Cozy Lodge on Fort Gibson Lake. Pet-Friendly!

The house is lovely. Nice big kitchen, yet it lacked a can opener and most of the pots and pans needed to be cleaned before they could be used. The fireplaces are beautiful, the sun rooms provided privacy and security for the little ones. We ran into some issues while the property manager handed quickly and graciously.

The location is beautiful. The home is gorgeous. It provided the bones of a wonderful weekend getaway. The devil is always in the details. The home wasn't cleaned to a standard I've come to expect of VRBO listings. 1. There were mouse droppings in some of the kitchen drawers (one of the best kitchens I've seen at a vacation home, btw) 2. The grill was unusable. 3. There was mystery liquid dripping from the ceiling. 4. The trail to the lake was overgrown and made up of unsteady stones. 5. The hot tub wasn't sealed properly. 6. There was a large knife at the private waterfront. 7. The main deck was dangerous, with missing and rotting boards. 8. There were wasps nests near multiple entrances (this happens, would be understandable if other issues weren't present). 9. The lower level fridge smelled bad. Ultimately, it felt as if the hosts put less effort than required into maintaining the property, which could be great with a bit of care and attention. Despite this, we had a wonderful time and did our best to leave the place better than we found it. The property is gorgeous and we'd love to spend a weekend in this place again if those issues were accounted for.

The listing is not accurate. There are many safety issues. The cabin is very beautiful. The location is breathtaking. However, it’s not very taken care of or clean. I visit the emergency room upon returning home because of an infection that I received from the hot tub.

Beautiful place.

Nice gathering place for family vacation. Thanks for sharing your home with us.

The house was nice and seemed clean, but everyone in the house was getting bit by bugs in there bed. Babies and kids and adults all woke up with bug bites all over them. They did not look like mosquito bites and we hope we did not bring bed bugs to our home. They need to consider treating the place. Also the ice maker in both the fridge and dedicated ice machine was “broken” and left us with no ice for the weekend. Other than that, you have to walk a quarter mile up a hill to throw away trash. They did let us light fireworks which was awesome.

Cozy cabin near the lake. Lots of wildlife and tranquility. The host is top notch. Great communication. Would highly recommend.

Very quiet place.

1. The house had Roach traps and mouse traps everywhere. Even by the bed in the master bedroom were their mouse traps and roach traps 2. The back door that leads to the backyard locked us out five different times. It was not us, the lock is flawed so that sometimes when it shuts it automatically locks3. There are mouse droppings in the kitchen and under the kitchen sink4. Towels were not available in every restroom5. The toilet in the master bedroom broke during our stay and was not repaired. 6. There Outdoor deck has holes in the wood, which caused some of our family to tripThose are the facts about the house, but the worst fact about our experience, is that the owner keeps his hunting dogs in metal cages in close proximity to the home. These dogs are well fed, however, they are just left there in their cages and the Owner only feeds them once a day. They bark and cry from their terrible situation. It was incredibly cold when we stayed there One night it was 23 and the dogs were left outside in that temperature. The water in their cages was frozen. I did address my concern that the animals were not being in a safe situation, and the owner told me they were absolutely fine. I Pointed out that they were shivering and that it was going to get well below freezing and he said that’s not a big deal. I asked him if I could put blankets in there, wood and metal cages, and he said no . His sweet little beagles were subjected to the most brutal cruelty of Under

We love the location on the lake. The view from the house was incredible. The kitchen was our favorite part of the house. Everyone could congregate and enjoy. The bar set up in the kitchen with a mini icemaker and a wine refrigerator was a brilliant idea. I love that there were two refrigerators. One in the kitchen for food and one in the basement for beverages. We love the view of the lake from the hot tub. The hot tub was big, clean, HOT (which was perfect). Our family built lasting memories.
