The Lazy Possum Cottage @ PK

The Lazy Possum Cottage is a modern fishing cabin on the north side of Possum Kingdom Lake. This remodeled waterfront property offers a gentle slope to the water perfect for swimming and wading. It is usually deep enough to moor a boat or jet skis right at the shore although if the water level fluctuates you might have to tie it up a little further out or use our boat slip at the marina less than a quarter of a mile down the road. This is also the closest boat ramp.

The house has 2 bedrooms, one with a king size bed and the other with a queen. It will sleep 6 if the queen sized sofa bed is used. There is also room for floor mattresses if prior arrangements are made. It also has 2 full baths, one with a shower and deep tub combo, the master offers a walk in shower next to a jacuzzi tub. A laundry room with a full size washer and dryer is off the first bathroom. The large open kitchen with its granite countertops and farmhouse sink offers appliances including an oven, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher as well as small appliances such as coffee maker, blender, and toaster oven. Included are dishes, silverware, cups, barware, pots and pans, tea kettle, hand mixer, knives and baking dishes. A complementary starter array of coffee, tea, and hot chocolate is provided. The large living room doubles as a dining room that seats 6. There are 2 televisions both equipped with the ability to sign in to your favorite streaming service. There is surround sound in the living room and you can connect to the system via Bluetooth to stream music inside and on the porch. WiFi is provided. There is a gas fireplace that is available for use in the colder months.

On the lake side of the house is a screened in patio complete with a gas grill. Grill utensils are available. There is a built in eating bar facing the lake so you can enjoy the view. There is plenty of yard for the kids to enjoy and an outdoor shower to rinse off with easy access to the bathroom through the side door. We offer a huge water mat for your use for $75 for the duration of your stay. Please let us know if you would like to rent the mat so we can put it in your reservation!

This location is right down the street from several restaurants, bait shops, gas stations, a small grocery store with an awesome meat counter, and a liquor store. Nearby are lots of trails for hiking and biking. Boat and jet ski rentals are available near-by and if you are looking for fishing services, let me know and I will get you in touch with an awesome local guide.
During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Possum Kingdom Lake. The vacation home offers free WiFi and a jetted tub.

Perfect long weekend getaway
The cabin is older but the interior is beautifully remodeled with modern touches. The master bath is amazing with an oversized shower and a relaxing jetted tub. The kitchen was well-stocked with skillets, pans, cookie sheets, etc. We aren't coffee drinkers but there were multiple coffee pots, sweeteners and creamers. The only thing we wish we had was more seasonings (garlic salt, etc) to use for our meals but that's on us. The lakefront is beautiful. We spent hours in the lounge chairs at the water's edge reading a book and enjoying the peace. Every evening multiple deer would walk into the front yard to hang out and we were entertained by ducks and geese the entire time. We enjoyed our stay and plan to return!

Lazy Possum is Awesome
This is not our first time to stay at the Lazy Possum and it definitely won't be our last. Steps away from the lake, all things you need or want come with this cottage. We love late nights just sitting, relaxing on the screened in back porch as well as having coffee in the mornings there too. House is comfy, cozy and just perfect for my husband and myself, we love it!

Beautiful cabin on the lake
This property is all it says it is and more. We had a wonderful time. The cabin is gorgeous and very up to date. It is right on the water. If you have a boat they have a boat slip you can use. Also you can just pull your boat right up to the house. Courtney was fantastic answered all questions in a very quick manner. All in all a wonderful time and a place to stay.

Lovely time at cosy cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage is well appointed and beautiful. Great attention to details including a great map of the lake and information about the area. The cottage had everything we needed, and we loved the location, so close to the hike and bike trails. Perfect for a family get-away.

Summer Vacation
Perfect for our summer vacation. Lake was about 95% full so there was plenty of sand for the kids to play in. Water depth was a gradual, gentle slope. For a 6ft individual had to go out quite far to get chest deep. Again, perfect for me and my family. The house appears to have been remodeled recently and was beautiful and well-kept. Everything was not as described- it was more! We really enjoyed the enclosed patio with a great lake view. We met one of the neighbors who was quite pleasant. Others in the area were friendly as well. It seemed to be a quiet area, no unreasonable or excessive noise. Courtney was excellent in her communications with us. She provided so much more than was required. The small details, such as having snacks and everything necessary for coffee were above and beyond. Same goes for the beach toys for the kids and tubes for adults. Truly a great property and host, as well as location! If we go back to PK next year we will stay here. Well done Courtney!
