We just returned from an unforgettable week at this beautiful home on the lake. The home was clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated — it had everything we needed and more. From morning coffee on the deck with a view of the water to sunset boat rides and evenings by the fire pit, every moment was great.It’s perfectly located right on the lake, making it easy to enjoy kayaking, fishing, boating, and just relaxing by the shore. We had so much fun exploring the area and soaking up the peaceful surroundings.Our host was absolutely wonderful — so welcoming, responsive, and thoughtful. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. You can tell they truly care about the home and their guests.This was more than just a vacation — it was a full-on experience we’ll never forget. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a relaxing and fun getaway. We’ll definitely be back!

Another Fantastic Stay at Crestwood Lodge

This was our second year staying at Crestwood. The property is located in a quiet neighborhood and has everything needed for a memorable stay. The check-in process was easy, and the owners are responsive and clearly concerned about their guests' comfort. The kids enjoyed fishing from the dock and I'm certain all of the neighbors could hear their squeals of delight with every caught fish. To be clear, these are not keepers, but for a 2 and 3-year-old, it made no difference. Eventually, their arms tired of reeling them in. The sandbox was a bonus feature for the little ones. We rented the pontoon, which added to our delight, since there was plenty of space for the entire family. The kitchen is well equipped (with filtered water), and we made use of the downstairs beverage fridge. The house is clean, well-maintained, and quite comfortable.

Best Experience We've Ever Had at a VRBO

We spent a week at this property and enjoyed every second. Here are the highlights: Clean and Comfortable: The house was immaculate, well-equipped, and very comfortable. Loved the kitchen! Entertainment: There were plenty of games and outdoor seating options. We rented the pontoon; great rate for a boat that ran well and the perfect size. Quiet Neighborhood: The area was peaceful and serene. Ideal Location: Despite initial concerns about the inlet location, we found the bay setting to be a huge advantage, as we avoided the typical lake noise. Fantastic Fishing: The fishing experience was outstanding. Exceptional Service: The communication, responsiveness, and accommodations were remarkable. When we had trouble with the pack-and-play portable crib, a replacement was provided almost immediately. And that was just the beginning. Though we don’t consider ourselves high-maintenance guests, we did occasionally need support, and Kirk and Lisa did not disappoint. Overall, our stay exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended!

We had a great time during our week on the LeHommeDieu inlet. The property was very clean and had plenty of everything we needed. Probably the only VRBO we’ve stayed in that had plenty of dishes, glasses, silverware, and towels. The house is really well thought out, with plenty of storage and a convenient entry bench with lots of hooks and room for shoes. The kayaks and fire pit were fun. We had five adults, a child, and a small dog- we’d all love to stay here again!
