About this property
Shrug off the hustle of the new year, with a quiet stay on the Brazos.
This cozy cabin, "Stillwaters on the Brazos", awaits you on the Clear Fork of the beautiful Brazos River. With 2 bedrooms featuring a queen bed and a bunk room (with 4 twin beds and a full bed), this delightful retreat offers all the comforts of home, while the charm of the country. Enjoy the convenience of WiFi, a washer/dryer, AC, and heating during your stay. The 2 bathrooms come equipped with a all you will need - soap, shampoos, hair dryer, as well as an outdoor shower! Escape to this welcoming cabin and experience the very best of true country living.
The stock tank pool is cool all summer and is the perfect place to chill after a busy day on the river, but is only functional from late April-September. You could be honing your archery skills, swinging on the swings, playing in the 2 story playhouse, or fishing all day! And if you want to try your luck on Possum Kingdom Lake, it’s only about a half hour away!
Bring out your glass of wine or beer and listen to the quiet. Kayaks and a canoe offer a close up view of the river, if you choose to put those in. There is no boat ramp, so please choose your "put-in" carefully.
Remember, this is in the COUNTRY and that brings a slew of animals and dangers with it. Country life has bugs and flying insects quite often! We see deer (but hunting is not allowed), feral pigs, turkeys, great-horned owls, occasional bobcats, and the night sounds are a wonder to behold. The stars shine bright, when there are no city lights to interfere. The river can be dangerous and always wear life jackets when on the Brazos (there are several at the property.)
There are enough beds for 10, but that may be too many people for this space. 7-8 people would be the maximum for comfortable sleeping arrangements.
If you are mobility impaired, this may not be the place for you, as there are many stairs to get into the cabin, or down to the fishing landing. Also, our family has a kitty that sometimes comes with us to Stillwaters, so if you are highly allergic.... think again. If you choose to get in or on the river, remember that comes at your own risk. You will assume those risks and have the responsibility of any accidents or incidents that occur because of those actions. You will not hold the owner responsible for any incidents or accidents outside or inside the home. Your confirmation below, indicates that you have read and agree to those stipulations. There is a security camera that is pointed out at the river and will be easy to find, as well as the location will be in the Welcome Packet at Stillwaters.

About the host
Hosted by Lana K. Hoover
Five years ago, while swimming laps in a pool, I thought of “getting away” from the hustle and bustle of city living… somewhere that I could share with family, friends, and even new families. We are all so busy and often yearn for somewhere you can see the stars, listen to coyotes, and hear the fish flop. Once I saw this land and the river, I had to get it!
Why they chose this property
I asked the prior owner to show me the 8 acres on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River. He drove me here in his very sturdy 4 wheeler and I took one look at the river and knew this could be my dream.
What makes this property unique
I’ve carved Stillwaters out of nothing… I bought it with no water, electricity, or septic system in place. My son-in-law drew up my simple plans, and I hired a contractor to make it as I envisioned. It’s still a “wild” place, but one that is fun, cozy, and enjoyable for all!
