About this property

Lazy Bear Lodge — The Sandifer’s House on Lake Bruin


Welcome to our favorite escape and home away from home! Located on the deep water side of beautiful Lake Bruin, our lake house will not disappoint.

Enjoy a cup of coffee as you watch the sun rise over the lake, or grill on the porch and watch it set across the pecan orchard. Park your fishing boat in the slip, or just enjoy the paddle boards and other dock toys. Or, if you are looking for a beautiful location for remote work, the house is fully equipped with WiFi.

The kitchen is open and well-appointed, with a new fridge, range, dishwasher, and huge farmhouse sink. The bar seats six, and the large table in the same room seats 8.
When it's time for bed, the house has a large master with a king bed and an en suite bathroom, featuring both a soaker tub and separate shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has two bunks and a twin (plus an inflatable matress for an extra friend). Our children's favorite place to sleep, though, is the sun porch, which is enclosed. There is also a sleeper sofa in the main room.

We hope you enjoy your relaxing time at the lake as much as we do!

Great Place!

Everything was just as shown in photos and description. The home was spacious and just right for our family. We loved the screened in porch with air conditioning for the grandkids to have their own space. The owner was extremely helpful in communicating and making sure we were comfortable. The house was very clean and the the lake is beautiful.

Another wonderful trip!

This is my family’s second time staying at this lake house and we can’t wait to come back. I can’t say enough good things about it. Beautiful property and lake, very clean home, well furnished, and excellent host. Large enough to gather together but also space to have a quiet moment to relax. From fishing and boating to grilling and relaxing, there is something for everyone. This is a great property to slow down and spend quality family time. We have stayed at many lake rentals and this property is at the top of our list of favorites.

The property was exactly as described and consistent with reviews

The house is in a very good location with a nice dock on the lake. The entire house is very nice but the kitchen is definitely one of the nicest of all of the VRBO properties we have stayed in. The beds were comfortable and everything in the house worked like it should.

Beautiful sunsets

My family and I really enjoyed ourselves. The lake house and grounds were well kept and the kids loved the fishing and swimming off the pier. A bigger plus was being pet friendly. Bring mosquito spray. Would highly recommend staying there the check in and out was a breeze.

Beautiful Lake Getaway

Our family of 4 adults, 1 child and our small dog enjoyed a perfect relaxing getaway after Christmas. Home was very clean and lacked no amenity. Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy being together or have a moment to yourself. Owner was great and was quick to respond with my early morning question before check in. Look forward to returning!

Beautiful outdoor getaway

Absolutely beautiful and relaxing environment. All of us enjoyed our short stay. There were a few maintenance and cleaning issues that needed attention. Dirty toaster oven, drawers old lining, dirty garbage receptacle in the master bedroom and kitchen. Clogged bathtub drain. The next day we declogged the drain filled with hair. Dish towels stained but presumed clean. Dishwashing soap dispenser emptied. No additional supply under the sink. No sponge to hand wash the large items except small brush.
