10/10 would stay here again. Serene location with a small lake on the property with tons of fish. Owners even provided rowboat and life jackets. We also saw deer, frogs and a wild turkey. Comfy beds and well stocked kitchen with everything we needed.

Our stay was delightful, the house is a gem in the woods.There were so many birds in the morning along with the turkey and deer. We walked the property and it all was so peaceful and serene. The house was very nice and everything in it. Highly recommended for some quality sound with nature, rest and renewal. Thank you

Our stay was comfortable and just what we needed. The property is truly the highlight of the rental. It is quiet and private. That makes it very relaxing. The beds are comfortable. The home was clean and tidy. I only have one aspect of the property that was disappointing. There are no tables, table lamps or throws available in the living room. Those items aren’t needed but would make spending time in the living room more comfortable. Other than that, all is as described and made for a pleasant stay.

We As a family have stayed at several vrbo. I can say this ome was on the top of our list as far as being equiped with everything you need! Linens, bedding, cooking supplies of all sorts, cleaning supplies. The Host was very quick to reply and answer any questions we had. You can tell they are in the process of continually improving on the property. The acces was great! We pulled a 20'pontoon in and had no problem turning around in the drive. And not to mention, having the availabilty of a outbuilding was fantastic for us to store our fishing poles and gear in the evening! Not to mention the wildlife was great! If your looking for a relaxing place in this area. This is your spot!!

Megan was great! When the weather was expected to be bad, she sent a message checking to see if we needed anything. I loved that we had full access to the location without the worry of disturbing others, or being disturbed. The property was beautiful and peaceful. Just what I needed. Cannot wait to book this location again maybe in the summer so that we can enjoy the outside.

My husband, son (5yrs with developmental differences and lots of energy), and I enjoyed our stay over 4th of July weekend. The home was welcoming, homey, clean, and tastefully decorated. The upper level felt open and airy with a great room layout of the living room, dining area, and kitchen. Both upstairs rooms had queen beds that were very comfy and soft. We appreciated sleeping well during our 3 night stay.I was impressed with the water pressure in the upstairs bathroom (we didn't use the downstairs shower) and the continuous hot water. We were provided plenty of oversized towels and additional basic toiletries. We had access to an updated kitchen with all of the supplies needed for cooking.We had plenty of space for the three of us and definitely had room for a few more.There was great wifi reception and a large TV with Roku in the living room. We enjoyed our evenings cuddling up on the leather sofa watching TV before bed.The biggest gem at this property is the lake and surrounding nature. It is truly an escape into solitude but still only a 20 minute drive to many delicious restaurants and convenience stores. The screened in porch directly off the kitchen was my favorite spot in the mornings and at twilight. The shaded dock was second. The hostess kindly allowed us to park in the large clean out building.The hostess checked in several times before and during the stay. She was quick and thorough with her responses to my questions. We definitely plan to return!

We booked this house to stay in for our fishing trip near St. Louis and thoroughly enjoyed our time here! I loved being able to drink my coffee on the porch while taking in the peaceful atmosphere. We fished the pond and had a blast catching a variety of fish. A great location with lots to do in the surrounding towns!

I had a wonderful stay at this cabin! It was exactly what our family was looking for—clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed, and it felt like a home away from home. The location was perfect for our weekend, and we really enjoyed being able to relax and unwind after the wedding festivities.

This was a marvelous location close to our family that live nearby. The house was clean and tidy and just perfect for what we needed for the weekend. Plenty of parking for guest and my house were very nice. They even came out in the middle of a rain storm and cut up a tree that fell across the driveway. Their prompt Service allowed our grandkids to get back to their house and in bed in a more timely manner. Thanks to them so much for that. Can’t wait till we get another opportunity to go back.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was great—very clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated for Christmas, which made it feel extra special. The private lake was a highlight for us; fishing kept us entertained and relaxed throughout our stay. Everything was well maintained, and we truly enjoyed our time here. We would absolutely stay again and recommend this home to others.

This was our 2nd time staying here and so looking forward to our 3rd later this year. Nothing beats the peace and quiet this property offers. Megan is a amazing host!! Making sure wife and I had everything we need to enjoy our stay. If your staying in or around this area, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving this home a try. Also stop by the lake and say Hi to Richard the turtle. Haha! " He the large one in the lake "

Our stay here was peaceful and enjoyable. It was easy to get to, off of a quiet road in a rural area. There are multiple porches for sitting outside and enjoying the beauty of the pond and the woods. It was a wonderful place to spend hours watching and listening to a variety of birds. And when you do want to go inside, there are comfortable amenities. We were able to park in the garage, which we were thankful for during a storm. The host was helpful and easy to communicate with. This is a great place to spend some time relaxing.
