This place was an absolute dream location not far from Houston. If you need a weekend away to disconnect from city life this is an absolute gem!

We had a wonderful stay at Stewart’s Cove in Cabin 3! Gene was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the cabin itself was clean and comfortable with great water pressure and a beautiful view. We loved being able to catch fish right from the pier and truly enjoyed every moment. We’re already planning to return — this time bringing our whole family!

I absolutely LOVED this place! It was so peaceful and the exact unwind place I was looking for. Cabin was clean, and cozy with great views It was my dog’s first time at the lake and he had a blast going in and out of the water. My favorite part was laying on the dock at night, listening to the crickets, frogs, and looking at the stars. 100% will be going back.

Weekend Trip to Cabins directly on the Lake

We rented cabins 1 and 2 for a weekend family trip. We had an amazing time! I cannot say enough about how awesome this site is. They have so much to do; basketball, sand box, petal boats, kayaks, life jackets and a WATERSLIDE. The waterslide was a huge hit for both the kids and adults! The Pavilion is covered and a great place for the kids to play. We spent most of our time in the area near the water slide and the dock; there are 2 picnic tables, a grill and an outdoor sink here. We brought flashlights and lanterns but didn't need them! The cabins have plenty of outside lighting, the pavilion and area with the grill also have lights! Both cabins 1 and 2 have a loft area with a little door that closes at the bottom of the stairs. Cabin 2 has a lock on the door, this was helpful since we had a toddler traveling with us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and you will too!

We spent a lovely week at this Hipcamp spot and had an absolutely fantastic time. From the moment we arrived, everything was just right—the lakeside was ready for swimming, complete with a fun water slide, and the air conditioning in our cabin was wonderfully cool. Our host was incredibly hospitable and made sure we felt right at home. We spent our days canoeing, kayaking, and exploring the local town’s charming antique shops, a new ice cream parlor, and a cozy bookstore. We also enjoyed a delightful little diner one evening. One highlight was taking a boat over to a local restaurant with dockside access, which was a really unique experience. We loved it so much that we decided to stay an extra day to soak up more of the lakeside relaxation. Overall, it was an easy drive from the Dallas-Fort Worth area and perfect for a family getaway

Weekend Trip to Mountain Cabin in East Texas Woods

First, if this is your first time there, travel in the daylight. You have been warned. But once you arrive, you will see all the charm that is Baker’s Cabin. Raised cabin with well utilized space underneath. Climb the steps to the deck (very well build and maintained by the way) and get to the back deck. Just turn around and check out the view of nature. There is a feeder which assuredly attracts deer and hogs likely. Walk around to enter and once inside you will see this charming little spot. The spiral stairs leading to the loft are not only solidly built, but so beautiful. A bit narrow for us “big eaters” but very manageable. Kitchen is well equipped so plan a meal or two. The host is very attentive, thank you Ally. Communication was phenomenal and they were available if needed (by phone, text or email) as they are not on property. The area had significant rainfall in the days leading up, so we kept our exploring to the high and dry ground. The aforementioned back deck was also well equipped. We to a short drive into town Saturday morning and brought back steak and potatoes for the grill. Yes, we decided to spoil ourselves. Advice, use pen and paper to note directions as cell service will not be available driving from the property. Cold AC, wifi and tv’s if you need) Host, location and amenities will certainly bring us back. Hope you visit, you will see! Thanks for a great weekend away, Ally and Don

Just what we needed for a weekend getaway in the woods. Love the area of east Texas and the acreage is awesome to explore on utv or walking. We explored quite a bit and walked the creek a long ways south with the pups. The falls were pretty and relaxing to sit and listen to. Susan and Mark were responsive and provided everything you could think of. I hope we come back one day! Beds were comfy too!
