Lake Whitney Mid-Century Modern Retreat 40 miles from Waco ideal for families!

We rented this cabin for my sisters family and my family to stay in while we attended a family reunion nearby. The space was perfect for what we needed. My wife and I took one bedroom on the main floor and put the little kids that went to bed early in the other. My sister and her husband took the downstairs bedroom and the big kids that stayed up late slept on the bed and couches in the game room. It allowed the adults to stay up playing games and visiting while the kids watched tv and hung out downstairs. The home was comfortable for two families and had a gorgeous view. We saw dozens of deer in the neighborhood and hummingbirds visited the porch feeders daily. The A/C unit in the game room did an excellent job keeping the room cool. We had to move some breakable items out of the reach of little hands, but that was minimal. The spare fridge in the game room came in really handy. Clean up instructions were minimal at the end of the weekend. All in all, the Johnson's do a great job making this an easy, comfortable and affordable place to stay.

The whole family enjoyed staying at this home near the lake. Modern, clean and well stocked. Plenty of space for everyone. We couldn't figure out the outside grill, but cooked everything fine indoors where it was much cooler. The deck was perfect for watching the hawks flying over the canyons and counting the endless stars. We enjoyed our morning hikes in the neighborhood and were awed by the view of the lake, coves and more canyons. The swimming cove was convenient, refreshing and fun to watch the cliff jumpers. The drive to the marina for our boat rental was a little long, but we enjoyed our time on the lake and the service there was great. In the evenings we enjoyed counting all the deer feeding in the neighborhood. The downstairs Man Cave was a great fit for our teenagers. If there would have been a pool table or ping pong table (plenty of room for it), it would have been perfect.

We had a great weekend on the lake, the house was ideally located near the cliffs, swimming areas, and hiking. Also a short trip to kayak the brazos below the dam. Would highly recommend.

Was a beautiful location. Very quiet and peaceful. Ample amenities. Would have given 5 stars except for a couple of items: 1) water pressure in downstairs shower was very low, & 2) some of the furniture needs attention. Otherwise our family had a wonderful experience and the owners were very accommodating. Would definitely go again if down that way.

The house was so amazing... the owner was super nice and very informative. Would HIGHLY reccomend!
