This property was PERFECT for our large family gathering. The kitchen was big enough for a few of us ladies to cook, enough utensils and pans, etc. It’s far enough from the lake that we didn’t need to worry about the kids wandering down without us. The expansive yard was ideal for kids to play outside. The dock was great for swimming! We want to try to make this an annual trip to the property. Such a great host, very responsive! The area is so quaint!

Secluded, well-kept, great fishing

Beautiful, secluded property. Clean home with all the comforts needed. Floating dock worked great for our boats and although the water was high, we still caught a lot of fish. Hope to make it back sooner than later!

Perfect Place for a Family Getaway

A great place for our family getaway to celebrate multiple significant birthdays. Ten of us and plenty of room for everyone. Two nice docks on the lake, perfect for swimming of fishing. Off a quiet cove on Kerr lake, well protected from the wind on the main channel. Water level in the lake was very high with lots of debris in the main channel, but clear calm water there, perfect for boating, fishing and swimming. We had a great Memorial Day weekend and will definitely be back.

Also Jetskier Paradise

While this is listed as a fisherman’s paradise, it worked very nicely for a weekend of playing on jet skis. Kept them tied at the dock after putting in at the ramp near Rudd’s Marina. Lots of sleeping space meant the kids could bring friends too. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of dishes and utensils.

Family Getaway

Great size house. We had 6 adults and 5 kids. The private dock was a 5 min walk from the house. Love how deep the water is at the dock. Probably around 20 ft deep. Caught a drum and catfish both over 12" right off the dock. The kitchen is well equipped and great size. The grill outside under a covered porch is nice to have. Our stay was very comfortable.

Beautiful Retreat

The house and grounds are a wonderful retreat for a big family. Lots of room for everyone. The house is full of light, the wrap-around porch a delight to watch a rainstorm, have conversation, and listen to nature. The docks are great for star-gazing. The fish-cleaning station is a great feature! The kitchen is nice and big for multiple cooks. We enjoyed the seclusion and privacy of the extensive grounds. We would love to return again!

Best country river retreat you will take.

We had a great time. The layout of the property was perfect. Lots of space to do whatever your heart desires in the country wirh the added bonus of the river. That was also perfect the layout of the ri er makes tou feel like it is just you out there. The house was also spacious. Nice comfortable beds and updated appliances and showers. The wrap around first leve porch was wonderful for the younger kids while the big kids took over the balcony. We will be making this our family rental throughout the year.

Nice private dock a ways from the house. Caught some catfish. Lots of open space. The Starlink internet was out during our whole stay making it impossible to watch any videos at night w the family. I spent hours trying to get it working for several days. Our regular cell coverage was very spotty so we couldn’t really use it either. My wife had to go work in the car driving up the road until she got some cell signal. It was not the owners fault , but it made things very difficult and no adjustment of compensation was offered. A/C worked well and other than the internet activity everything else was smooth. Utility room smells of natural gas so we didn’t sleep in that room. Other than losing a large part of two days trying to solve the internet issue, everything else was very good. Very private.

Excellent Property - We loved it!

Spent 3 nights at Violet's Grove on a fishing trip weekend. The property is very nice. We saw turkeys and deer out in the fields on two mornings. The house is roomy and well equipped. Everything was in great shape and we really enjoyed out stay. We felt like it was home and we will be looking to rent this property again.

The Perfect Getaway!

I've either rented this property or have been a guest of friends who've rented for many years. This is one of my favorite destinations because the kids forget about their electronics and actually engage (and enjoy) in activities making it a traditional family vacation. There's so much to do beyond the lake with the large amount of land this house sits on. Whether it's making s'mores around the fire pit, a game of kickball or slip n' slide wiffle ball, we are never bored. The private cove is so secluded that we feel safe with the kids paddle boarding or kayaking to nearby shorelines. It's even rare we see a boat on popular holiday weekends! The large covered wrap-around porch is perfect for relaxing on the porch in any type of weather. The house is perfect for multiple families, there's plenty of space and the kitchen is fully stocked. If you want to create a summer family tradition, I highly recommend a trip to Violet's Grove!

Relaxing!

We had a little family reunion there and everyone really enjoyed it. The owner is very nice and easy to work with. Great big yard for kids to run around. I keep picturing a few horses there :-). The kitchen could have been a little more organized. The pantry can use some cleaning. Quite a few expired food items. But overall, we were satisfied and will definitely go back.
