The property was clean, organized and had every amenity we needed. Our family enjoyed the fire pit, spending many hours on the dock, pedal boating, and walking around the community. Our hosts were very responsive and checked in to see if we needed anything. Overall wonderful stay!

A Beautiful, Peaceful Getaway From the City With a Pool the Kids Loved, a Cozy Campfire, and Wonderful, Responsive Hosts
Jose and Jennifer were wonderful hosts. Very responsive and appreciated that they were in constant communication with us. Their house was beautiful! It’s a very peaceful neighborhood, a great place to stay to get away from the city noise. My niece and nephew had a blast in the pool, there were plenty of seats by the campfire. Definitely a place I would recommend!
My family had a great vacation at Old Mallard! Traveling with 2 little ones, this home had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The pool and hot tube were prefect hang out spots for both kids and adults. The lake is quiet and so relaxing. Definitely recommend!

We’re delighted your family had such a relaxing vacation at Old Mallard, Mary! It’s great to hear the pool, hot tub, and peaceful lake made the stay enjoyable for both the kids and adults.
The property was spotless on arrival. The cleaning staff was leaving when we arrived and she was very friendly and helpful which was a bonus. The rooms were comfortable and the fireplace made for cozy evenings by the fire. The ample kitchen allowed us to prepare awesome food for the week. My one regret was waiting until the end of the week to try the hot tub. I should have enjoyed that every evening. The property was close to many trails and waterfalls that were beautiful and relaxing at peak foliage season. We also loved sitting out on the deck warming ourselves in the afternoon sun. Thanks for a fantastic Fall Foliage week!
Our family of 7 adults and 2 young children had a perfect vacation here. We enjoyed the pool, fishing, the kayak, the canoe, bbq, fire pit, community beach and pool. Jose was very responsive to our requests. Some updates are needed to justify the high cost. These were communicated to the owner.

Very cozy and beautiful home. Perfect for a quick getaway very quiet area views by the lake is amazing. Everything you can ask for from the lake to the pool to the jacuzzi. The house is kept very clean all the amenities you can ask for the s’more station supplied is a great way to welcome their guests as well as the recommendations. Best part of the trip was putting on a fire inside to walking outside on the deck to seeing a family of deer just in the backyard laying around.
The rooms were clean and comfortable and the host thought of everything. ALL your needs are met.

My family and I absolutely loved our stay here. The home itself is beautiful, clean, thoughtfully designed, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. The heated pool was huge and incredibly clean! The lake was truly the hidden gem for me.
My family and I absolutely loved our stay here. The home itself is beautiful, clean, thoughtfully designed, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. The heated pool was huge and incredibly clean, with tons of floaties to enjoy, and the hot tub was amazing.
But the lake was truly the hidden gem for me. They have kayaks and a little pedal boat available, and even though I don’t normally kayak, I ended up taking one out on my own with my little dog. It was honestly one of my favorite moments of the entire stay. The lake is so serene and beautiful, no matter what time of day you’re out there. I can’t remember the last time I felt that peaceful.
We also loved seeing the deer casually wandering through the backyard. They were completely harmless and so beautiful to watch. The surrounding homes were quiet and respectful, which made the whole setting feel even more relaxing.
The hosts were friendly, helpful, and extremely responsive whenever we needed anything.
