Escape to the lake
We enjoyed our stay, very short walk to the lake. We were able to find a remote spot that made it feel like we were on our own private island. I only suggest getting the lock fixed on the front door, it took multiple attempt to ensure it was locked every time.

Quaint place on lake
My family and I enjoyed staying here for the weekend. Even though the water was very high for the lake, we went boating nearby, fishing, and golfing. The place is just right for a weekend stay for a small family.

Getaway
Plenty of room to pull my boat and truck onto property without unhooking which made it convenient to get to the launch ramp in the morning. Quiet neighborhood and an easy walk to the beach. There is no internet (wifi) but they must have 250 dvd movies that I didn’t watch. Overall 5 outta 5 stars👍👍

Emergency stay
We had to move out of our house on short notice for a home repair. This was the only pet friendly property available. Although the yard is fenced the yard is mostly grass burrs so keep that in mind if you rent. A trip down to the cove via the walkway was steep with many steps. This wasnt a good option for us as we are older and we heeded the signs warning us of the safety issue of the descent. Overall - a good stay. Comfortable and had all that we needed. Very grateful that a pet friendly rental was available. Thank you to the owners!

Hidden Gem
We loved our short stay. Spent our time on the lake and it was beautiful! Not much boat traffic. The "path" to the lake was a little tough for this "old" lady carrying a paddle board but that's why you buddy up. Loved the patio and Spent our evening looking at the stars enjoying the quiet. Hopefully we were not too loud, lol. Did not get a chance to enjoy all the fun games provided. Lots of little photo ops. Had what we needed in the kitchen. Already putting this down for a longer mother daughter trip!

Secluded little place that had an amazing cove. Jeff was great to work with. Had an amazing time playing with my dog on the lake and the stars were amazing at night. Short easy walk down to the lake.

The Stripe is a Slice of Heaven
We had a great time enjoying the semi-private cove area and took full advantage of the ability to cook for ourselves and even grilled steaks on our last night. The Stripe is great for close friends or romantic partners who are used to sharing close spaces and working together in the kitchen! We would definitely stay here again!

A Great and Relaxing Getaway!
The private beach was enjoyed immensely. My husband fished and it was a perfect place for me to do what I wanted to do - float, relax, enjoy nature, & have some peach & quiet! The cabin would accommodate kids easily and we might bring them along next time we're back. (Or maybe not...)

Awesome lake cabin experience.
This was the best vacation experience. When I walked in I felt at home. The art, the trinkets. It is all super relaxing and welcoming.y dogs Roscoe and Maple loved the trails and swimming. We all agreed it will be our Texas vacation spot as long as it's available. Oh, the sunsets are worth the stay.
