Location was perfect for where we needed to go. The cabin was furnished very well and had everything we needed during our visit. Would definitely stay here again.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 November 2023
From the owner: "Thank you for staying at Azalea. I hope you come back for more relaxation soon!"
My husband and I wanted a place to get away from it all for a couple of days and this was perfect. Even though there are two other homes close by, you can't even see them from the front of your cabin. It was beautiful, cozy and comfortable. But close enough to towns to run for supplies or something to eat. We had an Internet issue when we first got there but Marina responded quickly and got it taken care of for us. We loved just hanging out there with a fire in the fireplace and just resting and relaxing. I definitely recommend this lovely little cabin!

Relaxing get a way
My wife and I enjoyed our stay at The Deer cabin. It’s a great location in the piney woods of north east Texas. We loved the view from our cabin situated in the trees with a great view of the lake. We liked sitting out on the porch enjoying the view. The cabin was great too. The layout and decor makes you feel that your far from the hustle and bustle, and can just leave all that behind and relax and enjoy.Our host Marina was wonderful. She went out of her way to make sure that our stay was the best it could be. We couldn’t have asked for any better host. We will definitely be back again and have told our friends about this quaint little spot. We highly recommend it. Thank you Marina!
