We truly loved the cabin’s location, the beautiful outdoor views, and all the amenities it offered especially that it was pet-friendly. We had a wonderful time overall and really appreciated having access to the lake, kayaks, and life jackets.That said, I gave the stay 3 stars mainly due to cleanliness issues. While the cabin appeared tidy at first glance, it wasn’t thoroughly cleaned. I found old fries behind the couch that my dog got into, which led me to sweep and mop the area myself to ensure there was no other leftover food. The second floor carpet also had noticeable brown stains near the bed, which was concerning it’s not something you want to step on without knowing what it is.The kitchen could use some attention as well. The pots and pans were very worn, making it hard to cook without food sticking. I even ended up buying a new pan and leaving it behind for future guests. Additionally, the coffee maker still had an old filter inside with moldy coffee grounds, which was unpleasant to find.We don’t expect perfection, but with a bit more attention to cleanliness and a few kitchen upgrades, this could easily be a 5-star experience. The location and setting are absolutely beautiful.

Great Staycation!

Celebrated father's day and last weekend together before my husband's deployment. Great staycation! We loved the lawn space and kayaks. We added child proof locks (round) since our 5 y/o is a runner. Our dog LOVED it! Neighbor at the next cottage caught a catfish so fishing is good too. This cottage met all our needs provided memories for years to come! Recommend bringing spatula, spices and lots of bug spray! A hammock would be amazing in this space! Mosquitos were extra after torrential rainfall this past week (expected). Gas station with a mile. Can sleep 7 people with futon in livingroom. Thank you!!

The Cottage was small and cozy. Was not to thrilled on location. Hoping for a closer swim area. Great for fishing, jetski and boating though. Host very responsive. The overall stay was good.

There are several cottages on this property with a huge one or 2 acre backyard. You walk to the waterfront and you can stay there all day long, which is what we did.

Great little cottage

The place was exactly as expected. The yard was magnificent with giant trees and plenty of shade and ample room. Hopefully they get the damn repaired soon so the lake will be up to the standard level.

We had a great time staying here. I was disappointed that the floating dock is not there. To get to the water there is a path with a small area. We didn't go down to the lake while we were there, however we had a great time and it is beautiful!

DO NOT book this

If only I had gone to book this 2 days later than I did, I would have seen the review from someone who shares the exact discontent! The pictures are NOT what is there. There is no beautiful waterfront like this person advertises. It is overgrown and nasty. We had intentions of being in or near the water the entire time because ITS JULY IN TEXAS!! It was hot and miserable. The cabin is dirty, it smells, and it DOES NOT SLEEP 8. The extremely uncomfortable futon downstairs sleeps one. I messaged the property manager the minute we got there. She conveniently didn’t respond until we were gone saying how sorry she was. When I asked her how she would make it right…nothing. Spend your money somewhere else. A hotel would have been better. If I could post the pictures I took as proof for my credit card dispute, I would.

Lies Lies and oh my…MORE LIES

No water access without walking through “a jungle”. No floating dock! No path to the water. Pictures were lies and when I messaged the owner no response. There is no futon so it will not occupy 8 people. We only have 6 guest but one was a grown male who was going to sleep on the futon to allows the young female adults to sleep upstairs. THIS WAS AN ISSUE!! Called Vrbo to figure what we could do. We were offered to go to a hotel which wasn’t convenient because one of our guest flew in and our vehicles were packed to the rim. The. They offered me $120 but couldn’t get the system to process it so that was a no go. Our river trip turned into a trip from hell quick! Flys were so horrible. I’ve never seen them like that anywhere. They weren’t that way anywhere else we went. These ppl should be ashamed of what they are charging!!

Ok experience

The cabin was a neat change of scenery and we got to see some deer on the property. The grounds are clean and easy to get in and out of but one of the reasons we choose this spot was to let the kids fish off the pier that wasn’t there. The pictures show a new pier and we didn’t find one anywhere. They had to fish off the bank which was about 10 feet wide.

Photos dont do justice

Only sleeps 6 not 8. The couch was not available to sleep on. Pay is too high for quality of place. A.C was horrible, hardly worked. Followed instructions but everything felt like it was going to fall apart any minute. Needs a face lift and updated everything. The dock to swim was the best part. Not worth the price. Paint chips and rotten wood all around the place.

Needs some tlc

Overall the cottage was ok i will not say i would rent this cottage again it really needs alot of tlc for the price being charged. Ended up washing the caked on dryed up spoons and forks in the kitchen and the sheets and blankets should probably not have stains either. The pictures are definitely deceiving. No tv in the guest room like pictured and the cable hardly worked oh and also killed a few roaches that we saw in the refrigerator.

Great time with family and friends. The out side I feel is what made the property. The inside was not the greatest but for a short weekend trip, it was completely fine. I would recommend for a weekend getaway.
