We truly enjoyed our stay! We came out for a fishing trip to celebrate our Birthdays together… The place was clean, had everything we needed and Becky was very friendly and helpful! We even got to rent a canoe for the day and hit the water! We will definitely stay here again!!
The place was great! My husband and I stayed 2 nights for our honeymoon and couldnt have asked for a quieter place. The sunset over the water was picture perfect
Our stay was good and this place is clean and well afforded everything anyone would need!Unfortunately there was bad weather but the owner’s came to the rescue and placed us in their own home!Not many would have gone this far to take care of their guestThanks a million H and B
Had a great fishing trip at this rental. Perfect cabin for a get away. Very quiet and relaxing. The host was great and very helpful. Will definitely be going back
We absolutely loved this place. Had an amazing time. The host were more than helpful. Everything we needed was provided. Very clean. And in an amazing location on lake sam rayburn.
Definitely will be back.
Everything was super clean, smelled great and beds were very comfortable. Can’t see water from cabin but very short walk to a beautiful water view with dock, my husband was able to dock boat and leave in water which was very convenient. Seating for dinner table is limited but there were chairs on porch. My family really liked it here and would come back.
First time to come to Sam Rayburn and still caught some quality fish. Lake level was about six feet lower than normal but it was still a successful trip. The cabin was perfect and our host Becky came by and was very friendly and we even met some of her family and had a great visit. Already looking forward to making another trip
