Great experience
Property was as described and very comfortable for us and our pups. Caught some fish, saw a magnificent sunrise, and the extra bonus was meeting Frank and Linda. They simply made our experience so special from Linda’s surprise homemade treats to Franks contagious laughter. Genuine beautiful people💕. Definitely going back!

Relaxing retreat
From the moment we started talking with Frank and Linda about booking, they were so kind, even wanting to provide a treat for our dog if he was with us. As soon as we walked in the door, the peace and serenity of the place greeted us, along wth homemade goodies (we ate them all over the weekend). The view of the lake was breathtaking. We rested a lot, and kayaked. I would recommend taking a couple of travel hammocks because napping under the pines hearing the water gently moving was so refreshing. Frank has beautiful woodworking for sel but more than that, both he and Linda was so sweet to talk with. We will definitely be back.

Cute little 1 room 1 bath cabin for 2 that’s pet friendly and on the lake. Everything is as clean as can be, neat & orderly. The owners are extremely friendly, and go above and beyond to make sure you’re completely happy and comfortable. They’re very helpful and communicative. When we arrived we were met at the driveway by Frank who offered to help carry things in. He goes over everything with you and makes sure you understand before he leaves. We were also greeted with muffins, cookies, and treats for our dogs all made by Linda. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Thanks again for sharing this cabin with us!! We will definitely be back!

The cabin was perfect for me and my wife. Even though we brought some things with us. The place had everything we needed. The lake was practically in the backyard from the house and had the perfect place to fish from. The hosts were very helpful and we enjoyed talking with them. It’s was very quiet and we will definitely be going back. Thank you so much. Tim and Laura

Most relaxing, serene and enjoyable 3 days ever
This little cabin on the lake in the woods located off some back roads was everything and more that i was looking for. It had everything you needed (besides food) that you would needed for a weekend stay. We showed up on Friday afternoon with our groceries and didn't have to leave until Sunday. They even had the kayaks there so you can spend some time on the lake. Frank and Linda are a hoot and i loved talking to them. Linda will have some homemade treats there waiting on you. I am definitely going to be back.

A little piece of paradise!!
Every thing was PERFECT!!!! Best getaway for 2 adults!!! From Frank's funny personality to Linda's fresh baked goodies, our stay was magnificent!!! Even though our last day was filled with rain from the remnants of Hurricane Beryl, it was real peaceful and relaxing!!! This place has no TV, thus giving us time to talk with and focus on each other!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!

From the moment we arrived we knew we were in for a treat. We give it 5 stars our dogs give it 5 paws. The baked treats were so good. Coffee on the deck each morning started our day off on the right foot. Meet Frank and Linda our hosts have created a magical place to escape to. We will definitely be back again.

This place was amazing. The hosts were the best part. They were very nice and accommodating the whole week we stayed. As a nice extra touch they had cookies and a cake for us on arrival!!! The house was clean and quaint, right on the lake. We had a wonderful time fishing and sitting on the back porch. A definite must if staying on this lake.

Wonderful...country...lake and quiet! Enjoyed our relaxation get-a-way time! Did some fishing but mother nature wasn't to kind with the weather. We didn't get to see one of their famous sunsets.The hosts were awesome. Very attentive to every detail and the above and beyond personal touches made us feel right at home there. We even bought one of Frank's unique one-of-a-kind wood working creations as a souvenier of our trip. Thank you Frank and Linda for a wonderful weekend!

This was our 3rd time to visit Second Wind. Frank and Linda are the sweetest people and make you feel like family. If you want to relax, this is your best bet. The view is the best, anytime of day. If you're ready to get away from it all, slow down and enjoy nature, you won't be disappointed. You never know what kind of goodies Linda is going to bake, but whatever it is, it's delicious!

Everything about this stay was absolutely amazing! Frank and Linda were extremely nice and made us feel very welcomed. Frank provided us with bait to fish with that helped us catch an abundance of catfish. Linda is fantastic at gardening and baking, we had home baked goodies waiting on us at arrival. We highly recommend staying here if you have the chance and we are already planning our next visit.

Amazingly Beautiful and Peaceful!!!
What an amazing time we had here at “Second Wind!” Such a beautiful scenery with beautiful, breathtaking sunsets. We really enjoyed sitting out by the fire-pit with plenty of available wood to burn. The host Frank and Linda was very accommodating in every way. Linda made wonderful treats in which we sure enjoyed. So sweet and very good! Had a great time fishing and kayaking even. The bed and fully remote controlled recliners were very comfortable and so relaxing. Looking forward to coming back another time.
