Short Getaway
We stayed two nights and this place was perfect for us. Had the weather been warmer we would have taken advantage of the kayaks. We enjoyed watching the birds and squirrels from the private back porch. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed.

Excellent Accomodations
My daughter and grandkids met me there to attend a family celebration. it was only for one night but we regretted not staying longer. It was a fabulous property- very peaceful and a great place for the kids to run around after a long drive. The lake was lovely and the swings were so much fun! The house was beautiful, comfortable and very well kept. We began planning our next trip. We will be back when we visit family in the area. Thank you!!!

Return to Garvin County
When our host stated on the property description that all you need is your food and yourself she was not joking! Our host made my family feel right at home just a dear friend or neighbor would. It is a wonderful place to relax, spend time with family, and really recharge from the day to day dealings of everyday life. Interior open floor plan is excellent for family gatherings and the home was very clean. I was very impressed at the level of detail and attention to cleanliness that was present inside the property and of the exterior ground. Plenty of activities to do around the property and things to do within a short drive as well. We enjoyed the view of the lake, sitting in the shade of the grove trees and the rest of the scenic beauty of the place so much we only turned our television on ONCE during our 3 day stay. We are grateful to our host for providing a wonderful place to stay and being a wonderful host. We would absolutely stay again and recommend this property to everyone.

Weekday get away
I was very impressed with the complete stay. Ms.Carol was an amazing host. If you have questions, she answered them immediately. This was truly relaxing. From the kayaks and boats to the whirlpool and serene scenery. My group and I most definitely would stay here again. Thank you for your kind spirit and your beautiful retreat Ms. Carol. That made the whole experience pleasant.

The property was a quiet get away. The house was beautiful. Very spacious. So many amenities in the house. Dishes, soaps, condiments, grilling items, throw blankets, bathroom items and so much more. Owner came out and introduced herself and made us feel right at home. And kayaks, life jackets, fishing poles and a hot tub. I will be back again.

Rural paradise
The home was better than imagined and was set on a beautiful piece of property with a large pond. There were 3 houses side by side by spaciously placed apart and I never knew or heard anyone else. GREAT little store for getting essentials, like a popsicle at 10PM and a new cap for the morning. I plan to return and rent all three homes for the entire family! Carol was a gracious host--enjoyed the serene atmosphere!

Sweet Peaceful Gem
host Carol is amazing! So friendly, helpful, and understands superb customer satisfaction! This place is the most peaceful place in nature and well maintained! The cabin, Mallard House was stocked with everything. Just bring your personal belongings and food and you are set. Most comfortable bed ever! Decor was well thought out and absolutely beautiful carved wood. The only sad part was leaving. Would recommend this getaway...worth every penny.

Five Stars!!
We enjoyed our stay at this house. The seclusion of this property made it a peaceful place to relax & explore. It was a short drive to downtown Stratford & other bigger cities. We tend to overpack for trips but this house was stocked with everything we needed. It was also very clean & spacious. Carol, the property host, was welcoming & easy to communicate with.

Amazing!!!
My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful weekend getaway at this exceptional property. We were able to kayak, fish, take walks, and simply enjoy the quiet serenity of this beautiful farm. Carol is a phenomenal host and has thought of every possible solution for all guests’ needs. I even did some shopping at the on-site Little Wren Shop! Sadie and Carley, the owners’ fur babies, were icing on the cake. This weekend was exactly what we needed to decompress from busy lives in the city. My husband is ready to go back this spring and we’re already considering what other family members/friends might enjoy this unique, incredible rental experience!

A scenic retreat!
Carol and the Mallard House were more than we could have asked for! We came to town for a wedding but spent plenty of time enjoying the kayaks, swings and large entertaining spaces. Next time we want to return to just enjoy the property more. Absolutely beautiful, met all needs and we felt right at home.
