We recently stayed at Serpent Lake Cabin for a friends 40th birthday. We absolutely LOVED the cabin. Not only was it clean, had wonderful amenities and Brett was wonderful to work with, but the location was amazing. Just a short 8 minute drive from downtown Crosby, you really can have everything you need right there! Even though it rained during our stay, the cabin layout made it so easy for all 9 of us to hang out together the whole time indoors. We loved it so much we want to book a trip back there in the summertime!!
Great place for a multigenerational family vacation!
From 18 month old Jace to 81 year old great grandpa, 13 of us gathered for a quick vacation. There was plenty of room for everyone. The lake home is beautiful with expansive grounds and gardents, and in a perfect location. We especially enjoyed the paddleboard, kayak, paddle boat, several 72" TVs, good Wi-Fi, and the fact that a large grocery & wine store was only 4 miles away. Sunsets were spectacular! Loved the Depot Museum in nearby Crosby! The deck overlooking the lake was a hit too!
