Beautiful location!
My family and I loved the house and the location. The house was clean and roomy inside and out. There are 3 decks outside overlooking the lake. One has a fire pit and we enjoyed relaxing by it at night. Another deck is covered and it provided shade to sit outside during the daytime. There is a children’s area in the bedroom downstairs which was perfect for my daughter and her family. Communication with the host was easy and he was available to us the entire time we were there.
Can’t wait to return for another stay!

Lovely
We all enjoyed our stay at Lake Bowen. Far enough away from the hustle and bustle of life but close to all the essential bamenities. The decks were amazing and there was plenty of room for us to spread out. The lake was a bit busy on Saturday and Sunday but calmed down completely during the week. It was refreshing and the perfect spot to entertain the kiddos. If i were to do it over again, I would pack our kayaks!

Fabulous all around
The host was fabulous as was the property. I had mentioned I might find a kayak to rent prior to going. When we arrived there was a new kayak down by the docks. The views are amazing. The interior of the house was vey nice. The decks around the house and lower patio was really cool. I highly recommend this property and the host. It’s a great get away that can accommodate a couple people or a large family.

A wonderful stay at the lake!
We truly enjoyed our stay at Chris’s home this past weekend! The views and large deck area is what sold us and it was even better in person! The gas fire pit was perfect for the chilly evenings to hangout by. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed to make a yummy meal for a group and the house was clean and nicely renovated but still had that homey feel. Thank you for sharing your lovely lake front home with us!

Lake house with beautiful views
A country lake house with beautiful views of lake. Autumn provided a bit of leaf changes and the outside decks offer wonderful views. House is nice and clearly has been renovated with care. Rooms are nicely decorated. One bathroom upstairs between two bedrooms and one downstairs.
