About this property
Veteran's Vacation Cozy 2 bedroom house in Lake Eufaula area. Pet friendly!
Keep it simple at this cozy home on Lake Eufaula. Just 5 miles off of I-40 and 7 miles from Hwy 69. At the doorstep of Lake Eufaula State Park and Marina. Neighborhood boat ramp is 1/2 mile from the house. Bring your lake toys with covered parking for multiple vehicles and boats. Two secured garages with electric for charging. One can fit an 18 foot bass boat or bigger (see pictures) and the second can fit smaller boats and jet skis. In addition we are 14 miles to Eufaula Cove Marina. King sized bed in the master bedroom with a sleeper sofa sized for two kids. Queen sized bed in the second bedroom with an additional inflatable bed in a box. Sofa sleeps 1 as well. No smoking allowed in the house but there are designated smoking areas to include a climate controlled garage. Although, not a fully handicap accessible home, we offer threshold ramps at front door to assist with wheelchairs or strollers and a step in shower. Interior doorways and hallway may be too narrow for standard size wheelchairs. It's called Veterans Vacation because Owners Rex and Stacy are both U.S. Army Vets that met in Iraq in 2004.

About the host
Hosted by Rex Hastey
Rex grew up on a ranch nearby. He retired from the U.S. Army after 23 years of service. Stacy grew up on a farm in Michigan. She spent 11 years in the U.S. Army. We met while deployed to Iraq and have been married since 2006! Stacy is a Registered Dietitian and runs a small consulting company.
We both enjoy fishing, camping, and SxS trail riding. Rex is a Mason and Shriner and enjoys clay target shot gun sports. Stacy is a master gardener and enjoys spending time in the garden/landscape.

Why they chose this property
We live in the neighborhood and enjoy boating and fishing. We are a fairly tight-knit community. It's a quiet community most of the time and can be fun and busy on weekends and holidays. We really like the proximity to I-40 and Hwy 69 which makes commutes to Muskogee, Mcalester, and surrounding areas easy.
What makes this property unique
We offer a cozy and comfortable home providing a landing-spot for your getaways! The backyard is fenced and large to contain children or your pets. The yard is doggie door accessible. Two garages are available for indoor parking and there are two carports for protected outdoor parking.
