We had a great time! Beautiful sunset views! The house was very comfortable, fully stocked with everything we needed, and was in a great location on Lake Palestine. Our kids loved the bunk room and toys provided. We had a great time on the paddle board and kayak. The hosts were very kind and communicated quickly and efficiently. The private boat ramp they advertise in the listing isn’t useable, so I do recommend the host remove that from the listing title.

We are so glad your group had a wonderful time. It is a great place for all ages to enjoy. We have had many guests bring their boats and launch right there on property. We are sorry that you experienced difficulties.

The lake-front location of this home was beautiful and so peaceful. We greatly enjoyed our stay - the kitchen was so well supplied with all we needed for preparation of our family meals. We spent hours kayaking, enjoying the fire pit and walking in the area. Thank you to our gracious hosts! We hope to return one day.

Best Vacation Stay for Families!

This property is amazing! We never had any problems, everything was provided, and it really did feel like a second home. We had 5-7 kids there at all times ranging from 4yrs up to 21, and no one felt cramped. The property is very well-maintained and we loved every minute of our stay! We will be booking here again for sure!!!

Beautiful and spacious.

The house was perfect for our family with adult children and grandchildren for Thanksgiving. A cooking kitchen, the kids bunk room and availability of toys was a bonus. The land and the view were beautiful. We would choose this property again.

This is really a wonderful property and better than the pictures. We had 10 people here of all ages and didn’t feel on top of each other. The access to the lake was really easy and beautiful with the sun setting off the back porch. I’d highly recommend it!

Best place ever for families with children

This place was incredible! Perfect fit for our family. Beautiful home and hosts have thoughtfully furnished the home. The little touches of guest amenities address any need that may arise - think adult and children’s books, flyswatters, gift bag, toys, outdoor play areas - too many to list! The swimming area, fire pit, beautiful deck and hot tub were all fabulous. The kitchen, dining, and living area are so spacious as are the bedrooms and bathrooms. We loved our stay!
