This rental home fit the bill for us perfectly on spacing and rooms (albeit pictures showed two sets of bunk beds and in reality there were the top twins and a single full below in one room). The number of bathrooms was beyond convenient after a day at the beach/pool and we never ran out of hot water! The home was warm, comfortable and very conveniently located with lake front fishing out the back door and community activities/restaurants a short walk away. We cooked our meals on their grill andin the kitchen which had every tool and dish we could need.
Property management was fabulous at checking to make sure every detail was attended to from optimal AC in the unit, to prompt responses to questions and text reminders for schedules. Remember to bring some extra toiletries for longer stays.
We will definitely plan another vacation to Cinnamom Shores and would love to return to The Veranda!

We stayed Tuesday through Sunday mid-July a The Veranda in Cinnamon Shores North. The amenities in this community cannot be beat. We had beach chair set up daily and rented the golf carts from Sage, which is on site. We received daily messages and check-in to ensure everything was going well and we did not have any needs. The house itself was an absolute dream, and I loved the style and decor. It was perfect for our family for, very roomy and could easily fit a set of grandparents or a few more people. We especially loved the extra sitting room upfront and the master bathroom jet bathtub! The wraparound upstairs porch was perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. Backing up to the lake made it especially private and quiet. I would absolutely stay here again.

This is a beautiful, comfortable home in a great location! We had 4 adults and 2 children and it was more than adequate. This home is on the lake, so we were able to do some fishing off the back porch. A couple of drawbacks: 2nd master had a slow draining sink, which was “fixed,” but continued to drain slowly. Only 1 burner on the stove worked. The toaster oven would bake, but not toast, the utensils are limited and need replacing. But it’s nice to have the outside hose, and be on the lake. I do recommend this home, just mentioning the downsides so the owners are alerted.

Location was awesome! Right on the pond for backyard fishing or enjoying your coffee with a view.
Beds are very comfortable and each bedroom had it's own bathroom which was nice. Home is well decorated but not very kid friendly due to all the tabletop decor.

Loved Cinnamon Shore and this house was great. Easy access and great views. Two outdoor fans need some TLC but 10/10 would stay again!

This is the second time we've stayed here and it's perfect for one family or two small families. You can't beat the porches!

We shared this rental with another family and had a wonderful few days at Cinnamon Shores. The place is well equipped with everything you need, and the location on Lake Colby is superb! It is a bit older than some of the other Cinnamon Shore properties, but you really can’t beat the verandas and set up.

We rented The Veranda 141 in June 2020. It is a perfect fit for 2 families. 2 large master bedrooms and a great bunk room, each with their own bath. The front living room downstairs has a murphy bed that is great for an older child. The best feature however is the location on Colby lake. You can walk out the back door and the lake is 10' from the porch. Perfect for breezes and a nice view. It faces east so the back yard/porch is shaded in the afternoon. We will look for the Veranda again on our next trip to CS.

The lay out of this home was perfect for us. We had a great time and would come back to the Veranda in the future.

The Veranda is a beautiful home with a great location w/in CS. It backs up to one of the lakes, so you've got a great view right off the back porch. We traveled with our 3 & 5yr olds & met friends w/their 1, 3, & 5yr olds. The bunk room was perfect for the 4 girls and the rental office was great at providing baby gates and a high chair prior to our arrival.Pools were nice and clean, golf carts worked well (you will definitely need one if you have kids with you as this house is not super close to the beach), beds were comfortable, and the whole community is just beautiful! The home was clean and mostly stocked with what we needed (dish soap, detergent, shampoo, soap, toilet paper). It would have been nice to have basic pantry staples stocked as well (seasonings, condiments, etc) but we made do just fine. My only other small complaints would be that the towels were small and thin (when you pay a premium price, you want premium quality), the grill broke our second or third day there and they didn't fix it until the day we were leaving, and we paid for 2 days of umbrella and chair service and the 2nd day they forgot us, so we had to wait to have them set up for us, and at that point, the beach was so full that we were set up WAY down the beach where it wasn't raked - we had to deal with all the junk that washes up in the sand instead of the nice, clean, raked part of the beach where everyone else was. Kind of annoying to pay for something and not get what we were expecting. I will say, of all of our meals, my favorite was the one we cooked at home (when the grill was working). Lisabella's was overpriced in my opinion and the options in town are not great (whataburger was probably the second best meal we had if that tells you anything). We had planned on the movies & smores nights but it rained both nights they were offered so we weren't able to enjoy that. All in all, we had a great trip and will be back!

Relaxing trip. Only problem was the grill appeared to be locked so couldn't use.

We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at The Veranda! I am sorry to hear that you were unable to use the grill. The built in grill is the owner's private grill. We provide a gas grill just to the side of the back deck, located by where you pulled in to park. We clean the grills prior to arrival and supply the propane. We look forward to your next visit with us at Cinnamon Shore. Thank you!

Our family had a very enjoyable vacation stay at Cinnamon Shore/#37. It is beautifully decorated and very clean and comfortable. The beds are especially comfortable and upstairs bathrooms very spacious. The location was perfect and the property overall is superb. We could not have asked for a nicer experience and plan to return next year.
