Great place on the lake in East Texas

We stayed here to celebrate an important wedding anniversary. Our host was great. The place was exactly as described and shown. The house was well-equipped. We loved the view of the lake and spending time in the East Texas woods.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Check-in, communication
The property on the outside is as shown, beautiful and you could not ask for a better view. We had very little contact with the host, but they seemed very nice through email contact, etc. The kitchen was the only area of concern. There was a wonderful refrigerator. The stove was a classic, interesting to look at, but probably should not be in an rental property. Using it to cook for 6 people was cumbersome. The kitchen needs a deep cleaning. The beds were comfortable and clean. Nice washer and dryer.

Thank you for the feedback. Our Classic Chambers stove came with the house and no one makes them like that anymore. We find it lovely but understand it's not for everyone. We are happy you had a wonderful time!

This was the second time we have stayed in this well-provisioned lake home. The property has a large, fenced yard with a lake view and a dock. The owners are so friendly and thoughtful. I give this home the highest ratings.

Pleasant stay on the lake

The Blue Pelican lake house was well equipped for our 7 person, 3 night stay over Thanksgiving. Plenty of space, seating, dining areas and entertainment for all. Nice covered boat dock where we launched our kayaks from. Enjoyed time around the fire pit using the seasoned fire wood that was provided. Historic electric oven was able to handle our Thanksgiving preparations along with the dual gas and charcoal grill.
