About this house rental

Your own private and natural scenery with mature shady trees and picturesque waters.

We enjoyed our stay on the lake. Had fun with all the lake “toys” provided. The view was great. The home was bright, cheery and comfortable. We would stay again.
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2026
This place was great for our family of 4! By all means there is plenty of room for the 10 it says it accommodates. The fire pit was nice to use! There are five different water vessels to use, we opted out of using them because we walked the dunes on the way to our destination lol! The all seasons deck that views the lake is amazing! Morning coffee is a must! Fishing was not successful for us, but the neighbor let our babies check out some fish he has by his dock! What a wonderful person he was, we regret not introducing ourselves sooner. We enjoyed a little park called Lakeview it was about 13 mins away! There was an awesome Airplane museum called Air Zoo…. What an experience, great for kids and adults! We also went to One Well Brewery, great food, awesome beer, exceptional staff, and games to play! We enjoyed the Binder Zoo and then stopped at Station 66 on the way back, get their BLT if you are there during the summer, Corn Dogs were a hit, and ice cream is a must, don’t forget some donuts or pies…. If I had to describe Station 66 it would be impossible to say enough about the place! Bring essentials with you, plenty of pillows and towels, but bring laundry soap if you expect to do laundry, dishwasher soap, and seasonings! There is a Dollar general close and you can get to Meijer and Target relatively quickly!

Very clean! Comfortable beds! Excellent Wi-Fi! Two people in our group worked remotely with no issues! Shower was warm and had great water pressure! Beautiful view of quiet and peaceful lake! Great for swimming, kayaking, and fishing! Charming town of Vicksburg is only 10 minutes away with restaurants, ice cream shop, and a large grocery store. The host was quick to respond! We will definitely stay here again!
