Great property, nice stay for a group
loved the property! it had nice group spaces to spend time in and lots of bedroom and bathroom options for a group. The Alexandria area is really fun as well. We had small children and the listing said something about a playground but there wasn't one on site. Otherwise it was great. We brought our fishing boat and the public launch is super close by.

You can’t go wrong!
If you’re looking for a vacation rental that meets all of your expectations for cleanliness, communication, location and being well stocked, this is it! If you have small children, they even supply a high chair and guard rails for a bed for the little ones. And when the property is described as having 6 bedrooms, it actually does have 6 different bedroom along with a main level and lower level living area. There's a great view of Lake Victoria although we stayed in mid November so we could not take advantage of water activities. I’d rent this place again in a heartbeat!

Amazing property!
This spacious, well kept home was perfect for our gathering of 9 adults. It had well stocked cupboards with utensils, glassware, dishes, and bakeware, along with coffee pots and filters. The seating options were perfect, allowing us to easily play games together and visit. Chris was attentive and responded quickly to our questions. After reading the stay journal, it’s obvious that he is open to feedback and has made improvements because of it. We will definitely be back!

Wedding
This property was perfect for our stay. Convenient because the wedding venue was only 15 minutes away. Economical because the cost was well under what we would have been spending for all the hotel rooms. 12 family members shared the house and it was amazingly comfortable. Enjoyed the large communal spaces where we could stretch out and relax all together as one group. A hotel room would have never accommodated that. The house and view were absolutely perfect. Can not think of even one thing that would have made the stay more enjoyable.

Our wonderful fun getaway
Everything was wonderful. The only issue we had was you could not swim in the lake because there was a great deal of debris and weeds around the dock. We had a great time fishing and everything in and around the house was great. We would love to come back. CHRIS IS THE BEST TO WORK WITH.

Perfect weekend getaway!
This was the perfect summer weekend getaway! Plenty of bedrooms and thoughtful open spaces to spend time together. Accommodated 7 adults and would easily accommodate families as well. Appreciated all of the kitchen supplies, labels, and detailed instructions. It was easy to get in contact with the company and specific guest contact. For activities we took advantage of the lake access and rented a boat from Alexandria Jet Ski and Boat Rental. They dropped off the boat at a landing just 2 minutes away. We also enjoyed being close to Carlos Creek Winery, Zorbaz, and the little downtown shopping area. Definitely recommend this place!

Wonderful Lake House
Our family had a great time staying in this beautiful lake house. There was plenty of space for everyone. We enjoyed boating, swimming and fishing in the lake. Thanks to the newly installed handrails on the stairs leading to the lake, everyone could safely make it down to the lake, especially for the young children. We were pleasantly surprised to find two kayaks and paddleboards in the garage for us to use. This house is conveniently located near some beautiful beaches, restaurants and wineries. We will love to return one day. Thanks!

This property is so beautiful, modern and well appointed! Once you stay here, you will be spoiled, as it sets a high bar for vacation rentals! There was so much room for our grandkids to play and spread out! It’s a bit of a trek down the steps to the water, but a good workout to burn off vacation calories!😊 Thanks so much!!!
