This was our fourth trip to Dawson Lake and we are already looking forward to our next visit. We enjoyed hiking, swimming, fishing, and relaxing in the hot tub and sauna. It's the perfect place for a secluded vacation.

Great stay, beautiful lake settingThe lake and lake house were the highlight of our trip — having a full kitchen down there made it so easy to spend the whole day by the water without having to head back up to the main house. The property itself is stunning and the grounds are incredible.The main house could use a few updates/upgrades here and there, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. Between the lake, the trails, and the peaceful setting, we had a wonderful time and would consider staying again.

Fantastic location and property

The house is perfect for a family. Well stocked and very serene/quiet location. The property itself is very unique - sprawling with lots of woods and trails, as well as the pool and lake. We will definitely be back.

This place delivers!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property including the pool and house were amazing. Spent most of the day down by the lake enjoying the pool, hot tub and lake along with the amenities provided by the owners. Enjoyed the remote location and privacy! We will be back-

Very private with beautiful little lake

The private land and lake make this property so unique. If you have a camping mindset then the little house with feel like me than enough. The buildings could all use some refreshing but the atmosphere and amenities on the land more than make up for it. We would stay here again!

Peaceful Retreat

Lovely location. Spent our time on the lake in the boats and fishing. The only negative was the beds which are very low to the ground - they could use some updates and a box spring.

Beautiful and well equipped house. Incredible views. Just a short walk over to the lake, pool, hot tub and sauna. (Fun even in the winter!) Wonderful and responsive owner and caretakers. I recommend this property wholeheartedly.

Everything was excellent. The property is beautiful and does not disappoint. The house is very large with a stocked kitchen and plenty of towels in the bathroom. The pool and lake area are beyond compare. The whole family enjoyed fishing, boating, and swimming. Lots of pool floaties and toys were available. Mark was very responsive to all questions. We will be back!

Beautiful, secluded, relaxing vacation

Our stay had many benefits for the whole family. We normally go to the beach, but the gorgeous house hidden in the woods was just as fun. The walk or bike ride from the house to the lake provides plenty of exercise but a car may be necessary if you are bringing large or delicate objects down from the house. The house was very roomy and it was relaxing to be able to play in the infinity pool, hot tub, and lake all day and then come back to rest at the end of the day. GORGEOUS VIEWS!!

Peaceful, relaxing, and something for everyone

This was the best family getaway. It has something for everyone to enjoy. We used the kayaks and canoe daily along with the sauna, hot tub, and pool. We drove over to the pool house daily and would have lunch along with dinner. We caught bluegill, crappie and tons of bass fish. There is plenty of towels and having washer/dryer on site made it so easy to always have clean towels the following day. It was so much fun and hope to return next year!

Paradise

We've stayed at many VRBO's and this was the best! The lake and pool area is unreal. The house is awesome as well. Great beds, kitchen supplies, clean bathrooms, etc. Mark the caretaker was super nice as were the other workers on the property. It is a good drive from much of anything, but Lewisburg about 28 minutes has a bunch of great restaurants and things to do. We stopped at Kroger in Lewisburg and got most of what we needed to cook for the week The gorge is about an hour but is worth the trip. Lost Caverns is definitely worth a visit as well. Would definitely stay here again!

Had an amazing time at the lake house. Whilst there was a slight mix up with booking, Rick was quick to rectify and actually just ended up with me extending my time out in WV so all good! The property is extremely clean and well stocked, with amazing views once you get out to the pool house, which is circa 10 minute walk away. I loved the fact the pool house also had a full kitchen so I did cook a pizza with a cheeky glass of wine (or two!) on the last night. This is, easily, a five star property and having 200 acres to yourself is pretty special. I don’t really have any development points other than the pool was drained when I was there (not that I was planning to use it in October!) and I couldn’t find any canoes / kayaks to use but that’s probably down to me for not messaging the host to arrange. Bottom line - book it. You won’t be disappointed!

2nd Trip better than the 1st

We visited for the week for our second time in 2 years. Again, expectations were met and exceeded! Everything was clean and wonderful from the start. We spent most of each day at the lake and pool enjoying the beautiful surroundings and things to do. The only people we encountered on property were the maintenance guys who were exceptionally nice and gave us descriptions and info about the property. 6 adults, 11 year old, 3 year old and infant. We left the property just twice. Once spending the day in near by Lewisburg, which is a great little town to explore. We recommend sitting outside at the Humble Tomato. Then another day we explored the New River Gorge, about 45 minutes away. We hiked and then went Ace Resort water park, inflatables on the water, for the 2nd time as well and it was great again. We love this property and will definitely be back in the future! Highly recommended!
