About this property

One of a Kind-Get Away/Big Cypress Bayou Near Jefferson&Caddo

One of a kind retreat for small families, a romantic get away for two, or fishing/hunting lodge.

This property is built over Big Cypress Bayou river which is 3.3 miles from CADDO Lake, 10 minutes from Historic Jefferson, 20 minutes from old money oil town of Marshall, AND 30 minutes from the wide awake Casino town of Shreveport, LA.

The River House is on a private road which lends to peace and tranquility. Great access to the river for amazing water skiing, jet skiing, and boating awaits. If you're not into water sports, fish all day right off the covered deck. If you have a boat, there is a ramp within 100 yards of the house, and lots of great little fishing holes along the river and back into the cypress forest.

The River House has an outdoor grill. A bonfire is always fun in the cooler months, so sit back relax and enjoy the blaze in the fire pit steps from the house.

The River house is within 10 miles by boat or car to 8,000 acres of public hunting land: deer, squirrel, hog, duck, turkey, and alligator to name a few. You must have a TX hunting license and Type 2 permit. Also, be prepared to follow all TX game and wildlife laws for Marion and Harrison County.

We promise you will not be disappointed with the discovery of this off the beaten path cabin of solitude and good times!

**All rentals paid in full at the time reservations are made thru VRBO. Mandatory 30 day cancellation policy for full refund unless in special off-season bookings when times are reduced for cancellations ** SEE DETAILED DIRECTIONS FROM I-20 by clicking on 'view map'.

This was a great place for my son and I to spend a few days fishing hard. The back dock was great for keeping the boat in the water. Easy access to the boat launch at Backwater Jacks. Good restaurants nearby and the fire pit was close enough to keep an eye on the lines in the water while fishing from the dock. And it was an easy drive from DFW. I hope I get to come back soon. Big Cypress Bayou and Caddo Lake are beautiful and full of fish and gators.

Just as described Actually pictures don’t do it justiceWe have been looking for a quiet, peaceful place to come and enjoy the water and relax and recharge This is itWe love that it’s on the water. You can fish off the back deck or watch the birds and enjoy the outdoors in comfort. You can also dock your boat at the private dock. You have all the comfort of home here right on the water. The only problem is you have to leave it when your time is up. We rode in the boat and explored the lakes and sloughs surrounding this amazing area. It is breathtaking beautiful here. Also Coach is right there if you need anything at all he will help you with it. It is an beautiful place and we hated to leave it If you are looking for this look no further book a weekend and you will be hooked.

We have been coming to this area for over 30 years. Unfortunately, this cabin had a cluttered appearance. Looks like someone is living in the cabin with all their clothes in the closet. We had to throw away expired food left in the refrigerator, because it had not been cleaned out. We had to call the caretaker to spray the ant infestation in the kitchen. The DVD player did not work.The view was good, as we enjoyed spending time on the deck overlooking the bayou. The caretaker was friendly and positive about our concerns.

Fun Get Away

Was a good place to stay and get away.I hated not having a working bbq pit! There was lots of boats and jet skis racing up and down so that was aggravating while trying to fish. Coach was very friendly but I didn't like the fact that he lives there while its not rented. has his belongings

About the host

Host profile image
We have two children from my husband's first marriage and enjoy spending not only family time at the cabin, but also time alone. We hope you will enjoy the place. Anyone who spends time with us at the River wants to return. We hope you will too!!

Why they chose this property

We enjoy water sports. We enjoy fishing. We enjoy relaxing. This is a perfect spot for unwinding from the daily grind. It is easy access to Jefferson and to Shreveport if we want to pick up the pace a little. We can take our boat into Jefferson and park at the riverbank and shop and eat! Too many great reasons to list.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy taking a boat ride into Jefferson for breakfast on Sundays. We enjoy the secluded area we live in. We have a boating ramp that is within 100 yards of our home, so we have a great time on the water. We can fish right off of our deck because the cabin was built on the riverbank and much, much more.
