Caddo lake memories

We really enjoyed our stay at this rental property. The kayaks were in great condition and taking them out on beautiful Caddo lake, paddling in between the mysterious Cypress trees amongst white water lilies is not to be missed! It’s a remote spot and we appreciated that the owner had thought of little things - dish soap, laundry pods etc. that not all rentals come stocked with. Close to the state park for lovely hiking, overall recommend this for a great and adventurous get away from city life!

Directions for parking not clear. People already there tried to take our space and theirs, rude. Bathtub had dead bugs and roach eggs. The tub is an accident waiting to happen. The old style, no mat, nothing, I almost fell the first time I used it, SUPER SLICK! I sent a message to the owner telling her how dangerous it was, she said they’d bring a mat, never happened, no follow up. The air conditioner in the bedroom was absolutely filthy, full of dust, buttons pushed so many times they broke inward. I took pictures of it, it was so bad. For some reason I was blocked from leaving a review on the site. I even called the site managers to ask why, mainly I was afraid of the shower situation for the next guests, especially seniors. View was nice, but not worth it.
