Great cabin
My husband and I went to this cabin for a weekend getaway and had a great time! The cabin itself was clean and cool, the bed was very comfortable, and the screened porch was FANTASTIC! Don't go expecting the wifi to do amazing things because you are a bit remote, but you won't miss it with the amazing view.

Moms weekend
Several moms got together to enjoy motherhood and the Mother's day weekend on the lake. The place was absolutely beautiful and we had a blast. Definitely recommend this to everyone that I know. We used the canoes to go out on the lake and it was beautiful. It was nice to have that ability. It was a little cold too get in the water and the rain had stirred up the water before we got there but it still was a breathtaking view every morning. To hear the birds and not have any City noises was very relaxing. Hoping to go back with my family again soon.

Nice and quiet
Location is nice and quiet, peaceful. Cabin is nice and clean. Absolutely bring a 4x4 vehicle or plan on parking on top of the hill and walking down to the cabin. Recommend bringing your own toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher soap, and toiletries.

Awesome place right on the water in the middle of no where
Awesome place to get away from everything. The only thing I would say is it didn’t say anything about how hard it was to get to the property from the road we brought our bay boat to take to lake Martin but we had to leave the boat by the road (it was still inside of the locked gate) because of the steep hills Definitely would recommend bringing a 4 x 4

Great cabin
My husband and I stayed for the weekend and had a great time! The cabin isn't very big but it has pretty much everything you could need. I could have spent almost our entire trip on the screened porch! The wifi will work but just know that since it's a bit remote it isn't top speed by any means but with a view like that who really needs internet? We did end up having a couple of questions and William was quick to respond and very friendly! We will be back!

Beautiful views and Peaceful!
Even though the drive from the property entrance gate to the cabin was a bit scary (narrow road and steep hills) it was worth the drive. Once you get to the cabin you forget everything else, we loved the house, beautiful views and very cozy. It is the perfect place to just get there and never leave, make sure to bring everything you need so you don't have to go to the store or find places to eat. We will definetely come back during better weather so we can enjoy the outdoors a bit more. A 4 wheel drive vehicle is a MUST, not recommended, you HAVE to have one if you want to park by the cabin entrance, otherwise you will leave your vehicle and walk down and back up the steep hill. This should be stated on this site as a MUST. Besides that, it is a beautiful property, beautiful views and peaceful.

Perfect spot to have a great, quiet weekend
The house is ideal for hanging out with friends or family. The beds, chairs, couch, etc were super comfortable. The best part is that massive screened-in porch with the huge TV. A few of us guys hung out there and watched football games Saturday night. It was legitimately perfect for that. The upstairs deck and the patio on the ground level (both facing the lake) are great for watching sunrises and sunsets. We didn't take advantage of the canoes, but I'm sure that's a ton of fun at this location too.The only advice I'd give to anyone staying here is watch out for that steep hill/driveway. They have a sign saying "do not drive down here unless you have 4 Wheel Drive". Well....I ignored that and drove my two-wheel drive car down there. It wasn't pretty. But that's 100% my own fault as they clearly warn you not to do that. Overall, this is an awesome spot with plenty of amenities to make it a wonderful weekend. We're looking forward to making it a repeat stay a couple times a year if possible.

Location and cabin are outstanding. Great design. this place is trimmed, furnished and finished better than most if not all we have stayed at VRBO or otherwise. with a few changes i would love to go back. 1. improved directions, maybe x-miles down yates lake road metal gate on right. 2. description, im pretty sure VRBO lists 4WD recommended but its absolutely necessary. arriving without a capable vehicle is goint to ruin someones trip. perhaps end in tragedy. 3. communication, only rental management company listed, had to call them for entry instructions. their email had different WIFI info than ones in cabin, 4. no window shade in bath with adjacent structure directly uphill. enough said. 5.BBQ pit is a rusted out joke, personally disapointed me. 6. odds and ends. No dishwasher tabs, fan remotes are a joke, crappy cookware, cable reception bad, saw a couple roaches inside. lots of cobwebs. 7. checkout time too late, no way in hell anyone could find this place after dark would be dangerous.

Hidden Gem
This rental home felt like a cozy get-away and a upscale hunting cabin and a tree house all rolled into one. If you want to connect with nature but still have air conditioning, this is your place.The property is surrounded by woods, the floors and ceilings are made of wood. If it's not wood, it's stone. The cabin overlooks a body of water that is so peaceful and calm you'll feel like you're in a zen garden. We took the canoes out several times and my kids loved that the most. The only challenge with this property is the steep driveway. Four-wheel drive would have been useful but not a deal breaker. We had some unforseen problems after a storm. The owner was quick to fix everything. We did not miss a beat. If your dream is to stay in a secluded cabin surrounded by woods on a lake, this is your place.

