Beauty and nature
My stay at the Somerville Lake House was an enchanting escape into nature's embrace. Nestled in the heart of serene beauty, the property is a haven for those seeking tranquility. The deer roaming freely added a touch of enchantment, creating a magical backdrop to the entire experience. The lake house itself is a testament to refined taste and thoughtful design. The interiors are tastefully decorated, and the amenities are top-notch, ensuring a luxurious yet cozy retreat. The beautiful surroundings, combined with the well-maintained property, create an atmosphere of relaxation that's hard to match. From leisurely strolls along the lake to enjoying the spectacular sunsets, every moment felt like a pause from the hustle of daily life. Whether indoors or outdoors, the Somerville Lake House offers a perfect blend of comfort and natural beauty, making it an ideal destination for anyone seeking a rejuvenating getaway. Highly recommended!

A wonderful country get away.
We stayed at the property while on a girls trip to Round trip. The property is surrounded by lots of wildlife that was fun to watch. Very clean and accommodating, one of the nicest VRBO’s I’ve stayed at.

The house was very modern and clean. The kitchen had new appliances and was spotless. Dishes, cooking pots and pans were provided. Coffee and tea were provided and had two kinds of coffee makers, Kurig and Mr. Coffee. Beds and pillows were great. It was fun to watch all the deer come up to the yard while we had our coffee in the morning and evenings.

Treasure find at Lake Somerville!
We absolutely enjoyed our mini getaway! We were looking to get something close to the lake with a boat ramp since my daughter had a fishing tournament the weekend of our stay. We were only 5 min away to drop the boat in the water! It was perfect! The host was highly communicative and very accommodating. This place had everything; even a cute dog kennel! The farmhouse decor was tastefully done and it was extremely clean with wooden floors. If I had a lake house or beach house I would love to duplicate this cute place! We were elated to find there was a coffee station with a Keurig and next to it was a s’mores kit. Kids loved it! I especially appreciated the spices to cook with (cooking oil, flour, sugar creamer, salt, pepper, etc) and bath toiletries. Everything at this place was very thought out. The only thing we wished it had were blinds in the living room. Tho we love the open space, but also could have used some privacy at night with our family. We had fish bowl vibes. Since we didn’t know the area we felt like everyone could see in. This could be a concern for safety sake. Other than that it was perfect for our little family! We will most definitely be back!

Nice get-away spot
This was a nice get-away spot <5 minutes from Lake Sommerville. The indoor space was nice and cozy with all the kitchen amenities, perfect for what we needed. Quick hikes during the day at the lake and making lunch and dinner in the house. The backyard patio was nice for night campfire. This house is in a little neighborhood with neighbors on all sides. I fully enjoyed my stay, but will say the outdoor space was not as appealing as the pictures (could use some maintenance, like mowing the lawn). Overall perfect for the indoor time that our group wanted and needed.

Perfect Getaway spot
The decor is beautiful, amenities perfect. Very clean and neat. We love sitting on the patio looking at the water, is not lakefront water. Neighborhood was quiet. Love all the yard art. The soaps were lovely. Thank you so much Kristen.

Close to College Station, but not too close
We were in the area to run the BCS marathon. This cute property is near enough to be handy, but rural enough to enjoy the tons of deer that visit in the morning and evening. Cute place!
