Great stay if you are looking for a remote quiet trip

Perfect location for a quiet getaway. Loved the scenery of the bayou and surrounding areas. Wanted to take a quick camping trip to the woods to get away from the day to day stresses. Caddo Lake and the Jefferson area was exactly what we was looking for. Checked off all the boxes!!!

A Fantastic Place to Stay

This is a fantastic place to stay, even if you don't fish or kayak. The cabin is lovely and very accommodating. Our favorite thing to do was to relax on the deck and watch the wildlife. It was so peaceful and serene. The location was great: in the woods, on the bayou, and between Jefferson and Caddo Lake. We absolutely loved it!

Secluded Rustic Elegance

If you’re looking for secluded, quiet, out of the way comfort, this is it. At the same time, close to everything Jefferson. Lovely, clean interior. Beautiful on the water location.

Escape the rat race

Once you get to the property it is very serene. The property was 100% as represented. The kitchen has everything you would ever need to cook with. I really liked that you could always find a shady spot on 1 of the 3 decks/dock available. The highlight of the trip for us were seeing a red headed woodpecker, Anhinga aka water turkey and so many bright yellow warblers that would come right up on the deck next to you. This is a property we would definitely stay at again.

Wonderful Secluded Gem

This place is off the beaten path and really unique. This place can comfortably sleep 8 people and has plenty of outside deck area. Although we aren't fishers... This is a great place for people who fish. The grandkids loved the loft room and unique steps up to that room. The place was clean and had plenty of linens and beach towels. We had a great time.

Beautiful and peaceful!

This was our second stay at this amazing property. It was just as amazing as the first time. So much to do at the house, the owners thought of everything! On my first review I joked the only thing missing was a big tea pitcher. I had to laugh this time when I saw a huge tea pitcher! It is truly a lovely magical place!

Wonderfully relaxing and beautiful location

Our family had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed the kayaks, but it was difficult getting in and out of the water. A ladder of some kind on the dock would be extremely helpful. I was also wishing that there was a tea pitcher to make iced tea for the family. Overall, we couldn't be more please with this property.

Perfect Quick Getaway!

Two nights full of perfect family fun made for the most amazing memories! Not only is the house well stocked with everything we could possibly need, there are also kayaks, floats, movies, games, and firewood. Being able to just show up and enjoy the property without the hassle of renting water equipment or running to town for extra supplies is priceless! The only suggestion I have is to add a swim ladder on the lower dock for easy exit out of the water. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! We can’t wait to visit again!

Labor Day weekend get a way

The house was amazing! Had all that we needed and more. My children loved the jet tub and fireplace heater. We loved catfishing off the dock and caught two four footers while we were there. Very exciting for kids. The Wi-Fi was spotty due to location but I loved it cause that’s why we went there to get away….we all got to sit together and watch a DVD in the evening. I loved cooking in the kitchen! Loved the gas grill and vent that raises from the island. We will plan a longer trip next time!

Quiet Time on the River

Booked this cabin to celebrate our anniversary. The cabin was beautiful and surroundings very peaceful. Just wish I was brave enough to get in the water! Enjoyed our time in downtown Jefferson too. Want to come back with fishing poles as our son would love it. Thank you for the opportunity to appreciate nature with modern amenities!

Fabulous getaway

Cabin was in such a private location but with all the amenities you could want. The county road to the cabin is pretty primitive but totally worth it. Kayaks were a great perk and fishing from the dock was fun, even if we didn't catch anything. Kitchen was well appointed and the bathrooms were large and super clean. No need to take towels or shampoo or soap or toilet paper/paper towels; all provided. Those are little things that set this property a step above most. Comfy couches in the living room made watching movies at night enjoyable. Beds were comfy and AC worked well. 20 minutes from Jefferson and 30 minutes from the lake was convenient. We really enjoyed the wildlife. We saw gators, herons, egrets, frogs, deer, humming birds, etc. We will definitely be back.
