Crazy but Wonderful Vacation
Loved this property! We had some absolutely crazy weather the entire 7 days we stayed here. From tons of rain to storms to hail (3 times on 3 different days) to strong winds and lightning so needless to say, we spent a lot of time indoors. Kathy was amazing, always checking on us and informing us of damaging weather coming in and tending to our needs if we had any. She really took care of us. The dock was amazing for those times we couldn't get on the water. Swimming, fishing, laying and jumping off the top deck was a big part of our stay due to the weather so having that nice dock was a game changer here. The house was spacious enough for 12 of us which was great. I made some easy suggestions to the house manager Kathy on a few possible additions/improvements that would make this house even more perfect for a large group as we ran into a few snags being inside a lot more than usual but of course Ms. Kathy appreciates feedback and invites suggestions from her guests to make each and every stay as wonderful as possible. Great memories were made! We will be back next year :)

Perfect Family getaway
This home was clean and comfortable for our family vacation. The only issue we had was quickly taken care of by the kind property mgr who is quick to respond to any questions! We don't usually take our dogs on vacation, but the fenced in back yard made it easy for us! The Master suite was especially wonderful with comfy King bed and lovely en suite bathroom. The house is on a great part of the lake and with stairway for easy in/out of the water, and upper deck for stargazing. Our kids enjoyed the gameroom/bunk room and also the tv room with a really comfy sofa that was large enough for our whole family watch a movie together. Thank you!!

Good Overall!
We enjoyed this place overall! The host could improve by providing shower soaps (there was none) and by providing some basic tupperware and/or Seran Wrap / Foil in the kitchen. We also had a little problem getting the fridge to cool everything down. There is an ice maker in the kitchen that was super helpful so we really thought that was a good addition. Clean house overall and spacious. The dock is nice and the yard provides areas for activities also!

Very nice place!
We would recommend Southern Star and owner, Kathy to anyone visiting Mabank, Tx ! The neighborhood was very peaceful and quiet. The house had many nice touches that made us all feel at home. We did not spend too much time at the actual house as we were there for a family wedding but we can see why you would come there to relax as a group.
