"We had such a wonderful time staying at Rick's cabin! We were attending a family wedding nearby at an expensive resort nearby, and didn't want to overpay to stay at the resort, so this cabin was the perfect option for us. Much better value, and more fun! The cabin was very clean, private and quiet. It's clear the host has put a lot of love into updating it to make it comfortable. Having the kitchen was so helpful and important to us as well, since we need to cook our own meals when traveling due...

Rocky Cliff Retreat at Davis Lake

Rocky Cliff Retreat at Davis Lake

10/10 Excellent
"My family and I spent four days at the Rocky cliff retreat and it was absolutely wonderful. It has the perfect amount of privacy, while still being easy to get to. We took my daughter’s senior portraits at the lake we’ve been going to her whole life- and then we ended up taking some on the deck of the property because it’s just gorgeous out there. The host is easy to contact and responds quickly. The kitchen literally had everything we needed and I love that the coffee maker is a coffee pot and not pods. My kids absolutely loved the basement area and officially marked this their favorite house that we’ve rented at Lake Davis. The living room is super cozy and the furniture is very comfortable- the wood burning stove just tops it off. I would love to stay in the winter with the stove going - tons of board games and an endless supply of coffee. We would easily recommend this house to anyone wanting to visit the area. I hope we end up renting it again in the future."
