About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Cooper Family Lake House

Swing from one of the huge live oak shade trees and enjoy a fresh lake breeze or drop a line in the water off the fishing pier. 2BR/2BA brick lakehouse on over 2 waterfront acres with a covered boat dock/fishing pier with electrical outlets for charging your boat, a paddle boat and a small john boat are also available for use.
We are now truly pet friendly, no deposit required and pets welcome. We have had no issues with pets in our 3 years, so we are not going to be charging pet fees any longer...
Frying all those fish you caught is no problem! We have a fryer available to all renters.
We also have a charcoal/gas pit grill combo available located off the back porch! Octagon picnic table sitting under the huge oak trees.
There is also a wood fire pit near the water that is perfect for weenie roasts and s'mores with the family! All-in-all a perfect weekend or week-long getaway!

Great weekend getaway!
Thr house and property are very nice and well maintained. The addition of the commercial ice machine was a great added bonus! Perfect getaway for the family! We fished and swam but most importantly laughed and made memories. The home felt very secluded and it was in a quiet area. Across thr cove we could see the wildlife playing in the fields. The owner is very responsive! Great experience and we will definitely plan a return trip!
