Cozy Houston Getaway w/ Fire Pit & Lake Access!

Whether you're traveling with a loved one or a furry friend, this modern 1-bathroom studio tiny home offers a peaceful Alaskan escape. Prepare a meal in the well-stocked kitchen and dine outside on the wraparound deck while you feel the lake's soft breeze. Going out? Enjoy a drink at a local brewery or visit the Palmer Museum of History & Art. After taking a dip in Prator Lake, return to the Houston vacation rental and end the evening around the fire pit stargazing!

Perfect little cabin
We loved our stay here! Just far enough out of town that you feel in the woods but close enough to go to the store. We enjoyed fishing in the lake and caught a pike! We will definitely be staying here again!
