We had such a wonderful time at the Carruthers residence. It was very peaceful and entertaining. If you have kids this is the perfect house. We enjoyed watching the kids have the time of their life jumping from the deck and playing on the rope swing and riding in the canoe - which is provided by the Carruthers. We are already scheduling our next visit. We felt as if we were in our own home. Can't wait for our next visit.

Our stay here was relaxing and deeply enjoyable for our family and extended friends who came to visit us. The house was clean, well laid-out but it pales in comparison to the shaded back-yard and dock set-up.
The kitchen was well apportioned with all that we needed. There was an extra fridge in the garage that we used to keep plenty of drinks cold for everyone.
A few days it was 100 degrees in the hot texas sun, but you would have never known it sitting in the backyard or on the dock. The backyard is shaded all day long.
Better still, the dock is brilliantly designed. You had a 2nd story to sit-up and see broadly up and down the river. The lower dock was a great launching base for all the kids. Better yet, the dock had a 4'x5' area where the littlest kids could swim safely. The rope swing was absolutely the highlight for the kids. The water was cool and clean. The neighbors were friendly and access to stores (wal-mart is 15 minutes) was great.
It was well worth the money. The family meals were easy to prepare in the kitchen, with plenty of seating. The outside grill was a great advantage for us. We were even able to get wi-fi at the house.
The only thing I would suggest is making the reservation process simpler. Lots of paperwork and mailing things back and forth. If you could automate that on the web, it would be great.
All the best!

| Well I believe I can speak for all of us FemCo girls when I say it was FANTASTIC! We had a wonderful time and the house was absolutely perfect! The great layout of the living/dining/kitchen/patio was exactly what we needed. Of course, we spent most of our time on the patio or on the lower dock just soaking up the view, but the time spent cooking, etc. was made that much better because we could still carry on conversations. The water was warm in the river and we spent Friday morning all tethered together on floaties just catching up. Thank you so much for making it so easy on us and allowing us such a wonderful time in your home. |

| i'm almost afraid to write this because i hope the book isn't too full for our return. this house was wonderful, at a perfect, wide spot on the lake's edge and had been remodeled with guesting in mind. a huge open kitchen, living area with plenty of supplies and gracious hosting. We loved our stay! |

| My family really enjoyed our stay at this Lake Placid retreat. The view is beautiful and the location is very convenient. We rented for 2 separate weeks this summer and will definitely be returning! |

| My sister and I decided to have a family vacation and we stayed at the lake house for a week. We all had so much fun! It was such a wonderful experience and the perfect place for us all of us to bond. We're already planning to do it again next year! |

| My girlfriends and I used this great property to get together and work on our scrapbooks in the middle of the winter season! We loved the house and all it's amenities. The view of the lake was beautiful and the communication with the owners was awesome! We plan to "retreat" here several times a year...from now on! |

| My family loved our stay here. The place is immaculate and furnishings up to date with everything you need. The backyard backing up to the water is a kid's paradise (and mom and dad loved it to)!! We can't wait to get back! |
