Very beautiful place on the lake. House was very clean and we had everything we needed. We were not able to take our boat because it has a mechanical issue right now but we still had a great time with family and fishing! Thank you for the opportunity to rent your home!

Great getaway!

Nice lakefront home, good size for our family of four. Very clean and well stocked in a quiet neighborhood. Enjoyed fishing, grilling and time with the family on the large covered deck. Lots of stairs going to the water and the stairs going up to 2 bedrooms were very steep, but not an issue for us. It would’ve been nice to have had working TVs in the bedrooms - mostly for the teenagers! Had a wonderful time overall and definitely recommend!

Great property with great views

Had such a good time at this location. . The house was clean and had all of the necessities. You are close to restaurants and grocery store. The house is up to date and the internet worked great. The views of the lake are amazing. We fished from the dock and caught lots of bluegill and perch. We were a family of 5 and had plenty of room. I would recommend this house to anyone looking to get away and have a good time.

That back porch!

Enjoyed our stay at Castaway Cottage. The back deck was our favorite and we stayed out there alot with all the rain we had. Inside is as described. Stairs to water and dock as described. We had about 9 feet of water off the front of the dock. Water silty and some log debris but we were able to do our water-sports right in front of the house. Only issue was listing states sleeps 8, 7 comfortably but owner contacted us when we had 5 cars in driveway questioning if we had more than 6 guests (we worked this out but if you intend to take more than 6 guests make sure to confirm it with owner first)

Vacation

We have never been to High Rock Lake prior to this stay. We were looking for pet friendly and a place to bring our boat. We had no way to know the weather would be off the week after Memorial Day. The house and location were great. Plan on cooking and eating in unless you want to travel 20 minutes or more for anything other than diner food. It was fine for us since we couldn’t leave our dog alone. We hope to visit again and hope for better weather. The house has the amenities we needed. The host was quick to respond with any questions. The house does have lots of steps to the lake (47); however we navigated with no problems.
