This place sits in the middle of a 566 acre ranch with a 25 acre lake just a short walking distance from the house. The lake was just rebuilt in 2022 so the fish aren’t trophies yet but you can catch catfish, bluegill and small bass. Sit and watch the deer and other wildlife from the porches, cook out on the back porch with the family, go for a nature walk or enjoy a nice fire from the living room or screened in porch fireplaces. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the marina ### Things to do - Fishing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91890000/91885000/91884906/91d7f728.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lodge #3 w Pool, Game Room, 1/2 Mile to Boat Ramps Yantis - Pool - Free Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning - Gym [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-15&endDate=2026-01-16&selected=91884906&PinnedHotelID=91884906&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/54000000/53970000/53961600/53961553/ea17f00b.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Country Getaway for Work or Play 5 miles from Wind Point Park Lone Oak - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Air-conditioning 9.6 Exceptional 19 reviews £223 includes taxes & fees 12 Jan - 13 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-12&endDate=2026-01-13&selected=53961553&PinnedHotelID=53961553&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/119000000/118840000/118831800/118831793/w1280h936x0y24-8edcd6d6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sultry Safari Unique Romantic Glamping Cabin Rains County - Air-conditioning - Parking available - Barbecue grill - Fireplace £170 includes taxes & fees 5 Jan - 6 Jan [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-05&endDate=2026-01-06&selected=118831793&PinnedHotelID=118831793&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96460000/96454800/96454760/d4f2a717.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cabin in the piney woods of East Texas, near lakes and state parks.

The house is big and beautiful, with everything you might need for your stay. The location was by far the best part. Quiet, private, peaceful, wildlife, a lake, plenty of room for the kids to run around and play. The owners are so sweet and kind. We would definitely stay there again. ##### Lynn B.

Property and house was absolutely amazing! Very big and clean! Secluded and great neighborhood! Didn't have to worry about the boats! Communicating with the owner was a breeze and they took care of us without hesitation! House is about a 9 minute drive to lake fork, which was perfect with multiple gas stations and tackle stores on the way! Absolutely perfect stay for a week fishing fork! Will definitely be back! 5 stay! 5 House! ##### Christy V.

It sits way off the main highway, in a beautiful area. Upon arrival there was a huge basket of snacks and goodies to enjoy. It was super clean and we all had room to spread out. Every bedroom had its own tv, which was very nice for our family of 5 to be able to relax and rest. Another perk was that our fur babies were able to enjoy it as well. I don’t even have the words to say how kind our host was. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful, relaxing respite from the world. ##### Ashley T.
