    Spent 1 night at the Gator Den. Nicely decorated, spacious and enough beds for all 5 of us. Our kids enjoyed having access to kayaks and I loved the screened in front porch. Beautiful area, peaceful and quiet. Very relaxing. Being city folk, there were a few too many bugs indoors for our liking, but totally understandable. We'd love to stay there again.

    The Gator Den was such a blast! Absolutely a beautiful property, so many perks and amenities. Easy to park, walking distance to Tuckers boat launch, and the owners are incredibly helpful. 5 21 year old women were able to have fun comfortably and celebrate our friend getting married. The only suggestion I could even add is a curtain to cover the sliding glass door bc it is very easy to see in at night. Other than that, it’s a perfect place to stay!

    it wasn’t exactly what we were expecting. We did have roaches and ants. The landlord dropped off some bait but it didn’t really change anything. The sofa quit working we tried everything and couldn’t get it to work but in messing with it there was cereal and something spilled under the couch. Cereal in the couch. There was a poor dog that was hungry and hung out we finally fed her she was starving we couldn’t get anyone to come get her.

    The owner was a pleasure to work with. She made our trip a breeze to stay with and help set up our trip for success. The house was very nice and clean. The proximity to the boat ramp made getting on and off the water in a snap. If you like to fish this is the place to stay. Our group had a great time.

    The cabin is as advertised. It was very clean. Had plenty of room for everyone. The front screened in porch is a great for relaxing and enjoying the hot tub. You can see the lake from the front porch. The mattresses are new. They are a little too firm for my preferences, but that’s a personal preference and nothing against the host or house. WiFi and data aren’t great, but then why do you need internet when you’re at the lake.

    This was perfect for a girls weekend away. We were safe and very secluded. I wish we could have seen the water, but the boat tour was close and great.
