Please note that as of April 1, 2022 there will be a fee for guests to bring motored watercraft in to Holly Lake Ranch to use on the private lakes. The fee is $50 and is good for three days for watercraft on Lake Greenbriar or Holly Lake.
The house is absolutely beautiful. We enjoyed our stay so much. We will definitely return to this house again. We didn’t realize there were hiking trails until the last night. We suggest reading your information book at the beginning of your stay. Lol
This was our 4th stay with our two adult children and their spouses. The house is very cozy with an open floor layout in the front and it accommodates 6 adults very comfortably. It’s nice to just relax with a cup of coffee and watch the lake from the large windows inside or the outside deck or dock. The grazing deer were plentiful this year. We also dined at the Red Rooster and Taste of Italy, which are only about 20 minutes from the house. We have never been disappointed, which is why we keep coming back!
Yery nice and secluded
Enjoyed this cabin tucked into the woods, fishing a little from the dock and coffee in the mornings watching the sunrise. We love HLR and this home helped make our stay very peaceful and relaxing.
This was our third time to stay at this lake house, went there to relax and and enjoy nature.. mission accomplished. Bonus got to see some deer on the property and catch some fish off the house dock. Could not ask for a nicer place to stay with all the accommodations and the most wonderful Property Managers Joe and Carolyn.
Great place to stay. Our family enjoyed the nice hidden getaway. Will have this on the list to stay again.
The property was absolutely breath takingl! It was surrounded by trees with a clear view of a beautiful lake. We enjoyed time outdoors with a hike, fishing, and a trip around the lake in the canoe provided. The owner thought of absolutely everything to make the trip easy, even providing life jackets. Nothing beat welcoming the sunrise on that dock. We also enjoyed some of the amenities, such as the pool. Everyone was kind and welcoming. Communication with the property manager was prompt and helpful. It was the perfect reset before the start of the school year and we cannot wait to go back! This will definitely be a new family tradition.
We love the nature experience of fishing, the deer, hiking and all the amenities that come with the area.
4 years in a row and we can’t wait for number 5!! Joe is an amazing host and is very communicative and helpful. Highly recommended!!
Secluded and private. Perfect spot for family holiday.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the cleanliness of the house. We met some people in the neighborhood (playing darts each Monday and Wednesday evening) and their friendliness was amazing! We'll definitely return.
Lovely vacation home Very clean and welcoming. House is stocked well with everything you need.
Incredibly clean and comfortable lodgings in a peaceful and beautiful setting. It was the perfect place to relax for a wonderful weekend away.
Beautiful view, quiet, cozy
The view from this house is remarkable! We woke up to deer in our backyard! This is a beautiful house that is well kept up. The lake is quiet and relaxing. The community amenities are fun as well-swimming, tennis, nature hikes, paddle boats, etc... We absolutely loved our trip!
Family fun with the pools, playgrounds, paddle boats and lakes
Greatest trip ever! Second stay here in 6 months. Full access to Holiday Inn Resort activities 5 minutes away even though property is in gated residential community. Awesome restaurants. If you are looking for total quiet to rest and great owners stay here!!

great place for a summer getaway/vaca! we had a great time!
Such a wonderful experience. Everything you need in a vacation home and more!
Excellent lake vacation! I was in desperate need of unplugging for a few days while allowing my kids to enjoy outdoor fun. This property fit the bill! The house was very spacious, surrounded by trees & water & provided the perfect atmosphere for relaxation AND play! Definitely plan on going back!
We had so much fun canoeing, fishing, swimming, and just relaxing in this neat little hideaway that had everything we needed.
The property was nice, especially the wall of windows on the back with a view of the lake.
Beautiful property loved our stay!
