About this property

This is the best place to escape into another world and still be in Texas! Our newly remodeled lakefront home has the most breathtaking views. Truly a photographer and birdwatcher's dream come true! After spending the day exploring what Caddo has to offer, have a relaxing evening around the fire pit by the water, or stargaze on the vast two-platform deck we just built! The biggest attractions on this lake are boating, fishing, and wildlife viewing, so don't forget your binoculars. Just down the street, you will find guide companies and a variety of tours with themes varying from science and birding to the gators! The famous Shady Glade Cafe, specializing in breakfast and lunch, is an easy walk from the home. You can book a trip with several different tour and fishing guide companies at the boat ramp. If you are looking to venture out on your own, you can head right up the road to Johnson's Ranch to rent a canoe, kayak, or even a boat to explore the tranquil waters! If you need more information, please refer to our Welcome Book that has all the information you need for any adventure. Caddo State Park provides its own kayak and canoe rentals with 50 miles of paddling trails in addition to the Caddo Forest Trail, historic cabins, and guided nature programs. There are miles of nature trails throughout the park. Less than 20 miles away, the neighboring town of Jefferson boasts multiple antique stores, quaint boutiques, and great places to eat. My favorite thing to do is go to the Port Jefferson Nature Preserve they have amazing abstract forest art throughout the boardwalk trail. Other attractions are the historical homes and Excelsior House Hotel, where you can book a walking tour, a carriage ride, and a ride on the antique train on the Jefferson Railway Express Train. You will also get to find all of your Bigfoot memorabilia here! Our hope is that you find this place as majestic as we do and share your experience with your family and friends! Once you come to Caddo Lake, you will be back! There is something mysterious about this place that is unlike anything in this world!

Annual friends weekend

We have been coming to Caddo Lake every October for 18 years. We booked this home because our usual home is no longer a rental. This is our new favorite home! The kitchen is the best stocked with lots of lil extras. The lake view is perfect . We will be back next October.

Great family retreat

We had such a wonderful time with our kids and grandkids. It was a great place for us all to be together. The kitchen was well-stocked. We loved going out on the canoe! Plenty of space to play games and hang out inside and outside! The house was very clean, too. It was an easy check-in/check-out experience!! We look forward to returning again!!

Great home…needs more parking.

This is a beautiful home. Very well kept. Only complaint was not enough parking for 4 trucks with boat trailers, and both boat stalls were filled with boats. Had to park 3 trucks at shady glade. Had to tie up our boats on outside of boat house where they all got drenched in the storm, and had to be bailed out before going fishing. Other than that, the home and amenities are wonderful. Thanks! JC

Relaxing & fun

This house was beautiful & beautifully decorated. The view of the lake was so relaxing, absolutely gorgeous. Much appreciated all the cooking utensils & pans/pots needed in a kitchen, made cooking a breeze! We loved using the kayaks to paddle out & explore. I would definatly come back again.
