Family getaway

We have stayed at many properties, in multiple countries, and this was by far the nicest and the closest to home. Everything about the property was first rate. The Meridian Beach community was very welcoming and we enjoyed launching our own kayaks into the canal and paddling out onto the lake. The enclosed yard was a bonus to allow our two dogs to run and play and the fire pit in the yard was wonderful for relaxing after fun filled days. Thanks very much to Rocque for his hospitality!

Perfect weekend getaway at the lake!

Roc is a great host! Communication was second to none. The cleaning staff were one hour over our due date and he messaged me right away but wasn’t an issue as we were an hour late arriving. We also couldn’t find the cookie sheet to cook fries and he answered my message within an hour and said he’d bring pans soon but suggested we look in another cupboard and we found them. He also brought two new cookie sheets the next morning ! The cottage was amazing and everyone loved the views and property. Roasting s’mores by the fire with family is an amazing experience. The Halloween celebrations were amazing and the whole family loved the festivities. The host also informed us of the event week ahead of time so we could prepare. Will definitely be back! Thanks again Roc for doing an amazing job!

This property is amazing. The house is first class. A 5 star accommodation. Fully equipped kitchen with all amenities provided. Rocque an amazing host. Very friendly and responsive. I believe he lives in the home when it’s not rented. That means it’s fully equipped with everything you need for daily living. It backs onto the canal with a great dock and convenient access to Gull Lake. We really enjoyed relaxing on patios and roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The furnishings were all top quality.Can’t think of enough good things to say about it. We’ve stayed at a lot of VRBO’s over the years and Rocque’s property is definitely the best.
