Jun 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing house We had a wonderful time at Dogwood Hollow. The house and property are beautiful. The house has everything you need for a wonderful getaway- games, baby furniture, kayaks, fishing rods, a lending library, every kitchen gadget that you will need and a wonderful children’s loft with a teepee! The house is decorated so nicely. We loved finding the little mouse house pictures. The furniture is beautiful and extremely comfortable. The neighborhood and the lake are quiet and peaceful. We would love to bring our family back for another vacation in the future. ##### Heather M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Abby W. Aug 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Check-in was a breeze. House was gorgeous. Bit of a steep hike from the house to the lake. Few kinks with the stay: main floor half-bath door was off track and wouldn’t close; few of the fitted sheets, while laundered, had stains in the “lower” regions; landscapers showed up bright and early on our first morning there and we had no heads up that they were coming. Also, not under the control of the house owner, but the lake canal apparently is NOT a “no wake zone”. Several jet skis and boats came thru at full throttle with no regard for anyone who may have been swimming in the water, so be mindful if you have little kids. Again, all things that can be worked out. Everything else was awesome. Great dock, fully outfitted kitchen, large rooms, fun games, great WiFi, comfortable beds and pillows, lots of different areas to hang out. Would def stay here again- ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8281ddee-5552-4f9e-bc7c-d84a11a0deb1-1755525891911.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/615d17ff-0f61-4327-afc8-09d645794292-1755525894086.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/947a3ced-575f-4542-b4bc-2946b6872a1a-1755525889821.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Abby W.
