WATERFRONT House in Peaceful Cove w/ Great Fishing

Welcome to our beautiful lakefront cabin on Lake Sam Rayburn Reservoir near Broaddus, TX. This lake house is perfect for anglers, hunters, and families. Located less than five minutes from Broaddus, TX and the Jackson Hill Marina you will be close to stores, restaurants, and boat access while still feeling you are away from it all. Zavalla is twelve miles away and Cassels-Boykin public access is only ten miles away.

Walk less than one hundred feet and you are at the shore of a sheltered cove that is great for swimming, fishing and boating. Photography and birding possibilities abound-- regularly seen are bald eagles, cranes, egrets, hawks, turtles, otters, and deer.

For the anglers we have tried to meet your needs: conveniently located exterior outlets for charging your equipment and shoreline tie-offs for your boat if you so desire. The fishing here is amazing as well, with large-mouth and other assorted bass, crappie, gar and catfish waiting to hit your lines.

Hunters staying here will be pleasantly surprised at how close they are to hunting in the Angelina National Forest just a few minutes from the property.

Lake Getaway!

We enjoyed our stay. Ended up having to leave a day early because I got sick. But Erin offered us a free night for the next time we visit. We will definitely be back! Erin & Brian responded very quickly to every message. The house was comfy and right on the water. The pillows & beds were so comfortable! Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a getaway!

Very nicely done. Enjoyed the backporch very much. Should think about installing a fishing pier length wise across the back before someone falls. Nice atmosphere and very cozy. Hope to see you same time next year. We'll be back.

Great little get away spot

Cute small lake house was the prefect little get away spot. Right on the water, we could leave our boat out. Let me just say the deer were out and about. When we first arrived there were 3 deer right near the back porch, it was so neat to see. Quiet area. Would stay here again.

Great Place

Quiet, secluded, and you can beach your boat on the property. This is the fourth place we have stayed on Sam Rayburn, and by far the best. We will rent it again.

Heater was broke

Seems like a great place to stay. The heater was broke when we tried to come. The owner refunded the full price, and offered a free trip later on. We are still looking forward too it!

Perfect place to unwind from holiday rush, unplug and catch up with family. Peaceful location on a secluded cove. We took nice walks, caught (and released) fish and basically relaxed.

My husband and I and our dog stayed for a few days during the week and it was very peaceful. Weather could not have been more perfect. Lake house is very comfortable and well stocked with pots/pans, towels and basic household essentials. Great backyard with hammock and firepit. We launched our kayak right from behind house. Great cove for paddling around. We will be back.Host is quickly responsive. ccomfortable
