About this property
Lakeside Cottage
FYI: The boat slip is rented out to a neighbor, so he may come launch the boat during your stay. He just needs to launch and then put the boat back on the boathouse later in the day. He will be on and off the boathouse very quickly.
You will be on lake time from the minute you arrive and can enjoy gorgeous sunsets in the evenings. Located on the south end of Lake Livingston with lots of open water. The 3 bedroom house has 2-queen beds and one set of bunk beds with a pull out trundle plus a twin blow up bed and one on the couch. There are 1 full bathroom plus a 1/2 bath. The open floor plan is great for entertaining with a beautiful view of the lake and magnificent sunsets. A large porch faces the water for extra entertaining with ceiling fans for a cool breeze. Kitchen table seats 6 and 2 barstools at the island plus a picnic table on the porch with extra chairs. There is central a/c and heat, washer & dryer. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes and pots & pans. Bring food, drinks, paper goods, and sunscreen.
The property has over a 100' bulkhead with an 8' sidewalk along the water's edge. There is a picnic table and extra chairs on the boathouse. Easy access to the water for swimming from the boathouse by two ladders. There is a swim ladder and a ladder that is at an angle so it's easy to climb up or go down. For night fishing off boathouse there is an underwater light plus lights on the boathouse. There is a community boat ramp nearby or there is a public boat ramp about 3 miles away at Browder's.

Clean well maintained cozy cottage. They have everything you need. Had the perfect getaway. Spent most of our days relaxing in the comfy chairs on the dock. Fantastic view of the length of the massive lake. An excellent place to relax!
You couldn’t ask for a better host or a better place just to get away relax , fish, and enjoy your time. This is our second year coming here for our family vacation and plan to return next year. We absolutely love this place..
We had an AMAZING time and would recommend this place to anyone wanting to go relax on the water and fish. We are already planning another trip here. The host is very accommodating and very responsive. Great place to stay we cannot wait to go back!!!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay. The area was super peaceful and the house had everything we needed. The dock was a great fishing spot and we enjoyed a fire both evenings.

So glad you enjoyed the campfire. You had good weather for one.
This was the perfect place for a weekend get away. We loved the house and the neighborhood! Very quiet and relaxing. The house was very clean and we enjoyed being very close to the lake. We would definitely go back.
This is a good spot but you need to plan your trip around the weather as there isn't a sand bar or beach with in walking distance so if the water is rough swimming is out.
We have not spent time in this part of Texas and thought it would be nice to do so. The owners were easy to contact and responded quickly. The view of the lake is lovely. It is in a quiet neighborhood and was very peaceful, just what we needed.
