This property was recently renovated. The pictures available online don't do it justice. It was much better (with an added bedroom!). Easy access to Shady Glade and Johnson's Ranch. We had a GREAT time with the kayaks, canoe and our boat!The house is right on the lake and the home was clean and comfortable.We will rebook this location when we return to Caddo Lake!

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.

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!!

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.

Beautiful Home

The house was even better in person than the photographs online. Six family members stayed and there was plenty of room for all. I especially liked how all the cabinets and drawers had labels so there was no fumbling around looking for things. Beautifully decorated and host provided many extras not usually found in vacation rentals. Location was perfect as everything we wanted to do was within 2 miles. We had a wonderful time and this house sets a new standard for vacation rentals.

Weekend Getaway

Very nice and clean home with lots of space. There’s no washer or dryer, so if you plan on more than a weekend trip, take extra clothes. Great deck but no space on the water. It has a boat dock, but no space for lounging or fishing on the water. Be nice if they expanded the boat dock for those of us without the boat. Overall, great space to enjoy, but expect quite a bit of boat noise as the channel runs right by the shore. Love the house!!

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

Family Easter Weekend

Property is absolutely perfect. Exactly as described. However, please note that the washer/dryer are not for guest to use because of being on a septic system. But who wants to do laundry on vacation? The large lawn was perfect for my grandsons to play wiffle ball. They played at the water's edge trying to catch critters. My mom (89 yrs old) loved being able to sit in the house and have a view of everything...tons of glass across back of house. I have no negative comments at all. So happy they are willing to share their Caddo home.
