My husband and two of our kids (both 14) stayed at Owl’s Perch with another couple and their teenage son. The layout was good for our group and the house had almost everything we needed. We all enjoyed the stand up paddle boards and the lake. There is a huge fire pit off to the side of the property, plus a short hiking trail. The house is located in a private community, just a few minutes away from Mentone and DeSoto Falls. Owl’s Perch was clean, comfortable, and well decorated. There are some things I wish had been more clear, however. 1. We knew we would have a shared pier with another property, but really didn’t know just how close the two properties are. They are actually accessible from the same deck. There’s a shared driveway and in order to get to Owl’s Perch, you walk beside and then behind the other property. The people who were staying in the other unit were super friendly, thankfully, but if we’d had an issue with them, the situation wouldn’t have been pleasant. Privacy outside of the units is not something to be expected. For instance, I was grilling hot dogs and chatting with the neighbors as they enjoyed their fire pit. However, it would be perfect for a large family or group of friends willing to rent both units. 2. In order to get from the kitchen/living room to the laundry room or game room, you have to pass through the bedroom with the bunk beds. 3. The bedroom with two queen beds is above the game room and there’s no door. It’s not completely a loft style room, but it is open to all of the sounds from the pool table. Just something to note for sleeping arrangements. Night owls should definitely be put in that room. I would definitely recommend this rental to friends. The rental company was very responsive and helpful.
