Cabin has double wood siding interior & exterior that keeps it quiet inside, good people & rules make it great, or we help enforce quiet time rules. FM 356 traffic is normally quiet at night but can have some traffic noise during day.

Also not in cabins and or not normally any nuisance to people, but guests should be aware that we are on a natural lake and there can be in wetlands area across the street or in brush snakes, spiders, snapper turtles, alligator across the bridge, hawks, eagles, raccoons, etc. No real danger but occasionally for a couple days usually in spring or early summer, mom alligator will come and drop off a baby alligator off every couple years, stats with it a couple days then leaves. Baby tends to be about 3’ to max 3.5’ when this happens, is too small to be issue, can still only eat max size bullfrogs, kind of fun to watch, but then normally leaves as well within a few weeks cuz too much activity from us. Parks & Wildlife and licensed trappers both said to leave them alone when this small, just do what we do because most the little one can do is eat bullfrog and will leave to find different home if we keep up our activities. And after 8 years we see this is correct.

Nice place

We enjoyed our stay. Clean property and nice sunsets and attentive owners. The lake is very shallow there so swimming isn't really available for an adult but getting in the water felt good. I will say that the bed was uncomfortable but I did sleep. Also there is a lot of road noise that can take away from the pleasant scenery. Thanks again for a pleasant weekend!

Family Fun Getaway

A lot of good things to be said about our visit here. It’s exactly what was expected and we wanted. From comfortable cabin to plentiful fish we found a perfect getaway for our family. The host was VERY attentive to our needs/questions and super friendly. Plenty of restaurants and shopping. The WiFi and tv work great! Every time we rent somewhere the internet is not as good as people advertise it to be. Theirs works great! We had 4 phones, an iPad, and a Nintendo switch. They weren’t slow at all. Again WiFi works great. This is also a nice place for couples. It’s quiet. Cabin is super nice. Grounds are pet friendly If you visit here we wish you the same pleasant visit as ours.

Fathers Day getaway

Owners were very kind & communicated very well with us. Property was mostly as described, however I did not realize that it was right off a main road. A bit of traffic noise at night. Also, I was hoping the water was swimmable for our kids, but it was not. Dirty water, very rocky. Not the owners fault for condition of lake however had I known the condition of the lake I probably would not have selected this site. We ended up driving an hour from the property to swim at another location.
