The kitchen has all everything you need - necessary utensils, stove/oven, microwave - except a dishwasher. For the fishermen, there is parking for your boat and outdoor plugs to charge it. We also have a large dog pen for use. And for the kids, there is large playground with several swings and a sand box. Playground is a shared space with Cabins 1 and 2.

I can see how it would be difficult with more than two or three people. The boat launch was a little tricky to find at first but the host was quick to answer our questions. I will say you need to be experienced in launching boats in order to do so without issues (it was quite steep). Overall though,we had a wonderful stay and enjoyed our time in toledo bend! ##### Claire L.

Very quiet and secure area! Will definitely book again! Clean with all the right amenities! Boat ramp is pretty steep but ok for 4x4 truck with experienced launcher! The huge oaks draped in moss add to the serenity of the stay! For sure a hidden gem on Toledo Bend! ##### Jessica L. Stayed 4 nights in May 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Julia W. 28 Mar 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Hope this is helpful! I want this review to be helpful to the next person who rents this cabin. I was a little disappointed. This was our first stay at Toledo Bend so we didn't know what to look for in a cabin. Pictures can be very deceiving. This cabin is veeeeeery tiny! It's a tight spot for just 2 people and a dog. It worked though for our first weekend. If you were to have more than 2 people, you would have no where to put your stuff. We literally had a walkway from the door to the kitchen area. The hot water in the shower literally lasted 3 minutes so take your showers fast and wait a while for the next person so they can have hot water. 😉 this cabin is not "on the lake" unless you have a boat. We did not have a boat so we had to fish off the boat ramp in the channel that came close to the cabin.. It was a very small area to fish in with lots of debre in the water to get hooked on. You couldn't really walk around the fishing area because everything around you was private property. We finally found an area about 10 min away that wouldn't make us pay to fish, but when we went there we kept getting hooked up on the rocks so we just gave up there too. Although our first weekend to Toledo bend didn't go as smoothly as we had hoped, it was still a great weekend and we did catch some fish and had a relaxing time! We will definitely be back to Toledo Bend but for us, we will need something a little bit bigger and a bigger area to fish. ##### Julia W.
