Holiday rentals with a kayak in Western Europe

We had a wonderful time at Tami's place! The house is super cute, so well designed, and in a great location that lends itself well to doing things on-site as well as serving as a springboard to other places/attractions. At the house, we enjoyed sunbathing, snorkeling (cool fish living right there whereTami and hubby built a wall in the water with stacked limestone pieces), and paddling the ocean kayak (we saw a nurse shark as we were heading out to one of the sandbars!). We loved the deck where you can sit and enjoy the cool breeze off the water while listening to the waves and admiring the view. As mentioned, we were close enough to zip into town to shop, visit beaches, and do an excursion without having to drive very far. Communication both prior & after arrival was easy and replies were super prompt. Once there, Tami had left a notebook full of info on every possible thing to do/see on the island. We loved our time there & wished we could have stayed longer!

I have stayed with Kenneth several times. He is a wonderful host and the property is beautiful. The home has any and everything a person could need to have a wonderful stay! I truly can’t say enough good things about Kenneth and his properties!

We absolutely loved staying a this beautiful little cabin. we stayed here for 7 days and Lacey accommodated an earlier check-in. She was very responsive. The house was very clean. We would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect getaway from all the noise of city life. This is the location you want to go if you need to relax and enjoy some time away in beautiful AR. Kelly is the best host, very responsive and super laid back. Will return for sure!.

It was a cozy and comfortable place to stay. The amenities were great, and we especially enjoyed the hot tub! Anna was a wonderful host, and we appreciated her hospitality

Hutch’s Bluff was a great house in a fabulous location. There was all that you needed for your stay as well as beautiful view of the river. We felt right at home and it was so peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely return.

We LOVED this place. My family and I had a great time with all the amentias we had just at the Airbnb alone. It was everything and more. Sergio was a great host! We also took advantage of the limo service to a concert, and it was amazing! The house was so clean and the location was great. It's only about a 20 minute drive to get to downtown Dallas. We would definitely stay here again.

The home was clean, ready, and welcoming, & stocked with anything we might have needed. LaDonna was very thoughtful of us & just a text away if needed. The view from the main living area is gorgeous. She has one of the prettiest yards and walk to the water. We would definitely go back there again!

A little off the beaten path but an absolute amazing place to wind down especially if you’re looking for a break from the city atmosphere. Kenny was fabulous, the home was perfect or our little reading retreat! Will definitely stay on the list for future travel!

One word. PERFECT. The host was very nice and sent a message the day we checked in, well before the check in time, explaining exactly how to get to the cabin, where the key was ect. My friend and I brought a ton of movies and games and activities so we spent most of our time indoors but the time outside was great! We spent a fair amount of time outside on the porch (which has fans) on the rocking chairs and the hammock on the deck. I’m usually a mosquito magnet but in the 5 days we stayed I only got bit once on the last night. There was way more included than I expected as well! Kitchen had everything we needed to cook and extremely clean. The host also had a little booklet on the table giving a brief overview of anything they could think of from remotes to light switches as well as checkout instructions. There was also a binder with local restaurant menus as well as recommendations for things to do in the area. All in all everything was great and easy and we cant wait to stay again!

We absolutely LOVED this place!! My fiance and I needed a place to stay for the night with our dachshund and this was the best place we could have picked! We rented the kayaks and it was so much fun🙌🏼 props to the owners of this place, because the decoration was amazing!! I will most definitely be coming back. Thank you so much for everything!!

very nice and relaxing

So relaxing! We are always so busy and on the go, so this was the perfect spot for us! Private, and quiet; we enjoyed how peaceful it was. The space was super cute and clean and had everything we needed. Did some fishing, relaxed in the hot tub, and ate at a couple of local restaurants, The Wellwood, and The Forge. The only thing we didn’t enjoy, was leaving! Looking forward to going back! ❤️

Nice Place. Tough and difficult for travelers to haul luggage across a long lawn without a walkway- but the cottage and location makes up for it.

We were on our honeymoon and was a perfect getaway for us to relax! We really enjoyed the amenities and extremely clean living space. A few of our favorite parts of the stay were chilling on the porch swing, kayaking, swimming, and fishing. We would highly recommend this to anybody who wants a private and romantic getaway!

We had a very peaceful, relaxing stay! The hosts and manager were very friendly, helpful, and proactive. It was a beautiful setting and we would come back again!

Rachel’s cabin was such a great getaway for our family vacation. There were so many little details that she thought of that made this day that much more enjoyable. This place is beyond family-friendly with plenty of accommodations for kids of all ages. We really loved having the side-by-side for easy access to the river where we spent the majority of our vacation. Would definitely recommend to anyone and will likely be back for another vacation in the future.

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was cozy and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Our kids had an absolute blast at the lake—paddle boarding and kayaking were definitely the highlights for them. We also really appreciated the well-stocked kitchen, which made it so easy to cook meals together as a family. Such a peaceful and fun getaway—thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

My wife and I stayed for an anniversary get away. The house and the surroundings were beautiful. We enjoyed a peaceful evening on the deck. The house was well appointed and had everything we needed. Would definitely visit again

Our stay was truly special and exactly what we were hoping for to celebrate our anniversary. The cabin was not only just as described, but it had an extra warmth and charm that made it feel like home. It was the perfect mix of comfort, peacefulness, and beautiful scenery—ideal for unwinding and spending quality time together. What really made the experience stand out, though, was Kevin’s hospitality. He went out of his way to make sure we had a great time—he even lent us one of his fishing poles and gave us a quick lesson, which meant a lot to us as first-timers. That kind of thoughtfulness made the trip even more memorable. We’re so glad we chose this place to celebrate, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Thank you Kevin!

We had high expectations based on the listing and reviews and they were met. The cabin was charming, well appointed, and clean. Great care package set up when you arrive. Hot tub, grill, fireplace all worked and the instructions were appreciated. A rare wind storm came through during our stay knocking out power to the area for part of the day but the well stocked games along with the fireplace to take the chill out of the cabin made us not mind at all.

Contemplation cabin is the place to be. We had the best time. In fact, we needed more time to do more exploring and to be able to enjoy the river and the kayaks that were available. Logan was flexible and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again.

My husband and I came here for our anniversary and immediately felt we could decompress and relax. It was so peaceful, loved the style of the house, the private lake was so nice and we loved grilling and just being in nature.

I have stayed here several times and just love it. It's perfect for my short stays in Abilene -- especially the screened porch with comfy furniture and a nice view of the lake for a long session reading.
