We had a wonderful stay and were so thankful to be able to stay another year. It's a great location for access to the Mark Twain Lake. Also a wonderful place to gather and relax, even when rain changes your plans.

Great getaway spot in the middle of farm land.

The place was extremely comfortable an cozy for my family of 9. The yard was fantastic. For the first time we let our dog loose, and she loved running around and greeting the neighboring cows in the morning. The kitchen had plenty of space. We used both the gas and charcoal grills. It was just the place we needed to bond and share together as a family. The place was close to the lake so getting there was a breeze. For anyone looking for a peaceful family getaway, this is the place for you!

Great home and vacation!

We had a wonderful time at the Holder House. The home was very clean and very spacious. The kitchen was stocked with every appliance you could possibly need, actually the home was stock with about everything we needed for our vacation. We loved how it was secluded from everything. The peace and quite was just want we needed. We didn't have to travel to far to the boat ramps. We loved the garage. Big enough for our bass boat and the truck. Also the garage was set up with a sitting room and a arcade Pac-Man game! We had so much fun playing our own little Pac-Man tournament. Thank you Beth and Robert for a wonderful place that we could unwind and relax on our vacation!

Beautiful property

The GPS took us to the wrong house but the neighbor gave us directions with no guff. House was perfect and love the decor! Clean and great amenities. Not a fan of fabuloso cleaning products but not too overwhelming. Love having plenty of clean towels and linens. Lots of cooking utensils and supplies. Clean and comfortable furniture. Large accessible garage. Just a beautiful home!

Quiet and secluded

This is a great property if you are looking for a quiet private place to spend time with your family. The owners were upfront with any issues we might run into during our stay, in regards to the house. The doors don’t latch well and there are a lot of open outlets so if you have wondering toddlers keep this in mind. Over all it was a very nice stay.
