Family surprise and Memorial
We had some family stuff to do in the area. This house allowed plenty of space for 10 fmmediate family members and allowed family members to stop by for a visit and worked out wonderfully. Beautiful, comfy and great for kids! We have added this to our list possibly for a family summer vacation. Perfect!

Great property!
I absolutely would've given 5 stars for everything but their were some small issues. Number one was one of the comforters had what appeared to be blood on it. I wasn't aware of this until one of my guests told me about it after we had checked out. Other than that the property was very clean! The second issue was the property having "lake access". I understand lake access isn't the same as lakefront and I did put lakefront in my search parameters. I assumed lake access would be a short walk judging by the pictures. That was not the case. The third thing was we were booked for the weekend and the yard guy was pretty much on property all day. I would think it would be smarter to have him there on a weekday and not first thing Saturday morning. Very minor issues. Just leaving a very honest review. I would absolutely book this house again or any from that property management company. They were outstanding. The third

Lake Whitney home
Nice home, plenty of room. The yard was landscaped and was very nice. We found several restaurants nearby that were good. The private cove swimming area was a short drive from the house. Clean and well stocked kitchen area. We played games at the huge dining table. Very enjoyable overall.

Family of 12
We enjoyed a family reunion with our kids and 6 grandchildren, between the ages of 4 - 9. The weather was pretty rainy, so we stayed indoors a lot, but there was plenty to do. The kids played games, watched movies, and our favorite was the foosball table upstairs. We had a family tournament and had a blast! The property was very comfortable and so pretty. We enjoyed our time very much!

This house is awesome!
We had 13 in our party, 2 boats, a trailer, and 2 side by sides and we had plenty of room to park on the property. It’s a very short ride to the new Whitney Ridge marina, (formerly uncle Gus’) where there are RV spots, boat ramp and docks to store your boat in the water. This house is huge! Tons of room and it was spotless! I can’t believe how clean it was! Nice side porch that faces East so nice in the afternoon and evenings! We’ve stayed in a lot of rentals but this was by far the nicest and cleanest we have seen! We are already planning another trip here, we absolutely loved our time here!

We really enjoyed our stay. Kim was a great hostess and made us feel very welcome. Unfortunately we were not able to take advantage of all the fun to be had but It’s a beautiful lake area. We are hoping to come back for a longer stay to able to enjoy the lake. Thanks Kim!

This home was perfect for our Family’s Christmas gathering. Spacious and clean with lots of Christmas decorations and a beautiful Christmas tree. Make sure you have everything you need when you get there, there’s not a lot of shopping in the area. Above all it is a very pleasant place to stay.

Beautiful home
This house is amazing. It had everything we needed. Kitchen was well stocked / wonderfully clean and so much room. We had an awesome time at this property. The added extra of a 2 nd kitchen was great. Yard games was supplied and sitting outside at the beautiful table and chairs on the patio to enjoy them was just the ticket. We had a family reunion of siblings and had plenty of space for all. We appreciate Kim allowing us to stay at her home. We just didn’t have a reunion…. We had a retreat. Would definitely recommend this house for large groups We all agree… we would like to come back again next year.

This space is perfect for a large group! The bunk beds were spacious enough for toddlers to share. The kitchen is TOTALLY equipped if you love to cook! No need to bring any cooking gear from home.
