About this property

Looking for a QUIET lakeside getaway?

Looking for a QUIET lakeside getaway? Casa Reel is a great destination for a low-key lake experience. Perfect for those who like to fish, swim, canoe, or relax on the deck. Not a party pad, Casa Reel is nice for couples, small families, a couple of fishing buddies, or as a home base for a few gal pals who want to explore Athens, Canton, Dallas, or Waco. Located on Richland Chambers Reservoir, 15 min SE of the historic town of Corsicana. Non-smoking property inside and out. Pets not permitted. 3B/2.5 house located on cul-de-sac in charming cove with beautiful views of the lake and over 200 ft of waterfront, which incl private dock and boat slip. Just fyi, it's a country setting...we do our best to keep them at bay, but there may be some bugs and critters.

This property was perfect for our stay. It is very quiet and the lake view is visible from the kitchen, dining room, living room and master bedroom. Everything was as described, and we had responses to our communications very quickly. We liked the place so much that we've already reserved it for another stay in the fall. We've wanted to find one VRBO property as our primary rental and this turned out to be the one. Looking forward to staying here again and again.

Just what the family needed

We had a wonderful time over the Labor Day weekend at this house that had it all! We enjoyed floating in the lake, chilling by the water, sunning on the patio and everything this gem had to offer. The house was clean, fully stocked with everything we needed and a whole lot more! We definitely want to come back real soon!

Great House on the Lake

This house was perfect for our family to stay at for a fishing tournament. Plenty of beds and seating for everyone and the view of the lake was amazing! They provided plenty of towels, blankets, pillows and all of the kitchen essentials. The host, Laurie was very responsive to my messages with questions before our stay and she met us at the house when we arrived to welcome us and give us details about the home and things to do in the area. We would definitely stay here again!
