About this property

Quiet creekside retreat on Lake Bob Sandlin - boat dock on property

Nestled in the Piney Woods of East Texas on Lake Bob Sandlin, the retreat cottage is recently renovated and ready for guests to enjoy the peace and quiet of lakeside living at its' finest!

The cabin can sleep up to 4 guests with a full-size bed in the bedroom, and a new pull-out Sleeper Sofa (also a full/double-size mattress - sleeps 2 together). And the Living area/Kitchen has all new furniture -- including a larger fridge with separate freezer compartment.

Fully furnished with all bedding, towels and kitchen essentials including a toaster oven, coffee bar, microwave, and snacks provided. Relax on the back porch in the swing, while listening to the beautiful sounds of nature and make this a perfect getaway from all of the hustle and bustle of city life while enjoying the serenity of the outdoors.

You can enjoy the view of the lake from the porch swing while having coffee in the morning, or gazing at the sunset with your favorite libation.

Lake Bob Sandlin covers approximately 9,000 acres with 120 miles of shoreline known for excellent fishing and is home to plenty of wildlife, including herons, ducks and many other birds. And you can't miss all the deer, squirrels, and raccoons running around!

Also, since we have a private boat ramp just 2 houses away, it's perfect for anyone wanting to bring their own boat, coming for a local fishing tournament, or maybe just a weekend fishing getaway! And you can tie up at our private boat dock connected to our property.

If you're not into fishing, feel free to explore the local wineries, places to eat, antique shopping and our very own Texas Exotic Animals Zoo (texasexoticanimals.com), just minutes away. One of our favorite wineries is Los Pinos Ranch Winery, just South of Pittsburg - about 20 minutes away. Details can be provided upon booking.

Located near Mount Vernon, Mount Pleasant and Pittsburg, the Rustic Retreat cottage is 2 hours from Dallas and Shreveport. Located conveniently across the lake from Lake Bob Sandlin State Park on State Hwy 21.

Wonderful location and lake access
My friend and I stayed for our annual fishing trip. Keeping our boat charged and parked was very easy. They had everything we needed-boat ramp and lake access included. I would absolutely stay here again!

Perfect landing spot for a weekend away
This cabin, while quite compact, was all that we needed for our long weekend. The hosts are very thorough in conveying their requests/guidelines for guests as well as any minor quirks that are helpful to know when staying at a VRBO. They were also very considerate and checked in partway through our stay to make sure everything was okay for us. I appreciated all of it. The kitchenette was well-equipped and there was a generous supply of snacks available. :)
