Dock Holiday is an excellent place to stay and the accomodations provided by the owners are above and beyond. You couldn't ask for anything more! We enjoyed riding the pontoon on the lake and later, sitting on the deck we enjoyed looking out at the lake, watching the boats and the birds. Making smores at the fire pit was fun too! They provide many amenities including games and a separate game room. We definitely recommend this location.

This is our 3rd year staying at Dock Holiday. Its our favorite spot. This year the kitchen was fully updated with a dishwasher and they turned the garage into a game room. That was awesome for the kids and us adults! The owner is very nice and awkward available if you need her . Can't wait for next year's stay.

We were looking for a lake vacation that was family and dog friendly, with all the "water toys." Dock Holiday did not disappoint! The owners were super nice and responsive to all our questions. They thought of everything in case you forgot some things! We loved renting the boat and the lake was perfect for tubing/skiing etc. We went during a busy time and always felt safe having the kids on the tube etc. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing lake vacation! Dom and Donna are great hosts!

The owners property and efforts are outstanding!They have thought of everything to make this a 5 star stay Everything from bath towels to kitchen appliances. The outside is fully stocked for water activities and kicking back on the deck or dock to enjoy the beautiful lake and views. The onsite boat rental was a great added bonus ! We will definitely return - the lake house on Badin Lake is a hidden gem

Awesome July4th!

The house was exactly as pictured online! The porch furniture was awesome and we enjoyed sitting on the sectional and teal chairs. Having the lake close by was awesome and we enjoyed the boat! Loved our stay!

We loved the property! The kayaks and lake mat were phenomenal for my kids and nieces. Plenty of room for everyone. Fully stocked kitchen for cooking, also lots of towels for bath and lake. They left the sweetest welcome basket with snacks and a stocked coffee bar with local coffee and tons of choices of k cups! Icing on the cake was the converted garage into a game room! We played in there every night. We were very entertained for our whole stay, only left for the grocery store and ice cream! We will be back!
