Quiet, relaxing and peaceful stay
I rented all 3 of this host’s properties for my family’s annual Holiday Vacation. We have a very large family so it’s sometimes difficult to find a place big enough for all of us. The Hawthorne Fish & Fun properties were perfect for us! All 3 properties are in close proximity so it’s perfect for large family functions. This was our second year here. We’ll definitely be back.

Thanksgiving Hideaway
My husband and I had a great trip and stayed on a beautiful little cabin on Lake Toledo Bend. We had a pretty view of an inlet off the main lake. The temperature and weather were comfortable and the cottage was warm and cozy. We did not spend much time in the cottage since we were visiting with friends nearby.

Great Stay!
Overall we really enjoyed our stay - it was a little difficult to determine which was our reservation on the property as they were not numbered.
Upon entrance to the rental we turned on the mini-split air conditioning unit. My significant other is an HVAC technician, so in his usual fashion he immediately checked the filters on the unit. It appeared they had not been cleaned/checked in quite sometime. They were rather dirty and had a collection of dead bugs. This was really the only delta we could find.
Very comfortable bed, otherwise clean and clutter free.
Very much enjoyed the property and reservation. We will most likely re-rent upon our return to the area this fall!

Perfect quaint getaway for couples
The little red house is on a shared lot with a bigger house that has access to a floating dock, canoe, fire pit, and plenty of outdoor seating (including a bench swing). Indoor amenities are all that is needed for a short getaway. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience!

Vrbo had trouble with confirming reservation
Vrbo had trouble with confirming reservation; stayed on phone 40+ minutes with them trying to get it straight; was told they were having software or program updates, took me all day into midnight to get a confirmation email; pretty aggravating.

Mini Vacation
It’s was perfect for the girlfriend and I for the price. The place was very clean and very refreshing when waking through the door. The boat ramp is small got to back in off the main road down to the water it’s off alitttle side road.. (Don’t drive head first down to the boat ramp because then you will have to back out no room to turn around.) It was very convenient to put in and motor over to the floating dock where we stayed and bring boat trailer back to the property. Lightening could be alittle better in the bigger areas just by putting ceiling fan with light fixture would help out alot.. Don’t follow google maps to the property because it will have you going thru someone property mini golf course. The guy that maintains the property stop us and help us out to get to the property. All and all had a great weekend stay. Liens and bedding are provided even thought it’s not mention in the listing.
