Great location for our family vacation. We brought our boat and SUP boards , my fishing kayak and had a wonderful time lauching from this great dock and exploring the lake. It's a beautiful location with a fabulous long range view.. We also had fun paddling out to Goat Island too!!Leisr Stays was very responsive to our needs during our stay.

Beautiful place with a beautiful view!!! Would recommend for anyone looking to visit Lake James. The only criticism I have is that the driveway is somewhat narrow with brick walls on the side and was difficult to pull in or out with my truck.

Beautiful view with a relaxing long weekend

It was very clean well stocked with everything you would need, towels for lake and bath, soap, shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels and more. We enjoyed our stay and the wonderful view. I would only suggest that there would be at least 4 chairs around fire pits and under deck Infront of lake.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was as advertised and the kitchen was well appointed for our needs. Comfortable bedding and plenty of towels, toilet paper, soap, shampoo, etc. Dock access was easy for our elderly family members so they could enjoy boat activities. Check out procedure was simple and straightforward. Host was highly communicative throughout the stay!

Having great communication with the host was a great experience. Any questions or concerns we had were answered promptly. Accommodations were as described in listing. Only recommendation we would offer would be to have an exterminator take care of the spiders and cobwebs before guests arrive. Bottom line, it was a beautiful week and stay. Look forward to coming back.

We had a great week at Lake James, which is an absolutely beautiful, quiet lake with plenty of undeveloped shoreline. The home’s location is excellent—close to the water with minimal stairs, unlike many lake homes. The bedrooms were comfortable, especially the primary bed, and we loved spending time with our family here.Unfortunately, the home itself had several maintenance and management issues that affected our stay. The upstairs queen bedroom does not have an attached bathroom (something the listing could make clearer), and the bathroom door was broken upon arrival until repaired on day three. We also had no outdoor trash cans for several days, which led to overflowing trash and significant ant problems. Communication with the property manager started well but became slow, requiring repeated follow-ups.Additional issues included no hot water in the downstairs bathroom, multiple burned-out lights (dock, entry, and inside), upstairs bedrooms that stayed much warmer than downstairs, mold around the refrigerator water dispenser, drain flies, and other insects. The dock was also too small to accommodate our standard-size pontoon rental.The home has great potential because of its location, but it needs more consistent maintenance and better property oversight. With routine inspections and quicker issue resolution, this could easily be a much better rental experience.
