About this property
Cozy container cabin nestled in the Angelina National Forrest!
Enjoy a serene and peaceful get away in this one of a kind fully furnished container cabin, also known as the Fortress in the Pines. Cabin sits on 10 private acres surrounded by tall pines and seasoned hardwoods, tucked into the Angelina National Forrest.
This cabin is the perfect place to unplug and recharge. Out here you can breathe a little deeper and smell the pine trees and fresh air. This is the place to be present with your family and friends. Enjoy the simple pleasure of sitting around a campfire roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. Drink in the sunset on the upper deck while sipping a glass of wine. Play card games. Watch birds. Take scenic walks. Sleep deeply in the absolute quiet waking up with the sun and the surrounding wildlife instead of an alarm.
The cabin is new and includes a private bedroom with a queen bed. The couch converts into an extra bed that can sleep two. Tankless water heater provides instant heat for your showers. Covered patio downstairs and top deck sitting/viewing area. Outdoor gas grill, fire pit, oven, stove, microwave, toaster, coffee maker, and refrigerator. The cabin is stocked with cooking essentials as well as plenty of coffee. Due to its remote location, cell service is limited and based on your individual cell provider.
Wondering out will also be a breeze only 30 minutes away from Nacogdoches, oldest town in Texas and home of Stephen F. Austin University. Also, only 25 minutes from Lufkin, TX. If fishing is what you are looking for, Sam Rayburn Reservoir where fishing is second to none, is only minutes away with launch ramps only 2 miles away. For those that want a bit more adventure the Red Bug Cycle Park is minutes away.
