Perfect FSU Football Weekend Stay
We had the best time at this Fisherman’s paradise for our long FSU weekend. The cabin was immaculately clean and so cozy. Inside there was a great amount of space for a family of five to enjoy family time, without being on top of each other. The dock was great for fishing. My son caught a fish and it made his weekend. We even saw some impressive wildlife! The cabin was 30 minutes away from the stadium, literally right up the highway, so we got to enjoy the campus and the late night game and then come back to our rustic paradise. Our hosts were so responsive and made everything easy for us. Such a great experience. Highly recommend.

Family Weekend at FSU
This property was a little far to go back and forth from FSU but it was ok. Kim was very responsive so we appreciated that. She adjusted the air conditioning for us at night since it was warm to sleep. The motion lights did not come on in the evening so we had to make sure it was ok to let the lights on at night. Especially since you have to walk around to the back of the house to get in. I think someone just turned them off since the instructions say to turn all lights off upon leaving. Everything is older in the home but we had everything we needed for three nights. I did find it difficult to get ready in the bathroom since there is no space to put toiletries or make-up. We didn't sit on the dock as everything outside could use a good cleaning. We appreciated Kim renting to us since all hotels close to FSU were sold out or extremely outrageous in price.

The dock entices you to go and try your luck.
The lure of the water cannot be denied. It is beautiful to look and just see the lake and all the trees. The neighbors were good in that you didn't know they were there. The house was clean inside which is something I appreciate. The kitchen is well supplied. It was funny in one instance. We would hear big bangs on the back porch. When we looked, there was nothing there! Finally we realized it was the big nuts falling from the trees. Thank you for sharing your home.

House on lake Talquin
We had a good time. The house is comfortable. Our stay over the Christmas holiday was enjoyable even thought the outside temperature was the coldest in 30 years. After we contacted the owner she increased the temperature setting inside the house and we were comfortable. The views of the lake are pretty!

2022 Thanksgiving Dinner & FSU vs. UF Football game - our daughter is a Junior at FSU
The house is nicer than the pictures present. Very clean, lovely lake house decorations. Great kitchen to make Thanksgiving dinner. Enjoyed coffee on back patio looking over beautiful lake. Easy access to boat ramp to get in water and close to house, very nice boat doc. Felt like we were in Georgia, so pretty and relaxing. Would definitely love to go back.

A relaxing and peaceful place to visit!
It was very neat, clean, and spacious. It was an easy walk to the dock, no steps to climb, other than a couple at the back doors of the lake house. The owner was very helpful and responded quickly when we had questions. The appliances were new. The boat lift was easy to use. We had a very peaceful and relaxing trip and hope to revisit the lake house, again.

Beautiful lakeside getaway
Had a wonderful time with best friends from college! Took a long weekend and enjoyed the beautiful scenery, fished from the dock, played cards in the sunroom and generally just had a relaxing getaway! Plenty of space, comfortable furniture and bedding, and great amenities. There is a corner shop less than a minute down the road that has fresh produce, bait, tackle and just about anything else you might need so you rarely need to leave the comfort of the home unless you’re looking to check out any other places in and around Tallahassee which is only a short 25 minute trip away! Host was friendly and quick to respond to any questions! Hope to stay again in the future!

Nice Lakeside Retreat
Our family of 3 had a great time! Our son loved going fishing each day. The fishing isn't the best, but he did catch a bass. There was a gar swimming around the dock, an alligator, a couple of turtles & a snake that we saw. The corner store has pretty much everything that you might need so that you don't have to drive too far into town. The trip into Tallahassee isn't too bad. We visited the Auto Museum, Mission San Luis & the State Capitol! The hosts are quite responsive, informative and super nice. Thank you for a nice stay!
