About this property

Blue Moon Cove is a beautifully remodeled Lake House in one of the most beautiful and safest neighborhoods on the lake. You'll love the scenic drive into our community! The main house has a big living room with a sectional couch to watch the big game. 5 Bedrooms with 1 King bed and an ensuite bathroom, 2 More bedrooms include Queens with access to a full bathroom, 1 Queen bedroom with ensuite half bath and also a bunk room with twin over full bunks and a futon for the kiddos. The kitchen is fully equipped for family meals.

The lake is directly in your back yard with a boathouse if you are inclined to bring your own boat or PWCs. We have cleats for you to tie up during your stay. Fishing in our cove is excellent if you wish to try it from our boathouse. Enjoy the firepit for smores and story telling and feel free to grill up the fish you catch on the gas grill (we supply the propane but you are responsible for cleaning the grill after use). We also have two kayaks available for your enjoyment. In the morning you'll love enjoying coffee on the screened in porch while watching our cove residents -two white herons - hunt for fish. Washer and dryer is available.

Great location on a cove.

Great property. House is spacious, kitchen well stocked. Fabulous yard and both indoor and outdoor patios and porches. Loved our morning coffee outside with family members. Location on the cove is great for paddle boarding.

Winter golf

My brother and I got out of Wisconsin for warmer weather and no snow so we could golf. We have some cousins and friends in the Dallas area; thus the choice of location. The property worked out very well for us.

Perfect short getaway

We had three families together for a short getaway at the lake. This home had plenty of bedrooms to accommodate all of us. The home was clean and had everything we needed. The location was great too. The community boat ramp was close to we could launch a boat within a short walk from the home. Would highly recommend this home

The only negative about our stay had NOTHING to do with the rental. It had to so with the drought and there not being water. But, we absolutely LOVED THE PROPERTY!

Great Family Weekend!

We had such a great stay at Blue Moon Cove! We take an annual lake trip every year with extended family and this place worked perfectly for all our needs. The only thing to note is that the part of the lake that this house backs up to is very narrow and shallow. Due to the drought Texas has experienced it was completely dried up. We had to leave the property to do any sort of fishing or lake activities which wasn’t ideal. We’d gladly stay here again, but would just make sure the lake levels are back up before doing so!

Perfect house for a large family gathering

We ended up using all the rooms and 7 people found it very comfortable - I imagine double that number would still be fine if not all adults. We spent little time in the house other than sleeping and breakfast but we didn't notice anything missing. We did comment on the lack of hanging space in the master bedroom as the owners keep the closet locked for their own stuff. Remember to take your own soap and shampoo but there are plenty of towels. One last thing - when parking beware the old oak tree with a lot of dead branches and park away from that - we were lucky not to end up with a big bill for damage to our rental car from branches that fell just inches away. There's a lot of room in the drive though.

Lake House Retreat

The house was plenty big enough for the 6 of us and our two cars, mornings on the screened in porch were tranquil, and evenings on the deck were nice and relaxing. We did a lot of our cooking while there, and the kitchen was well equipped! Altogether couldn't have asked for a better stay!

Great House Great Location

We had a family birthday celebration for several family members and enjoyed our stay immensely. After a few hiccups in the beginning, we were able to settle in and enjoy our stay. It was a great family vacation and the house comfortably accommodated all of us.

Beautiful Spacious Lake house for a Big Group

We rented this beautiful home for my daughter’s sweet 16. Four adults and 8 teens. The house was a perfect fit. The host was very responsive and easy to to book with. Check-in was very easy and she added extra touches to our trip. The house has just been remodeled and it’s adorable. The layout of the house works great for big groups. Plenty of beds that are very comfortable and nice smelling fresh sheets. Kitchen has everything you need to make a great meal. The house during my stay had the basics like salt and pepper. It also had paper towels, plenty trash bags , dishwasher detergent, etc. Bathrooms had great pressure and hot water. Bring your own shampoo and soap. NONE of the teens did. Plenty of towels were available. A/C worked great as it was very hot and humid during our stay. It’s been raining a lot so mosquitoes were a small issue at dusk. But the screened in porch was perfect. We loved having coffee in the morning there. The kayaks were a hit for the teens. Only negative thing about the property is that it’s on an inlet. It’s nice and quiet, but my teens wanted a big dock they could layout on and jump from like some other properties have. It’s great for families with small kids. Grocery stores and other stores are near by. It was a great house for my daughter’s sweet 16. The owners did a great job in updating this lake house.

Family getaway for a 50th birthday and Mother’s Day. Property is spacious with plenty of sleeping accommodations. Very clean & well stocked. Property managers responsive and easy to deal with. House is super cute and the backyard is an amazing place to just hangout and relax. Thoroughly enjoyed the large deck and fire pit. Would highly recommend and we will be back!

Ladies of Leisure Weekend

From the moment of our arrival we just knew that this vacation would exceed our expectations. The property was clean, well kept and larger than expected. Lots of touches that made us feel welcome. Throws for the sofa, a beautiful covered patio overlooking the tranquil water and more towels than the ladies could use. The beds and bedding were all very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with all the needed utensils and small appliances. My only suggestion is to have a hairdryer We were thankful one of the ladies brought her own. We are already talking about our next trip. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Heather

We are a family of 7 from North Dallas. We love family time, boating, sun and fun. Blue Moon Cove provides the best of all these things!

Why they chose this property

This property offers space for larger groups and families so they can spend time together but not be living right on top of one another. We love the beautiful cove our home sits on.... So much wildlife and friendly neighbors who are quiet, but also enjoy a good time and don't disparage others for enjoying themselves. The water is protected and calm, thus safe for swimming and easier for docking the boat than the busier water.
