Guest access
During your stay, take advantage of the private boat dock, canoe, and kayaks. Fishing enthusiasts will delight in the abundance of fish that call these waters home.

Whether you're an avid swimmer, enjoy canoeing and kayaking (provided), or simply want to lounge by the water's edge, the private lake access provides endless opportunities for outdoor fun. The floating dock with a ladder provides easy access to the water. (The lake does have stumps, so you need to be extremely cautious of where u are going in the boats). You can also rent boats from Lake fork Boat Rental and they will deliver and pickup at our dock.

There is a private boat ramp in the community, so you can easily launch your own boat. Our boat lift will not be available for your use, but our dock has space to tie off your boats during your stay.

Other things to note
No Parties or Loud Music - This place is perfect to relax and rejuvenate, and enjoy the lake and nature. This is a residential neighborhood, so absolutely no loud music at any time of the day and no noise, especially after 10 pm. Sound carries far and easily, so the neighbors will call the sheriff/police.

Pool is not available and covered from November to April for the off-season. Pool is NOT heated.

It's ashamed that a 5 Star is the highest rating. This place was way over the top. Any and everything we needed was available.The place was immaculate. Kitchen was well stocked, the beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms were very clean and well supplied. Irving was a great host and responded to all our questions quickly. I highly recommend this beautiful home. Thanks Irving, for you and your family sharing your Vrbo with us.
