Perfect Weekend to Memorialize my Husband
Hello, Kelly, Family and Guests! This property is beautiful, and I couldn’t ask for a better way to memorialize my husband! He and I were avid travelers, and I know he would’ve loved this property just as much as our family, friends, and I. We had incredible sunrises all three mornings, epic clouds that painted the sky. Kelly responded within minutes whenever I needed to communicate with her. My mom kept saying “the host thought of everything”. We may be back :) Thank you for a lovely stay, JS

Great place for our family gathering!
It was a great property that had space for our 13 people and felt spacious with the 2 houses in perhaps a double lot with a park next door with the beach. We loved using the kayaks, paddle boards, life jackets, games. It was thoughtfully well stocked in many ways...outdoor activities, kitchen, bath and beach towels, outdoor chairs and shade. The kids loved the play area upstairs in the lake house. We had a fire multiple nights, it was a great place overall!

Excellent property
The cabins are super cute, very clean. The owner has truly thought of everything to make your stay here perfect. The few questions I had during our stay the host replied to immediately. Plenty of room for our familly trip. My siblings and I with our families and mom go every year and this was one of our favorite properties! There is plenty of room for outdoor games and lots of water toys (kayaks, paddle boards, etc). The park next door adds extra beach space to the property and the outdoor shower was a amazing perk for a beach house I would definitely recommend this rental to anyone and we definitely plan on coming back.

Beautiful location/plenty of amenities but had an issue with the undisclosed surveillance.
We would have rated this higher had it not been for the undisclosed video surveillance. At least 3 cameras outside-which are allowed if properly disclosed. But most bothersome is the indoor camera in the Lakehouse (just one-as far as we could find). When we contacted the host about the camera concerns we were told that 1) she didn’t feel the need to notify us since she received an alert that we unplugged it-thus we “already knew about it”, 2) the indoor camera was there since there were contractors & cleaning crew & she wanted to know who came in when she couldn’t be there. However the outdoor camera on that side of the Lakehouse would show that door, 3) when a member of our group reached out & even sent her a link to the VRBO rules, which included exactly how to disclose the outdoor cameras (one example is right in the VRBO listing itself-and it’s not optional, it’s required) the host said that she’d been renting for 3 years and she didn’t know of the rules and that no one ever complained. And again, any indoor cameras are NOT allowed when you have paying guests. When you take on the responsibility of renting you have a responsibility & an obligation to know & properly apply the law. The only reason we didn’t rate this property lower is we all had such a great time and the property was absolutely beautiful. Our guests ranged from ages 15-81 but every one of them felt a bit creeped out to feel like someone was watching their every move-or could have been.

Ideal vacation rental for multiple families
Absolutely LOVED our stay! Would not change a single thing except to have booked it for longer. Communication was quick, thorough and helpful. Both main and guest houses were immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. Owners provided everything we could think of to make it a comfortable beach getaway including towels, sunblock, sand toys, life jackets, chairs, umbrella and even kayaks/paddle boats. With property right on the water and just a few minutes away from downtown Lexington, it is an incredibly convenient location. It is also perfect for multigenerational families as we had my little ones who had a blast in the equipped playroom as well as my mother with mobility/accessibility issues benefit from the main floor bathroom/bedroom setup and easier access to the shore. Kelly had even provided bonus treats for the kids like fruit snacks and a Smores Station, while Brian had even dropped off surprise doughnuts one morning. The view is incredible with stunning sunrise and the night sky is filled with stars on a clear night that we enjoyed by the bonfire. Tons of lawn games and outdoor seating too created a fun, communal atmosphere between guest and main houses. All the neighbors we met were friendly/respectful and our kids even played with other kids at the beach. We are already talking about booking the place again next year because everyone enjoyed their time so much!

2 family vacay
Totally exceeded our expectations! This was the perfect location for our 2 family vacation with 2 fully appointed homes on the property. Each are beautifully decorated with a cozy “cabin on the beach” feel. The hostess thought of everything from TP and paper towels for the week to the “s’mores station” and plenty of firewood and outdoor seating! The view is INCREDIBLE and make sure that you get up for at least one sunrise 🌅

Amazing Trip
The property is just perfect. We spent every minute possible outside enjoying being so close to the lake. You truly thought of everything as far as necessities we may have forgotten. The s’mores bar and the sunscreen in the bathroom, it was all so thoughtful. This was one of our favorite trips we’ve ever taken and we are for sure going to be back. I do have to say though the pictures online don’t do the place justice. We couldn’t believe it when we got there like wow, it just exceeded all of our expectations. Thank you for letting us stay!!!
