This is a nice and comfortable property that offers the perfect mix of relaxation and outdoor activity. One highlight is having direct access to kayaks and a dedicated dock, making it incredibly easy to take in the beautiful water views and the stunning cypress trees just across the street.Additionally, the local marina is within short walking distance. It quickly became one of our favorite spots to just sit back, relax, and watch the water, local birds, and beautiful changing foliage. If you are looking for a peaceful, nature-filled retreat with great amenities, I cannot recommend this place enough!

The photographer for this property was very good. The photos are accurate but definitely hide things like the broken kitchen and shower floors and the relatively small square footage. The beds and kitchen were clean but there were a fair amount of dead and live bugs. Pretty cool complex spider web in the window if you're interested. The host was very communicative and seemed helpful.

Family-friendly. It rained, so we didn’t get to use kayaks, but we would love to come back and try again. RV spot in front yard was helpful because we had a large horse trailer with us. It does share driveway with two other houses, so have to watch where you park.

The Cozy Cabin met our needs with comfortable soft beds and a functional kitchen. It was easy to find and is very close to a couple of boat launches which was perfect for us. There is plenty of parking and it even has a level RV site with an electric hookup. Jennifer (the host) was responsive and helpful. We would definitely stay again.

Beds were way too soft, but everything else was very convincing and worth its money. Even kayaks were very good.

Hi Cornelia! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! Everyone’s mattress preference is a little different, but we’ll definitely review the setup and see if adding a topper or firmer option would help. We’re glad you stayed with us and appreciate your feedback — it helps us keep improving for future guests!

There were bugs in the restroom, shower floor was broken in one bathroom, had an old house smell. Other than that we liked the stay. Canoes were not on the property or across street.

Hi Vineela, Thank you for sharing your feedback. Just to clarify, the boats are located across the street, one house over to the left. Had we known about the bugs during your stay, our housekeeping team would have come right away to take care of it — we truly want every guest to have a 5-star experience. We’ll also be replacing the shower pan. In the future, please don’t hesitate to reach out while you’re here so we can make things right right away!

This is a nice place in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the lake access and kayaks across the street. It's a short drive to hiking and biking at the state park and wildlife refuge. Restaurants and antique shops are 25 min away in Jefferson. We cooked all but one meal here using the grill and well equipped kitchen. Check in was easy and the lockbox/key setup is much easier than electronic keypads we've experienced at other places. Jennifer checked in by text to make sure all was good. We'll definitely consider staying here again.

Pleasant visit to Caddo Lake

We had a good stay at Caddo Lake, even though the recent rain made our boat tour cancel (due to launch site being under water). We went into Jefferson and took the historic trolly tour instead. The house was very close to the lake.

Great stay!

We had a great stay at this cozy little cabin near Caddo Lake. The property is across the street from the lake and not on the water. I'm not sure this was super clear in the listing. The beds were comfy, and there was good parking for a few cars and your boat. The neighborhood was quiet!

The description and photos of this home were off quite a bit. We were under the impression we would have a place to dock our boat. Considering the main focal point in the description is “dock access” and kayaking. You cannot see the water at all from the home, you have to drive to launch your boat, it is 4 each launch and there is nowhere to keep it at the property. There were also a few vehicles taking up parking in the back which is where we would’ve felt more comfortable keeping our vehicle and boat instead of the front lawn. Also the lawn was way over grown when we arrived and was mowed on our second day of the trip which caused us tracking in grass throughout the house and our vehicles. Along with an early wake up. None of this ruined our stay but it was very disappointing considered the amount of money we paid to have this luxury. I would not of booked this for the amount if I knew we would have to take our boat in and out of the water everytime. However, the house was cute and in a good location with a few places to eat. But the showers were both in bad shape. The one in the main bathroom of the house didn’t drain properly and the one in the back of the house had a hole in the floor which was covered by a shower matt. All in all we still had a good time but the price point did not match the experience we thought we were paying for.

Great Home Base!

Great property! Old, but clean and remodels make it feel newer and nicer. The listing wasn't completely accurate as there were no canoes to speak of. I can't say for certain we would have used them if there were, but I was looking forward to the option when booking. The amenities details also say there is a playground, but there is no playground on this property. Other than that, it was nice, the internet worked well, and the area was quiet.

The cabin was comfortable. Needs some TLC. It is across the street from the water. We did have a water from view.
