the water was wonderful to sit in the morning and evenings. Even though the water was low during our stay, we were able to dock a flat bottom boat, and travelled a short distance the dock our larger boat. Overall, we LOVED our stay.

Perfect Multi Generational Getaway

Plenty of different spaces to relax. A bit older place, with step down add ons. Very clean with comfortable beds. Well stocked kitchen, lots of towels, convenient trash cans everywhere, places for suitcases and hooks for clothes. Patio does need a new coat of paint, but it didn’t bother us. Great place!

It’s Good

Property was very clean, it was cute. Did the job. Negatives are that the pictures are very old, deck is now red and had peeling paint if thats any indication. Boat house was full of spiderwebs and not very well maintained. One of the bedrooms was hot. Lastly the cove wasn’t in the best location for swimming. Water was pretty stagnant and shallow. These are all things I wish I would have known before making the decision to stay. The ease of checking in was great.

Awesome stay

We came out for an adult weekend,, to unwind and relax. We were able to do that! Everything was fully stocked, from utensils to cleaning supplies, the furniture and decor was so cute and comfy. Plenty of extra bedding and blankets. We plan to return with our kids. Definitely obvious this place requires upkeep and tbey are doing a great job.

deceptive Vrbo listing

If you have a boat, you need to make sure the water level is high. The house location is on a very shallow part of the lake with stumps under the surface everywhere. I would not rent this property to launch/dock a boat. Even knowing the deeper channels to take, you could not get the boat to or from the house with the lake moderately low. Most Vrbo houses on Toledo will warn you, when you go to rent, that launching a boat is impossible when the water is low in the area. This renter will not. I ended up renting another house and leaving after a day with no refund. Also, this is a modular house with very low ceilings and each footstep vibrates the entire house... Not good for sleeping children or children that run around. Flimsy plywood hides holes in floors under rugs in kitchen and bathroom. Watch your step. There are many better located and better constructed properties on Toledo Bend, especially for the price per night. I would not spend the money for this location.

Overall the house was clean and provided what we needed, but had a couple of issues.

Overall the house was clean and provided what we needed for an extended weekend on the lake, but had a couple of issues that need to be addressed. The worst being the sewer sprinkler system is located right by the back deck and would go off every hour or so in the afternoons / evenings, the smell was so bad that it forced us to go inside. Also, the plywood patch work screwed down over a couple spots of soft/rotten flooring in the house did not impress, it actually prevented a bedroom door to not open locking that person in. I did remove that piece of plywood to prevent any future issues.
