This home was more than perfect. Everything was as in the ad perfect location, quiet and beautiful. We will definitely come back and bring our kids and grandchildren. Thanks for such a wonderful place and time.

Absolutely loved this place. The lake was quiet and calm, my kids loved swimming around the dock and riding on the paddle boards with mom and dad. The space was lovely. Primary bedroom upstairs and kids downstairs with a bathroom downstairs as well for easy clean up after the lake. Property managers were lightening fast in responses and accommodating

It seems small, but our family really wanted a place with a working fireplace. I reached out to the host, which is a management company, and specifically asked if the fireplace worked and was assured that it did. When we got there it was very clear it was not usable. We texted some concerns to the phone number the company provided and didn’t receive a response until the morning we checked out asking how our stay was. The counters were dirty, dishes from the cabinets were dirty, and there was still laundry in the dryer from the previous visit. All of which seemed minor except when we reached for more cleaning supplies and propane for the grill that we wanted to use, we never got a response. Other than that, the home is lovely. It’s in a neighborhood and connected to other homes so not a secluded area. Still very quiet. Comfortable bedding. Good layout for our family. Dock access was great.
Lakeside Nest was such a great house for our girls weekend. The communication was excellent; they checked on us several times asking if we needed anything and the one time we did have a question they responded quickly. The house was beautiful and quite large. It was also spotless! The beds were comfortable and the bedding was clean and cozy. The kitchen was fully stocked with all utensils and equipment one could need. The sun room was the perfect spot to watch the sun come up and the private dock was so nice to sit on in the afternoon and have a few beverages. We are already talking about when we can return to Lakeside Nest for another girls weekend!
The property is a recently renovated townhouse on a small no-wake lake. It was a great getaway for our extended family vacation. The property has kayaks, paddleboards, and life vests which were all a nice plus. We would stay again at this location or at another host property.
We had our family reunion with Mom (84 years young), 2 kids and spouses, 6 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. Everyone loved swimming off the dock, using paddle boards, kayaking and fishing. House was beautifully equipped, great open spaces, and felt very relaxing.

Part of the reason we select this property was for the natural wood burning fireplace and fire pit. It does not have a working wood burning fireplace and it does not have a fire pit it has a smelting pot.
