Aimee and Scott were AMAZING during our stay. My family and I were escaping Hurricane Milton and Aimee and Scott went above and beyond accommodating us and our needs. Due to unexpected weather and no fault of their own, lights went out for obvious reasons and they genuinely resolved whatever obstacle came upon us! The property is outstanding. Very clean and organized. Our stay was memorable and we would undoubtedly book this tiny piece of paradise again! ~The Ice’s Ps…It's a shame I can’t upload some pics. The view was spectacular

Such a Gem
Our brief stay……PARADISE! Communication was speedy. The property was as presented in the posting, pics - but MORE. It was warm, welcoming and cozy. Extra touch was leaving a dozen of their free range eggs and a newsletter. The house has just about everything you can need. Very well equipped with kitchen uses, towels galore, indoor and outdoor activities for children and adults. The washer and dryer definitely a bonus to take home clean clothes and to ensure the property was much as it was upon arrival and to leave it clean for the next lucky guests. We’re already discussing our next trip back. Thanks so much Aimee and Scott❣️

Graduation celebration
Lovely property for weekend getaway with friends and family to celebrate UF graduation. The kids loved getting out on the lake with the pedal boat. The chain link portion of yard was perfect for our fur babies who came with us. The in-law suite was perfect for the parents. The house was very well equiped and we appreciated the coffee, filters, snacks, and spices as well as the Brita water filter pitcher

Youth Trip
These kids had so much fun playing in the water. The amount of boats and kayaks that were here were perfect for our little group. They were out on the boats the entire time. The fact that it’s right at the end of the lake where it curves is so wonderful. There is only 1 neighbor to the left and nobody to the right. Lillies surrounding. The home is so fun and the kids enjoyed the layout. My goal was a fun couple of days for the kids to just have fun and be together. We stayed up late to play games provided and watched movies and PLAYED OUTSIDE. This a wonderful little spot that every kid gave 10/10 stars to. I enjoyed myself. The adults enjoyed the spot. We will be back again I’m sure.

The house was perfect. Not to small, just comfortable. It was an older home but the kitchen and baths were updated beautifully. We had a great time fishing in the lake. The kids loved the paddle boards and swimming. We were highly satisfied with our stay and look forward to staying again soon!

Perfect Family Lakehouse
My family loved our stay here! Beds were comfortable and the home was full of fun things to do when it got too hot outside! Puzzles, Jenga, cards and Wii were played! The outdoor spaces were so lovely too. We made many memories around the fire pit.

Family get away
Over all very relaxing and comfortable stay. Had lots of extras. If you want to bring a boat needs be a small light weight vessel. Because of low water table. Got stuck in the mud trying to launch.

Great local getaway for a family reunion
We like to get together once a year, locally. This allows our family to come and go as their work needs require. This is our fifth year doing this at various locations,. But we will be back here, hopefully next year. There is a beach for the littles, fishing for the olders and lots of watercraft. Amiee was a sweetheart in all areas. Couldn't be happier with our host!

Great Graduation Trip
My Daughter requested a Lake House as her Graduation Trip with the Family. The Getaway on Lake Geneva fit the bill. Very relaxing location. HOST WAS QUICK TO RESPOND AND ABOVE AND BEYOND ON RECOMMENDATIONS!! Fished from the dock and caught bass and trout. Local bait shop (recommended by Host) very helpful. Host recommended some local restaurants. Cedar River (Host "get anything stuffed") was excellent with large portions and better seafood than many coastal locations. Orange Blossoms (Host rec also) was PHENOMENAL - extraordinary selection great bloody mary's. Dogs loved the yard and had a great time as well. WE WILL BE BACK!!!!

This was a great place for my family of four and in-laws to stay on our trip to Florida. The house was quaint and well laid out for our group. The house was on a beautiful lake and had a well maintained beach and all the amenities that we needed. Would highly recommend!

Great Place for a weekend stay
We were in town for a wedding for the weekend. We had a group of 10 of us that met there. The house had plenty of room for us to stay. The back room was great for us to be able to hang out as a large group. The house is equipped with anything that you would need. The hosts contacted us prior to arriving to give us instructions and make sure we were content. The house has a beautiful lake view and access with two docks. We took the boats out for a few hours of fun on the water. This would be a great place to stay for any events in the close area. It also has easy access to Gainesville if you are visiting UF. My only caution is that the turn into the property is difficult to see. The owner gave great instructions on the email for it, so make sure you read their email before arriving.

Family Thanksgiving gathering
Our family stayed at the lake house over the Thanksgiving holiday and it was perfect for us. Each of our daughters had their own room and with 3 bathrooms, there was plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen was spacious and allowed room for all of our Thanksgiving prep work. We loved spending time in the sunroom enjoying the lake view. We chose the location to also attend the football game in Gainesville and it was perfect.

A great getaway !
We had an amazing time at the property from beginning to end. The home is blessed with a large yard and also a lot of lake frontage for all of your activities. The green house is fully stocked with floats, fishing poles, and life jackets, and yard games for your enjoyment. My 3 year old loved building sand castles down at the sandy beach while we floated in the water and our lab puppy swam around. We felt right at home, whether we were watching a movie in the living room, or hanging out in the Florida room while our children played with toys that were provided and our puppy played in the spacious yard. Be sure to wake up early to be on the water so that you catch the gorgeous sunrise. My only regret is that we did not book a longer stay!
