Great house and location!

Overall I would rate our stay a 10/10. We enjoyed everything about the house and the location. We did not have any issues our entire stay. The house is very cozy and has a great porch! Also, the boat launch is just down the road and it is a very nice launch; not crowded at all even during the holiday weekend. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful family vacation

A perfect location for our family of 6 adults and 5 children. The house was very comfortable with its older charm and wonderful large screened in porch. The large grounds area, pier and boat dock made it very easy to accommodate our large family. Great swimming, boat riding and beautiful water views made it a wonderful location for us. We hope to return again.

Didn’t want to leave!

Lake Martin has been our family vacation every year for the past 7 years. We have always stayed at the campground, but decided this year to get a house. And it did not disappoint! Other than a few storms that blew through, everything was perfect. We loved it so much we didn’t want to leave. Cathy was a great host! We will most definitely be booking again!

Family

The online list was accurate in sleeps 10, but keep in mind these are 10 single beds in three bedrooms. Although it sleeps10, the rest of the house is quite small. It is completely adequate for a small family of four or five, but to have a family if 10 would be extremely cramped. a large family of10 stay

Classic Lake Martin

We had a wonderful experience at this obviously well-loved and curated family home. The setting is spectacular. The home is well appointed with everything we needed for a long weekend getaway that included a little commute to Auburn for parent's weekend. The house is authentic and quite comfortable. We plan to return!

Best Trip Ever

The house is in a wonderful location! The end of the point has the most breathtaking sunsets. We enjoyed the use of the boat slip, as the boat ramp is just down the street. The fishing was amazing. We agree that this was the best trip we have taken in 22 years - and we have been all over the world! The house was clean and well supplied.

The view is worth booking alone. There is nothing that can be changed to make the view better, it is perfect. The home has updated bathrooms which were extremely appreciated. Very easy to contact owners when needed. Would definitely recommend for a family get - a - way!

Definitely Book again

This was a great location and house for my family. Love the proximity to the water (no stairs to get down to the lake). Loved the screen-in porch to enjoy the sunset. Loved the amenities they had for us to use including kayak, cornhole, etc. Overall a great place. *Only initial concern is that we had had to ask them to turn the A/C down as their instructions had it too high in July. Once we talked to them, we were able to get it at a comfortable level. Again, I definitely will reserve again.
