Annual family trip to lake egypt
Had to book this house last minute due to other rental being sold. House was well equipped and fit our families well. Kids loved the Pac-Man game and kayaks. The lake is very shallow outside of dock, which was the only down side that we couldn’t swim off dock. Not sure we would book again, but it definitely worked great with what little time we had to find something.

Nice Getaway
The house was very clean, well-maintained, and had modern updates. Bedrooms, bathrooms/showers, kitchen, living areas, etc. were all comfortable and better than several others that we've stayed at before. I was disappointed that there was no electric at the dock for my boat. Also we were never sent the door access code and I had to call the owner/management twice since they weren't answering my messages thru the vrbo app, but they were really nice and apologetic when I called. Overall the stay was great and everyone enjoyed this property very much.

Wonderful Vacation Home
We loved our stay at LOE! The home had many thoughtful conveniences, as well as fun extras: hot tub, kayaks and pontoon rental available. Our host was very accommodating and quick to respond. The layout is great for two groups to stay and enjoy privacy. Everything very quality, comfortable, updated and tasteful. Fully equipped kitchen and three outdoor sitting areas. Level back yard w/a firepit in quiet cove with water view on both sides. Nice neighborhood. Highly recommend for your next lake stay :)

So much fun on Lake of Egypt
Nestled in a quiet cove, this house is perfect for a family gathering. We have 4 adults and 2 kids that used the whole house. Kitchen well stocked with all appliances and utensils needed. Layout was great with plenty of storage/closets for our things. Everyone raved on how comfortable the sectional couch was in the living room and on a rainy afternoon we all sat on it reading trivia questions from the game provided. We rented the pontoon boat which I highly recommend. Outdoor furniture was comfortable too and we all took a quick dip in the hot tub after a day of hiking and/or boating. Would definitely stay here again. Brought back some great memories.

Great Lake stay!
This house is equipped with everything you need for a stress free stay at the lake! Plenty of soap, trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper and dish soap! Almost any kitchen gadget or utensil needed was also there! We had a great stay and really enjoyed our long weekend! Host was super responsive to all our messages and questions!

Family stay on memorial day weekend
The property doesn't show that well as you pull into the driveway but it was clean and nice where it really counts. The inside is well appointed and beds were reasonably comfortable. Had everything we needed for 3 nights with 6 adults and 2 children ages 10 and 13. It was just big enough with four of us tucked into the room with the bunk beds. We had a great time and I would not hesitate to stay here if we decide to do another lake of egypt trip. Communication with the owner was excellent. He even called to check on us after some wicked storms passed through. Only complaint was that previous occupants did not properly store some of the outdoor furniture cushions which were dirty enough that we did not want to use them. There is a rental pontoon available. We did not use the pontoon so can't say much about that. The property sits near the end of a where the water is about 3-4 feet deep. There is a one slip dock on the property.

Reconnected!
I haven’t been to this area of the country in many years. Sadly I was there for a memorial service but it also served as a wonderful reunion with relatives I hadn’t seen in many years. Everything about this property made for a special reunion and place to gather. I couldn’t have asked for more! I would recommend this property to other families looking for a special getaway or relaxing retreat, and I plan to return!

Perfect
We had a great day at this property. The pictures do not do the house justice. Everything was remodeled fresh and new. Entire house had been repainted and decorated very tastefully. We felt right at home house included everything we needed and then some. The best thing about the house was the location and the fact that it had two separate living quarters if you brought family upstairs and down. Very nice neighbors and the neighbor to the north of the house even delivers firewood for you at a cheap rate. We had a great time, we will definitely be back

Great Stay!
This is one of the few times I’ve checked in to my stay and the actual home was better than the pictures! Great place, plenty of room, quiet neighborhood, right in the water, plenty of necessities (towels, soap, toilet paper, coffee filters). I highly recommend this stay.

Easy to work with
This place was paid for by my company, for the purpose of housing a homeowner near my place of work to accommodate them for a month or so while we worked near their home. The people who stayed there had no issues that I know of, and I hope they were "good" guests! It looks like it would be great in the summer too. Thanks again for working with us on short notice!
