Paradise for real !
Paradise Point is a fabulous property that met all of our needs and more! The house is comfortable and beautiful and is in impeccable shape. The kitchen is loaded with everything that you could possibly need, bedrooms are comfortable and the living and dining area are super for a large group. The water is an easy walk from the house, no crazy stairs or difficult inclines/declines. The property owners responded quickly when questions were asked! We will be back!

Beautiful house and property
First time staying in Double Springs part of the lake. Loved the spot on the lake. We rented a boat from Dunskin Point marina and had no problem finding the house. Close to great cliff jumping spots and rope swing! The house is so open and perfect for a large family. Plenty of seating for dinner inside and out. Plenty of seating for watching a movie. Easy walk to the dock. We all enjoyed the paddle boards and kayaks. I loved that the pantry was well stocked with extras and the coffee bar was such a nice touch. Plenty of coffee selections. The only negative if I really had one was the road to the house. It is long and quite rough. But it won’t stop me from renting this house again. Last point…plenty of parking space and concrete areas for playing corn hole! I do wish there was some seating on the dock.

Quiet Getaway
We had a nice quiet getaway with the family. Lots of room for sleeping and the house was very clean. The kitchen fully stocked with everything you would need. Coffee was a fun addition, we didn’t even need to bring ours, lots of options to choose from. Dock was very nice with two kayaks and two paddle boards to play on, they also had extra floats in the storage bin on porch. This house has everything you would need. We did rent a boat but it was about a 30 minute ride back from the marina to the house, which is not really that far but we would definitely look at another option and maybe a closer marina. There is one not far from the house about 2 to 5 minutes, but not sure if they rent boats but you can fuel up there. House is on a very quiet part of the lake and not super busy which was nice to be able to hang out and swim by the dock, Friday night picked up a little more but still nice to hang out on the dock and swim. The back porch was a nice place eat, lots of room for everyone and we played games out there in the evenings.

The perfect getaway
Everything about our stay was wonderful - from the beautiful house and parklike backyard sloping down to the lake, to all the extra-thoughtful details like S'mores supplies and a nicely stocked coffee bar. We've stayed at many VRBOs over the years, and this was by far our favorite. It was exactly what our family needed for a relaxing getaway. Our group ranged from a 7-year-old to teens, to adults and there was something for everyone to enjoy. Hoping to return again next summer!

Paradise Point
The property was very nice. The access and view of the water was great. The only thing is the road coming to the property is pretty bad. It is narrow dirt road and has a lot of holes in the road. Other than that it was a great place to stay. Would love to go back.
