Perfect Golf/Fishing Trip

My friends and I enjoyed our stay very much. Everything was as advertised and more. If you're looking for a nice place with plenty of room and privacy this is it. The modern appliances were a big plus including the washer and dryer. We do this once a year and hope to rent the same property next year.

Country Lake

Needed to get away for a mental health break. This is a lovely property near Rend Lake. The house is well maintained and comfortable. We had a nice, peaceful and relaxed time. Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate for some time to visit the lake. My only suggestions, would be to add a digital antenna to get the local channels, we wanted to see local news to follow the weather and see some morning shows that we keep up with.

Quiet little Happy Place

Our family of 3 journeyed from Georgia to spend Thanksgiving in a place we could unplug and refresh. Hunt & Gather Lodge was everything we were looking for, and more! The house was clean, cozy and well kept. The kitchen was well stocked with the equipment/utensils we needed to cook a wonderful Thanksgiving meal. We loved exploring the property as well, such a cool place! We will definitely be back! Thanks Renee!

Cottage in the Woods.

We had intended meeting friend from Missouri for a chilled weekend catch up. Unfortunately they had issues at the last minute and could not make it. Despite that my wife and I had a lovely relaxed weekend just loving the back deck. As birders we were delighted with the Eastern Phoebe who kept us great company. The cottage itself was very neat, clean and cosy. Would recommend it to anyone. The Lake is a couple of minutes walk away, great location. Area is very quiet and loved the sight of wildlife wondering by.

Waverunner

Family of 4 with 2 waverunners & 1 spoiled dog. We love this location on lake with boat ramp 5 minutes from house. 2 teen boys had so much fun outside & they loved the old Monopoly board game in cabinet! The dog loved to big back yard & we could walk dog along gravel road to lake easily. My husband & I found kitchen stocked with everything we needed to cook including knifes that actually cut (this never happens in rentals) & house & bedding were very clean. We will definitely be back!!

This house was so clean and inviting. It was a very comfortable stay. Anytime we email our host it was answered promptly. If we are ever in the area again we will definitely be staying here.
