Top Jones Lake Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Athens by IHG

8/10 Good

"Nice clean room. AC to noisy"

Lake Palestine's Best Property for Vacations, Reunions, Events, Get-Aways!!!

10/10 Excellent

"We are repeat visitors as this is absolutely the best house on Lake Palestine. An annual event gathers our blended families for a wonderful vacation. Clean and comfortable. Big enough for our entire group."

Bring your boat! Pet friendly - Lakefront house on Cedar Creek Lake.

8/10 Good

"We definitely enjoyed our stay. The house was large and other than the carpet, it was very clean. I would suggest that the carpet be cleaned. It was dirty in the areas where people walked. I felt the need to wear my shoes 100% of the time. Clearer instructions on how to use the Roku TV in the family room would also have been helpful. We never were able to get a local channel to watch the news. And we are pretty tech savvy people. I would also suggest the instruction binder be updated. The Guest TV directions in the binder were inaccurate. Be sure to follow the directions on your VRBO email. I’m hoping these suggestions make renting your house easier for future individual families. These comments notwithstanding, we enjoyed our stay. Thank you."

Coyote Creek A-Frame Cabin with Firepit, Nature Trail, Games, Outside Activities

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay! The hosts were so friendly and very easy to get a hold of. The property was exactly what I was wanting for a peaceful stay. I like to walk our dogs and the trail out back and quiet county road in the front were perfect for that. I really liked the back porch area and the fire pit. I cooked a little while we were there and the kitchen was well stocked. We liked the DVD collection and the games, and we enjoyed playing Apples to Apples together. The beds were comfortable too! Everything was great, I would definitely stay here again!"

Paradise on Palestine

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed our stay in Paradise! We were fortunate to stay over July 4th holidays and the fireworks over the lake were one of the most spectacular ones I have seen.Host was very responsive to any issues we had . House was very clean and well stocked.Did a lot of porch setting , as the view of the lake was incredible! Loved all the games there to play. Fished & swam from dock . Unfortunately the fish weren’t bitting & the boat wouldn’t run but we still had a wonderful stay . Thanks to the host for all their help! Would definitely stay again."
