Recent Reviews in Gun Barrel City

Casa KK | Luxe Lakefront 4BR/3BA w/ Views & Dock

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second time to stay at Casa KK. It’s a beautiful home with a beautiful view of the lake. We love the bedroom layout, comfy beds, well supplied kitchen, comfortable seating for 6 at both inside and outside tables, quick responsiveness of our hosts, and the quietness of the area. There was so much room in the kitchen and so easy to prepare our food and set up a buffet for our meals. We ate out one night using one of the recommendations from our hosts. Everything is close by - restaurants, CVS, Walmart… this is a perfect location. We’ll be back next year! If we could give 10 stars, we would!"
