Outstanding property. Great location on the lake. Boat ramp nearby. The house is super clean and super cute. Great for couples or families. You can fish right off the dock if you want to or bring your own boat. Again, this is one of the best properties my wife and I have been to on Lake Fork, then again, it’s probably one of the best we’ve ever stayed in. The owners were very responsive and everything went seamlessly. We will be back.

This rental was exactly as described. Clean and plenty of room inside & out. Large property with many areas for outside activities and seating. Catfish fishing from the private dock was very successful & fun for all of us. The deer were out several times a day. The sunrises and sunsets on the lake are beautiful!

Lake Fork Retreat

Our family enjoyed your wonderful Lakehouse retreat as we caught a giant catfish on your long dock over Lake Fork. The large windows captured the view of Lake Fork with Herons and Egrets nesting among cattails. The home was decorated with a Lake House Flair but everyone loved the large sectional that reclined. We would recommend staying at your Lake Fork Retreat with deer strolling in the meadow.

Highly recommend. Clean. Cozy. Lake is walkable and there’s also private launch access if you are bringing your boat. Kitchen had everything we needed (stove, microwave, utensils, pots/skillets, coffee maker, etc). There are also several fast food, pizza, and restaurants 10 minutes away once you’re back on the main road. Inside games, puzzles, books and outside games. Catfish easy to catch from the dock. Many deer, birds, and squirrels. And even though the home is on the lake - we did not see any boaters during our stay in that cove (so very private).

Holiday getaway

What a beautiful property. We enjoy each morning watching the deer come in. Fishing on our boat was great and having the dock was so convenient. This home was decorated for the holidays and was so cute. Had all the comforts of home. Would highly recommend this property.

Relaxing Weekend. Neat towns nearby!

The house was perfect for our group. We had fun sitting on the back patio overlooking the lake, playing games and exploring the nearby towns. The owner gave us great recommendations for restaurants in the area. Sulphur Springs has such a cute town square with a lot of community activities.

Close to town but secluded in a great location.

We stayed here to fish the Skeeter's owner's tournament and the house is very nice and perfect for our needs. It was right on the water but just far away from all the craziness associated with such a large tournament. The boat ramp being so close, and private dock is such a great added convenience. The host was great, available for any question and responded very quickly. Highly recommend.

What an amazing property! It’s as beautiful as it is online. The living area is amazing with the large windows looking at to the lake. Bedrooms are so comfortable and oh my…the showers!! Joanna was so very responsive throughout our stay. It’s a paradise for bird watching and seeing deer. The dock was great for my husband and step son. We will be back.
