We enjoyed our stay in Crane Hill.
We enjoyed our stay in Cane Hill although the water was low and we were unable to utilize the boat launch which was rather disappointing. It was exactly why we chose this particular location. For future renters, don't expect to launch a boat on the property in September.

Lovely cabin on the lake
This cabin is adorable. I loved the factory- burned wood in the walls. We had 2 adults and two kids. One kid stayed in the loft and one slept on the living room futon. I enjoyed reading my Bible on the porch in the mornings. Thx for the fan. I think every room had a fan which was lovely. We wished there was a little more privacy in the downstairs bedroom. Mizuki had cold waters waiting for us in the fridge. That was a very nice touch. Overall lovely stay.

Great weekend
Check in was a breeze. The house was spotless which is very important to me. House is right beside the bridge so there is traffic noise when outside. The floating dock was very nice as were the kayaks ( 1st time for us to do that). Kitchen was well stocked as was the bathroom. The spiral staircase is a bit tight for adults but we made it just fine. Overall a great stay!

Short stay.
This place was just as listed. Beautiful inside and out. This cabin has everything you need to enjoy your stay even down to seasoning! There are two neighborhood dogs that do roam around, but aren’t aggressive. Everything worked properly and we had no issues. The thermostat on the grill didn’t work, other than that it was great! We will be back for sure!!!

It was a great experience! I brought my grandkids . The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars all the way is because some people may not be comfortable with the neighborhood dog coming up . I love animals though and he is very friendly even to small kids .

Cozy Creek Cabin
What a wonderful spring break we had here! The cabin was clean, well-stocked, and very well cared for. The kayaks and large outdoor space along the creek were a real treat, as was the fire pit where we roasted marshmallows at night. Easy to find and close to Smith Lake, our whole crew had a wonderful little vacation! The host is incredibly responsive and made the entire experience a breeze!

Perfect little getaway
This little cabin was everything my wife, 6 yr old son and I were looking for. The hosts delivered firewood and were very accommodating with everything. My son and I were looking to fish and roast hot dogs and marshmallows over the fire and my wife was looking to get away and kick back and enjoy the stay. We all were able to do just that. The hosts even drove back by and brought my son and I a few lures I didn’t have in my box specific to what we wanted to catch. He didn’t have to do this but very much appreciated!! Although we didn’t have very much luck this time only being there a couple nights plenty of area to fish though. Might try and bring the boat next time since there is what I would say was a private launch right beside it on the property. There was a gate so not going to have a problem with public launch right next to you. We tried a place down the road “arrowhead bar and grill”. Glad we did. Kid friendly and good food. Cabin was very neat inside spiral staircase to loft upstairs. Our son pretty much claimed that as his area as soon as we walked in. We also enjoyed the dog that came to visit with us while we sat out by the fire. Very sweet and has been around plenty of people. I wasn’t nervous one bit with the family. Son said I think he’s sad we are leaving lol😂. We will definitely be coming back again boat or not. We will be looking forward to more time on our next visit.
