My entire family spent 4 awesome days at this property. It was the most relaxing vacation I have ever had. The outdoor scenery is beautiful. We had coffee on the back porch every morning, swam in the pool every afternoon and made S’mores in the fire pit every night. We will be back!!!

This property was amazing, with an amazing view over the lake. Everything was so simple. Brooke is so sweet. One thing we did notice is if you have a taller boat watch the tree limbs. They do need to be cut back some for this purpose. Great stay, will stay again!

Outstanding!
Entire experience was flawless from start to finish. Property manager was extremely accessible and responsive to our questions. We stayed here as a family base for a wedding on the lake a few miles from the house. The photos are precisely accurate. Truly “million dollar views”!! We use VRBO several times each year and this is absolutely one of the best properties we have rented. Not a single negative aspect. Kudos to the owners for beauty and functionality.

TimelyMD Senior Leadership Retreat at Possum Kingdom
Although we did not spend a lot of time at the property other than using for sleeping quarters, the accommodations were wonderful. Our Company CEO hosted a leadership retreat at his lake house less than a mile away from this gorgeous property. We had everything needed for a good night's sleep and preparation for the day. The best part was coffee in the morning on the patio overlooking an awesome view of cliffs/lake. Communications with the Geary's was excellent. Thank you again for allowing us to stay at you beautiful piece of beauty at PK!

We had a wonderful, restful time at this beautiful home. Everything was well-organized, clean, and easy to use and find. The views are incredible! We had such a wonderful time reconnecting with college friends — the kitchen is organized perfectly and everything was updated, decorated so cute, and comfortable. The neighborhood is super peaceful and serene and we loved seeing the deer. It was a wonderful stay. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home.
