What a wonderful home away from home ... I am sure we will be back to this beautiful location!

The whole experience started with very kind and extremely accommodating communication by phone and e-mail with Julianne, the owner of the property, who made me feel very welcome. The directions and instructions we received were very helpful, and made finding the house easy. Julianne's family house is just beautiful on the inside and the outside, and is situated at a most wonderful location! Having a cuppa on the deck in the morning overlooking the lake and hearing the sounds of nature, was my favorite pastime during our 5 night stay, in which we did a lot of running around visiting family. However coming back to Julianne's house, felt like coming back to our quiet and peaceful haven. On our morning runs we met some of the people in the neighborhood walking their dogs or out for a stroll, and everyone seemed as kind and welcoming as Julianne has been. It makes me want to spend much more time at this location. We rented the house for Christmas so we would have a relaxed and inviting place for family living in Alabama, to get away from their daily routines and come and stay with us. And the house and all the amenities fully achieved this, as everyone loved visiting. The decoration of the house is very comfortable and stylish, and it truly feels to me like a home away from home. And to have the Christmas decorations used by Julianne and her family for their own Christmas celebrations, was a great bonus that we fully enjoyed. The fact that this used to be Julianne her family home and that she also spends time here with her family at special occasions, shines through in the decorations of the home and it seems to fill the house with the love and warmth that you do not often find in the holiday houses you rent, and which was just such a big bonus to our stay. Unfortunately did we never get to meet Julianne or her family, but we were told by several people from different walks of life, that the family is one of the nicest, kindest and most honorable families you can meet. How truly lucky were we, to find the listing of their house on VRBO, and how much are we looking forward to a future stay. Thank you again so very much Julianne, for sharing your home and making us feel so welcome. We just had the best time we could have had, and your house is all we could have asked for. We treasure the memories made at Tranquility Point, and we wish you and your family the very best. Take care and keep doing what you are doing, as you are doing it very very well!