Nice cabin
The cabin itself was great and the location was perfect. I really only have 3 complaints. 1. On one day of our trip people (I assume the owners) came to take out the pontoon boat which is onsite and that’s fine but my fiancé 5 minutes before had showering in the outside shower that they walked right by to get the boat. A heads up would have been nice especially since you are behind a locked gate with the assumption that you are alone. 2. The grills that are onsite are in poor condition and aren’t really usable. 3. There aren’t mattress protectors on the mattress and there are some serious stains on the mattresses and the pillows. Again, great cabin and great location though.

Close to Seclusion Perfection
This is a well designed and well built lake cabin on a secluded lot that is great for a weekend stay for a few people. The outdoor areas of this house are very well done. My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our anniversary and we found ourselves repeatedly sitting on the side deck that overlooks the lake which provides very relaxing scenery. This house has no neighbors to the left, right, or behind it, and the lake is in front...so being bothered at this location is unlikely. You'll also be able to view many different forms of wildlife. My wife and I had a wild turkey fly on to the property and we had a front row view of it in it's natural habitat. The dock for this house is in great shape. There is lots of space to spread out and a ladder to get into and out of the water easily. Floats are provided, and they're nice. (a big plus). There is also canoes you can use for free and a pontoon boat you can use at an added cost. We opted to not use the pontoon boat this time around, but most likely will use it the next time we rent this cabin. The finishes and furnishings of this house are very new and upscale. 4G internet on your cell phone works ok. The house has wifi (albeit powered by Hughes net which will be pretty slow). This is a house you visit to enjoy the great outdoors and not for it's internet speed. **Areas where this place could improve upon** 4 wheel drive should be mandatory, or the owner should pave the last steep part of the driveway. 4 wheel drive is not mandatory to visit this property, but if you don't have it prepare to park your car far way - up a very steep hill. Note that this will make loading and unloading your vehicle more inconvenient than you were originally expecting. Also, when renting this house you will have no way to secure the residence when departing. This house does not come with a set of keys, and there is no keypad lock on any of the exterior doors. You can lock the house when you're inside of it, but not when leaving to run an errand or to go eat at one of the many recommended restaurants close by. Combine not being able to lock the house with not bringing a 4 wheel drive vehicle and you'll be loading/unloading your valuables into and out of your vehicle up and down a steep hill more frequently than you expected. Other than 4 wheel drive issue and not having the ability to lock the house this place is a great get-away spot that is secluded in nature. My wife and I plan on renting this place again.

Quaint cabin on Yates Lake. The 4x4 requirement is no joke, but worth it. You can park up the hill and walk down, still worth it. Place could use a night stand(s) by the beds, and maybe a wardrobe to hang clothes. Other than that...stellar.

Privacy & Seclusion, An Amazing Lake Home
Great vacation spot, reasonable on property pontoon boat rental is a huge plus. Amazing secluded lake home. All the modern creature comforts, if you desire. Perfect for relaxing & boating on a quiet, peaceful lake and grilling onsite in the evening. Fourwheel Drive is suggested and personally advised, fishing poles a good idea too! If relaxing in comfort while having that off the grid feeling appeals to you, this is it! Comfortable and very private, Owner is a Class Act, & very helpful if in need of assistance. MJ & Kim

Secluded and quiet
Nice little cabin in the woods on the water. Comfortable beds and nice linens. Generally a great place to relax and get away from everything. House is cute and comfortable -- accurate to the listing. Happy to find that there was A/C in August, because we didn't see that explicitly mentioned in the listing. Just a few minor items that prevented a 5-star rating from us: - For how we used the house as a crash pad for a couple days of R&R, we felt that it was a bit overpriced. Others who are more prepared to enjoy water activities (fishing, boating) might get more value. - Outdoor furniture (cushions, drapes) could use a deep cleaning. - Kitchen is pretty small. Not quite enough countertop to do any serious cooking. - Seriously weird situation with all the fans and remotes, only 1-2 of which really seemed to work. - Didn't find life preservers for canoes. - Communication was a bit confusing. We got 1 confirmation email from VRBO and several from "the Evolve Team". The Evolve "check in" information provided a local contact (Jennifer) and info that didn't quite jive with the info in the house (Bill = owner? different wifi, etc.). I'd recommend reconciling all of the information to be more consistent.

This place was so beautiful and secluded! We were glad we had 4wheel drive. So many great places to relax and enjoy the amazing views of the lake! We enjoyed the floating docks and canoes and are looking forward to taking advantage of the fireplace and firepit next time. Very clean and well kept grounds and house. Can't wait to return!
