Nice old farmhouse

Came down to visit the nearby lakes and we were not dissapointed. Location is great but house needs some work. All things considered, the house would have been acceptable if it were not filled with terrible odors amd if the beds/linens also did not smell. We cut our booked stay 2 days short due to these odors as well as the rainy weather forcast.

Pleasant Cozy Farmhouse

Very cozy farmhouse on country land. If your family can handle no wifi or no cable then this is a great place. Well stocked kitchen, linens and blankets with boardgames.One tv in the living room which brings the family together, we loved that part, along with the quite coziness. You are next to a farm so wild life is all around, we had company on some crickets chirping, cows in the pasture and a nice creek setting close by. A night of pitching Cornhole whick hoist provided along with the grill, it was a overall pleasant stay. Will be again, polite host, pleasant stay.

Perfectly Adorable

My family and I needed a little get away from the world and this was the ticket. No WiFi which was exactly what I wanted so my family would disconnect from the world and just have some "us" time. Brenda and Earnest were always just a message away of we needed them, which was great. For sure gonna come out and stay again for some reconnect time with the family.

Southern Hospitality at its finest.

Peaceful, beautiful location. Easy to find, and we’ll maintained. Earl and Brenda were very courteous to us, even stopping by to visit and offer any extra accommodations we thought we may need (we couldn’t of asked for more to begin with). The house is clean and suitable for all ages, offering scenery and plenty of room for outdoor recreation and private inside sleeping space. The creek access is hard to justify in pictures, it is outstanding! I have no need to search for my next VRBO in this area, I’ll return to Earl and Brenda’s property without question. Thank you folks, we look forward to seeing you next time.
