About this property

Gathering on the Bend is the perfect spot for family, friends, or a group of fishing buddies. Whether you want to stock the freezer full of fish or just enjoy the view and unwind, this cozy little cabin will not disappoint. Located just 5 miles south of Bill’s Landing and only minutes from Huxley Bay Marina this area is some of the most premiere catfishing territory on Toledo Bend Lake. Considering you have access to your own boat slip and a personal fish cleaning station right at the cabin it will feel as if you have Toledo Bend all to yourself.

Gathering on the Bend is located right on the lake, and we mean… right. on. the. lake. Enjoy your morning coffee while watching the sun rise from the back porch and relax every evening as you hand fish for bass or catfish.

With three bedrooms and two bathrooms you will certainly feel comfortable in this cabin. Consisting of two twin beds in the second room and queen size beds in both the primary bedroom and the third bedroom, it will easily accommodate six people.

The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, a dishwasher, a Keurig drip and pod coffee station, and anything else you may have at home. The dining room table seats six while the living room consists of a full size couch, two lazy boy recliners and a rocking chair. Outside you can enjoy grilling on our built-in charcoal grill or relaxing the night away by the fire pit. Feel free to hang out inside and watch tv with Roku, free Wi-Fi access, enjoy the dvd player with movies or play some of our complimentary family board games, or other activities including cards and dominoes.

Located only a mile or two down the road is “Trails End” - a local convenience store that offers not only live bait (minnows, worms, and crickets) but also a full service restaurant and some of the best pizza in a 30 mile radius.

-- Directions --
Set GPS for Huxley Bay Marina and when you get to the boat ramp sign in 1500 feet, turn left onto 2481. Turn right onto the dirt road and stop before you drive off into the lake… YOU’RE THERE! Yes, it is that close to the water!

rest n relaxation

Our stay was great. The view was fantastic. Accommodations were fine, lacked kitchen towels. Would like to see a table and chairs on front porch to eat on & watch the lake. Very quiet even with neighbors close by. Will definitely go back to this place

Pretty Point is exactly what this location is.

Beautiful sunrises. Surrounded by other neighbors but yet private. Comfortable living setting. Not hard to find.

Amazing views!

We really enjoyed our stay. The sheets in the Queen room were dirty and 4 pillows in the twin bed room had what appeared r to be dog hair on them. But we still had a good time. The view was amazing.

Relaxing Trip at Gathering on the Bend

We spent a relaxing week at this property. The location & views were amazing. This summer's intense heat dome was in full force during our stay, but the house was clean & comfortable, while the a/c was icy cold in response to 100+ degree temperatures! While I spent my time indoors or on the shady back porch, both my husband & 14-year-old grandson tackled fishing & kayaking. We didn't catch any fish but hope to return when the weather is cooler. Jill was a responsive host & answered my questions promptly. She kindly gave us a late checkout. TIPS: Be aware this area is quite remote & the nearest "big" grocery store (Brookshire Brothers) is approximately 20 miles away in Center, TX. I'd recommend bringing food & supplies with you or making a grocery run on your way to the home. If you forget anything, "Trail's End" is a small convenience store just minutes away & their country-style restaurant was very reasonable & good. They even serve made-to-order Hunt's Pizza for a quick snack. If you drive to Center for groceries, be sure to try TCS Bistro for a leisurely lunch or dinner. I wanted to address a previous review stating that the location was a "trailer park setting.” While many nearby homes are "trailers" or mobile homes, we felt very safe & the neighbors were welcoming & friendly. Many of these homes appeared to be "weekend getaways" & were well cared for. You'll see why people love this area out on the bay having a blast - fishing, boating, kayaking & riding jet skis!
