From the moment we pulled up and saw the beautiful landscaped yard with the huge trees and hundreds of flowers to the huge front porch with the swing, we knew we picked the right place to stay. We confirmed this when we went inside. New, clean and everything you need, and much more. 4 televisions, 1 with surround sound, whirlpool tub, great kitchen with everything, laundry room,ceramic tile and wood floors, central air, ceiling fans in every room, and so much more. And then to cap it off we went out back and were blown away. Huge deck, covered hot tub, fire pit, horseshoes,BBQ grill, more awesome landscaping. Houston County lake is only a short walk away. This is the place to stay! If you can book it. We suggest calling in advance. If anyone has any questions please call or e-mail jkapsos@wi.rr.com (Jim insisted I include his name and contact info?) Jim and Rita K 03/28-03/30/08 Mark & Brenda Thanks so much! We had an outstanding time. It is so quiet up here-you really feel like your getting away.

Our group had a great time around the fire pit, and the front porch was a superb place to visit as well. The proximity to the lake is great, and kids would enjoy the fishing, and swimming in the nearby pool. This is a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle. Some folks may not like the limited cell phone service, but we relished it. For once no calls from the office. It was a great stay, and we would recommend the Gregory to anyone Thanks, Don P Thanks for the nice retreat! I would like to bring my family back for a visit. Nathan The house was perfect.

It has everything you need for a nice quiet get away. It's like a home away from home,but without the hustle and bustle,,,or noise! We did nothing but sit around and actually enjoy each others company. Our favorite part was the Jacuzzi in the back yard. It was so peaceful and quiet! Bob & Dee St.J. |
