Thoughts From Our Guests

Went here for my boyfriend’s 30th birthday. We had a great time. Home was very clean. Hot tub was amazing!! It’s very private and peaceful. My boyfriend and I had a great time. Grill and fire pit was also a plus. The main bedroom had a very comfortable bed. We would 100% return, we’re already talking about coming back. Host was friendly and responsive to all questions I had. 10/10 recommend.

Kaelyn, April 2026

We had so much fun staying here. The only negative is that we should have booked for longer! We didn’t want to leave. We couldn’t get our children out of the pool. The home itself was in immaculate condition when we arrived. Everyone had their own space, we made use of every room. The views of Canyon Lake from the deck were phenomenal. Great location, incredibly close to the lake, made going enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again, even considering making the stay a once a year tradition.

Diana, May 2026

Our group of ladies has a wonderful time. The beds were super comfy. The kitchen was fully stocked. The host was quick to respond when we had a question. We loved playing pickleball and relaxing watching the beautiful sunset. I have already told friends about this wonderful place.
