About this property
Secluded cove! Fish, hike, hunt! Keep boat in water on private dock Sleeps 18
YES! THE LAKE IS LOW. BUT THIS IS THE PLACE YOU WANT. WE ARE ON A DEEP WATER COVE WITH UNIMPEDED ACCESS TO THE MIDDLE OF THE LAKE. WE HAVE A FLOATING DOCK. FISH OFF THE DOCK OR KEEP YOUR BOAT ON IT
This beautiful A Frame is on a protected cove and nestled right in the middle of the Angelina National Forest on a secluded peninsula (six miles down Forest Service Roads) and right on gorgeous Lake Sam Rayburn. This spacious retreat sits on over an acre on a protected cove where you can fish and ski all day long. Boats can safely be kept in the water on a floating dock.
Since we are in the middle of the National Forest, you are steps away from hiking. Enjoy miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking and bird watching. Challenge your kids to a game of horse shoes, washers, corn hole or spike ball and then cool off in the lake.
The house has 5 bedrooms and two bathrooms and sleeps 18 in beds! It is fully equipped with Starlink high speed internet and Roku Smart Tv and DVD player and DVDs.
Plenty of dishes, utensils, kitchenware, pots and pans and everything you need to cook for a large group. Outside is a charcoal grill and a fire pit with a large grill top. In the garage is an extra refrigerator freezer and a washer and dryer. Inside dining seats 6 at the table and another 6 at the bar with seating for 16 outside on the deck. Bathrooms are stocked with plenty of towels and wash cloths, including beach towels.
All three downstairs bedrooms have queen size beds. The loft bedroom has a king bed and is upstairs. The bunk room is upstairs and has one queen, one full and six twin beds. All beds have very comfortable mattresses and high quality bedding and the full, queens and king beds all have super pillow top mattresses. They are so comfortable you won't want to get out of bed!!
The property has over 300' of shoreline. A two man kayak and a canoe is available with life vests. A large deck overlooks the water and has two large picnic tables and seating. Access to Hiking and paddling trails. Guided tours available upon request and appointment. This place is the best deal on the lake! Just look at the reviews.

About the host
Hosted by Ferryn and Steve
We are retired teachers who live in the A Frame during the winter and at our next door cabin during rental season. We love to watch the sunsets, water ski, spot bald eagles and relax on the lake during the summer.
Why they chose this property
We bought this property in 2010 and planned to rent it until we retired. However, we are now retired and even though this will be our permanent address, we are going to continue renting because it has been such a positive experience. Our family owns the small cabin next door which enables us to enjoy the lake while renting the A Frame.
What makes this property unique
We use to think that the distance from Houston was too far (takes 2 1/2 to 3 hrs) but after spending time at some lakes close to Houston with the crowds, we think our lake is the best in Texas.
