Good Locatuon for THSBA Tournament
We stayed here two weekends in a row for THSBA prefishing and tournament weekend. House was perfect for our capitan and anglers. Road getting to the property isnt the best but is doable with a truck and boat trailer. Host was responsive and we were able to extend our stay an extra day with no issues. Would definitely stay here again for future tournaments on Sam Rayburn.

Quaint Cabin
This was a very charming, older rustic cabin tucked away in the woods. The host saw that we had all of the necessities although we never met or spoke with the host. We really enjoyed our stay. It was peaceful and quiet. It was also super neat to see all of the deer roaming the area.

Quiet and perfect
The cabin was very clean. Had everything and anything we needed. It was my friend and I on a fishing trip. We had plenty of room. The kitchen had everything you have had home. It was very comfortable. Looked like they had 100 DVD movies to watch if we wanted. We will definitely stay again!

Perfect little home.
Perfect for a quick get away from the norm. Quiet, neighbors were basically inexistent. There were other homes around, but we only saw 1 or two other people the entire weekend. Looking forward to staying here again in the future.

Get away weekend
Great! Wife and I went to Sam Rayburn for a relaxing weekend of fishing, and we found it! Quiet and peaceful, after a day on the lake. The cabin was clean and prepare for us. We would definitely stay there again and recommend it for anyone looking for a get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. If you want a location close to a great launch ramp, this is it! From leaving the cabin to launching on the water, approximately 10 minutes at the most.

Cabin in the woods near lake.
The house itself was in decent shape and mostly clean and ready for occupancy but, whoever is taking care of the grounds outside of the house, yard, etc. is failing and can do a much better job. There were fire ants all around the porch and walking paths. I seen much of the back deck was overgrown with vines and the deck furniture had spiders and spiderwebs on most of them. The grass was somewhat cut but hedges, flower garden again and around house and around outside fire pit sitting area need immediate attention badly. All was badly overgrown. The groundskeeper for this property is failing badly and really spoils the view and experience for this beautiful cabin and property.

Very nice cabin
Located in a very quiet area, the cabin was very clean, very comfortable and well organized. The kitchen had all the pots, dishes, silverware and utensils you will need. It was also stocked with plenty of spices. For those with a boat, the cabin is not far from Jackson Hill boat ramp. We could not be happier with our stay there and will definitely consider staying there again.

Excellent getaway
We had a great relaxing time. This place has practically everything you would need. Just bring your clothes and food. The beds are super comfy and we loved hanging out on the back deck that is fenced in so our dog couldn't escape. We didn't get a chance to enjoy the fire pit area. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get away. We look forward to returning in the near future.

Cabin is romote and quite
Cabin was not cleaned as well as it could have been. Have pictures will share if needed. Coffee pot dirty, had to buy one. Roaches were visable as well. Back deck was not cleaned, would have loved to set on the deck but we did not bring a blower to clean with. Over all this would have been a great place with a little care and cleaning. I reached out to the Hostess and she offered to refund but we had no where else to go to in the short amount of time when we arrived.

We had a great time. Amy was very friendly, she answered our questions and even provided a list of places to visit in the area. The cabin was well stocked with utensils and pans, very clean and organized. The books and DVD collection were a plus. We will definitely be back
