About Barbara
I discovered Lake Whitney with some friends of mine some 20 years ago. I fell in Love with it's Natural & Unspoiled Beauty. The Cliffs & Limestone Rocks are great for fishing Or Diving. The Lake is so Clean & Clear. The Fishing is Great, Boating, Skying is also Great. You can Ski forever & never see any other Boats. Lake Whitney is a well kept Secret. Its has some very nice State Parks & Camping sites.I have some other friends that invited me to Lake Whitney for July 4th Holiday. I was hooked I was determined to find me a place. It is very hard to find a Water Front Lake House you can actually walk down to the water, most are Cliff Hanging Lots which are Beautiful to, but I wanted to be able to walk down to the Water. I bought the Lake House over 10 Years ago. I have a Great View & it is very nice & peaceful. It has all been updated with 45' Deck.I plan to retire there some day.. .
Barbara purchased this house in 1991

They even have Equestrian Trails for Horseback riding.It is vey close to Dallas/Ft Worth area little over 1 Hour Drive to the Metroplex.
What makes this house unique
When you pull into the driveway you see the Lake & you begin to relax. It has a Great View of Lake Whitney from the 45' Deck & every room in the Lake Home.The Neighborhood is a nice place to walk & watch the Squirrels, Birds chirping. You can actually see the Falling Stars in the Black Clear Sky at night.

Good time
House works for a large group. Barbara is excellent. We had a great time!
Great Escape
We enjoyed our weekend at the home. it was great to have a place to escape the heat after boating all day. The view of the sunsets from the deck was incredible.
Camp LaLa 2017
Perfect place for our yearly family weekend at the lake. Unusual for Lake Whitney properties to have direct lake access. Not an easy walk down to the lake, but very doable for all in our group. Place to tie up boat in a cove and to launch kayaks and perfect place for kids to swim. House was comfortable and well equipped. Hot, hot summer days, but we were cool the whole time. Had a great time! Highly recommend this place.
great place, very reponsive
House had plenty of sleeping. Back porch is great. Yes, it is a bit steep to get down to the beach area, mostly for older adults or disabilities. That being said, once you are down there it is one of the best swimming/fishing/ and all around coves I have been to. You have a huge cove seemingly to yourself, lined with a rock ledge that you can walk and swim off of. Amazing place to spend the day and the kids had a blast..
Awesome Sunsets & View of Lake Whitney!
We had a very relaxing time on the Big Deck just to sit out enjoy the Sun, read a book or just watch Sunset. We loved the Kitchen, fully stocked with Lots of Pots & Pans. Plenty of staple items & even my Favorite Keurig Coffee maker.
We were able to shoot Fireworks at the beach area since it was a Holiday & buy Fireworks up by the Store. The Children really enjoyed that. We also Fished from the Rock Ledge & caught some fish.We will rent a Boat next time or hire the Fishing Guide.
The Lake House has plenty of Beds & Sun Room Bedroom will sleep up to 8-10 people. The upstairs Bedroom is really nice with Kitchenette, Frig, Wet Bar, Sofa & Balcony for Private View of the Lake.. We will go back, everyone enjoyed Very much.
Best Christmas
We had a Great time with our Family at Christmas with lots of space in the Kitchen for Cooking and plenty of Large Utensils for cooking Christmas Dinner. The House was very clean & plenty of towels for everyone.We Loved the Big wood deck for Relaxing & watching Sunsets.We even got to Smoke our Turkey on the Big Smoker, It was like Old times to get together for Christmas & Santa did find us there.. The Guys did get to play Golf at White Bluff very nice Club.We hope to get together here again in the Summer, lake Whitney is such a Beautiful lake.There was also a fenced yard for our Pets that they loved. Barbra was very helpful anytime we talked to her. We will go back for for the Summer..
