This quiet, charming Chalet on a private cove will beckon you back, again and again!
Enjoy the slow pace, peacefulness and sheer beauty of nature all around you on this quiet fishing lake!
(NOTICE TO TRAVELERS: During drought conditions that cause low water levels, the floating deck sometimes becomes unavailable. We will always keep guests apprised of any such issues. At this time, the water level is now back up and the Floating deck is ACCESSIBLE!

NO SWIMMING ALLOWED: This is a stocked fishing lake. We do not permit swimming. One reason is due to the close proximity of the Trinity River. An occasional Alligator has been known to visit and make it their home.
NO BOATS CAN BE BROUGHT IN.
Outside boats are not permitted on our lake. In the past, they were allowed. However, we incurred over $100,000 in fees to clean out what outside boats brought in. We had to kill all plant life, wait a year and are still working on replacing proper plant life in the lake.
Unfortunately, our boat sank in the boat slip due to being vandalized. Sadly, it is no longer available.
SECURITY CAMERAS: This property is monitored by live video security cameras 24/7. They are there for the security of the property as well as for guest’s security. Guests are welcome to unplug the cameras while on the premises. They just need to be sure to plug them back in prior to departing. Thank you in advance for your compliance!

Summary: I looked at several options and feel so fortunate that I chose this special home. Patricia, our host, made the stay feel especially welcoming with the heaters on, fragrant candles burning and pup treats for the furbaby. She filled the bird feeders so the birds, brilliant cardinals, goldfinch, yellow rump warblers were abundant the entire stay. A few feet from the front door. Patrica is super easy to communicate with also. The location couldn’t have been more scenic and soul refreshing. The “Chalet” felt like a resort but so homey. Well stocked kitchen with modern appliances, wood ready for the fireplace. Waking up in the loft looking out the at the beautiful sunrise and feeling like I slept at the top of the oak tree. Large fenced yard for the dog. Catch (and release for me) big catfish! Great Egrets, Blue Heron, gator in the distance.I plan on returning for a sister trip.
