The Gowdy apartment was very clean and comfortable. Jim met us and explained everything we needed to know and was helpful throughout our stay. We loved the location, and the back yard was great for having other family members come visit. We have been going to Lake City 50 years and stayed in a variety of houses and cabins and this is our favorite. We will certainly be back!

Coast apt stay
This apartment was fabulous! It was cozy and decorated so well! All appliances were top-end and the beds were so comfortable. Jim, the host, couldn’t have been more helpful. We left a phone charger and he called to ask if it was ours. He then even delivered it to us the next day. We will definitely be back!!

Quick Getaway in Lake City
My husband and I spent four nights at this property in early June 2025. We loved the location of this apartment, and that it had a patio and fenced backyard area for our sweet pup. The home was cozy and comfortable and within walking distance to a number of shops and restaurants. The owners provided detailed instructions for check-in and the home was well stocked with everything you need for your trip. My husband was able to get early morning pictures of a moose, in a lake area about 10 minutes from the property. We look forward to another visit!
Jim was an excellent host, communicated clearly the check-in and checkout procedures we needed to follow. Jim was very polite. Property was very comfortable and clean.

Awesome place to stay!
We were in LC for ice climbing. This place was perfect for our group. Close to the climbs (kind of hard not to be in LC lol), enough room for our gear and stocked kitchen with pots and dishes... Would stay here again!Jim was also nice enough to meet us out front around 9pm to make sure we got into OK and settled. Super friendly.

Great host
From the moment I booked, Jim, the host, was amazing. His communication was lightening quick and helpful. He met us at the property and gave us some insider intel about Lake City. He made sure we were well taken care of and had everything we needed. The property is on the Main Street, making it convenient to walk to restaurants and local shops. The 2 bedroom apartment is comfortable for 4 adults. The kitchen is well equipped and unlike many other locations it has Dish tv. I would highly recommend staying here.

Lake City Fall Fun
We loved our stay here, what a great find! We stayed for the weekend with my Nephew and his girlfriend and our 2 dogs. The owners were very responsive and helpful. The property was clean and had everything we needed, including some kitchen staples we forgot to bring. The fenced backyard was nice for the dogs, and we enjoyed morning walks down by the river. Great base camp for adventures of all kinds, we would definitely stay here again!
