About the host
Hosted by Eve C Albin
We're just a family of 6 that fell in love with the river and with Jefferson.
Why they chose this property
There's so much to do at Old Cypress River House.
There's a boat launch less than a mile away and place at the cabin to tie up your boat.
End the night playing board games by the fireplace inside. Go on a river tour through the Cypress forest with Captain Ron's Swamp Tours and have a catfish dinner at Big Pines Lodge, or be brave and order the alligator!
You're 15 minutes from Caddo Lake in one direction, 10-15 minutes from Jefferson in the other and 30 minutes from Lake of the Pines where you can rent a boat at Bull Frog's.
Bedrooms
Bedroom 1 is huge! It has a King bed with an attached bathroom with a jet tub and a shower.
There is a 55" smart TV in this room.
Bedroom 2 is also huge! It has a King bed. The bath is not attached but is right next door and has a claw foot tub with a hand held shower.
There is a 55" smart TV in this room.
Bedroom 3 is a bit smaller and has bunk beds and an attached bath with a bathtub and shower combo.
Bedroom 4 is not really a bedroom. It is a loft with 2 twin beds.
Dining
There is dining space for 8: a small table for 4 and 4 counter stools at the bar.
Seating
There is a sectional that seats 6 comfortably. 4 dining chairs can be easily used
for extra seating.
WIFI
There is a 55" smart TV in the living room. There is Satellite WIFI available. Hulu, Disney and Netflix can be signed into on all TVs. Remember, what you are trying to do is "get away from it all;" but because we are off the beaten path the satellite internet signal can be spotty at times. Internet gaming on the WIFI is not available since it is Satellite WIFI and there is a delay.

What makes this property unique
You're out/away from it all, but can run into town for dinner in less than 15 minutes. Jefferson is a great place to explore all of the shops and all of the history. You also have Caddo Lake 15 minutes away and Lake of the Pines 30 minutes away.
