The house was beautiful as well as the view. My wife and I spent our 25th wedding anniversary there and we had a great time. We caught a few fish as well.
The Manson was a wonderful place to stay. I needed a Mother's Day getaway and this was the perfect home and location to have it at. The Manson was newly renovated, spacious, clean, and very accommodating. Having the private beach was a great treat. Husband was able to fish and kayak and also we had a private fire pit to enjoy at night. The host were communicative and we plan to return again.
The house was perfect for our family of 4. It was very spacious. The kitchen was fully stocked. It is a very quiet and peaceful location, right on the lake.
Me and my kids really enjoyed our stay being right on the water. Walking distance was such a nice view. The location was perfect because with wasn’t far from where I live. The directions was easy to get to. The home was so beautiful.

Kayaks included in the rental made getting on the lake super easy. It was a beautiful, peaceful trip in a secluded neighborhood. Well stocked with kitchen utensils, towels, etc.
Had a great week at the lake. Really enjoyed the home. Fishing was not the greatest because they were lowering the water level. Very spacious and clean.
Host was very nice and helpful my husband and I planned to go on a fishing trip but it Snowed the night before so the guide canceled and we have a up to a year to use our trip but we found things to do we did go to the seven springs winery very nice place and visit buchanan store
Just as described in their listing, this beautiful home on the lake was a perfect spot for our small family to enjoy a peaceful getaway. We loved the natural surroundings of the lake spot and spent the majority of our stay in the water and enjoying quiet hikes nearby. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy this quiet place. The house had all the amenities described and was very comfortable.
We had a wonderful time at the lake. House was absutely beautiful, and we made so many memories at the lake! Thanks!

A beautiful home with a beautiful view of the lake. Very clean and comfortable. We had an amazing time visiting wineries and Occoneechee State Park all just about 30 minutes from the house. We will definitely book this property again.
