Great lakehouse!

We stayed here while working in Woodville for a week and it was the perfect location to kick back and relax and enjoy the scenery after a long day. The house was great, and you can't beat the view on the deck while grilling and relaxing.

Wonderful waterfront house!

We had a great stay at this house. We’ve been coming to Ivanhoe since we were kids, so we were very excited to return and stay ON the lake! Great house, deck and pier! Kayaks and plenty of floats for some relaxing fun in the water.

Thanksgiving Family Getaway

This was a very clean property that delivered everything that was promised. It was a very peaceful, relaxing location and the accommodations were well-appointed and comfortable. We enjoyed fishing off the pier…caught and released quite a few bass. We liked it so much that we’re thinking about coming back this summer.

We just needed a place to stay close to family. However, when we arrived at the property we were disappointed we couldn't stay longer. The house has a great layout and is super inviting.
