We just loved it!

Since I booked, Mary was very kind and helpful. We really felt welcome to the cottage and the neighborhood. Also, she made us feel very special leaving a card and some goodies because of our 14th Anniversary. It was very clean and organized and it was really above our expectations. We are planning to come back soon and to bring more members of our family.

Family Labor Day Weekend

What a cute cottage this is. It was very clean and comfortable. The beds are comfy and the living room was cozy. It has all the necessary items you could need, including toothbrushes for those that forget a toothbrush. It is located in a great campground with all the amenities, including a boat ramp. Mary was extremely accommodating and her communication was exceptional. We are already looking for another date to book with her again. We had a fabulous weekend and thoroughly enjoyed the comforts of the cabin after spending our days on the lake.

We enjoyed our stay. The lake is tranquil with beautiful sunset. The cabin is well equipped. It is very quiet community, too. We saw numerous sandhill cranes. The cabinets close to silver springs, salt springs, silver glen springs, and Alexandra springs from 5 to 40min drive. Mary is a great communicator. I strongly recommend this cabin and will be back!

Perfect getaway

I’ve stayed at many Vrbo properties and I’ve always been happy but the was the best host we’ve had. We loved our time at Mary’s cabin! We had everything we needed in the cabin, it was awesome to have a golf cart to get around. We had family and friends who rented other cabins and it was a fun place to be together. Will definitely rent this cabin again

Family stay for reunion

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The home was well decorated & overall well stocked with supplies. No issues or displeasure with the rented accommodations but the surrounding neighbors were difficult. We felt like we were constantly be watched & reported or judged with every move we made. Owners were beyond great & home was great, just wish the neighbors were a little more neighborly….
