Enjoy your stay in this fully equipped tiny house cabin on the lake, with the Brazos River across the street. A wonderful tiny house featured on the DIY Network’s: “Texas Flip N Move.” Go fishing in the lake from the backyard dock, or launch a boat into the river at the boat ramp up the street. Roast marshmallows around the fire pit, cook burgers on the gas grill, have a picnic at your outdoor picnic table. Later, enjoy a glass of wine at sunset on the covered porch or on the shaded rockers by the dock. Located just 9.5 miles from the beautiful Granbury town square.
Welcome to the “Catch N’ Relax Cabin” on the Lake—one of the three amazing rentals available at the “Fin-Tastic Retreat.” Your cabin is equipped with WiFi, and the smart TV allows you to stream your favorite shows. As your host, my goal is to ensure you have a wonderful and memorable stay.
You have access to all the areas of the property, including the fire pit, and floating dock. Feel free to fish along the property’s lake shoreline and dock, or in the river from the community park pier up the street. Wood for the fire pit is available next to the shed behind your cabin, fire starter blocks and lighters are also available in your cabin, and marshmallow roasting skewers are on your gas grill. Cornhole boards and bags are available for you to play, as well as a two-person pedal boat for paddling on the serene water. If you need additional space, check out my “Keepin’ It Reel Cottage” and Cast N’ Cork Casita” listings right next door.
Off street parking is very convenient on your private driveway. If you wish to bring your boat, trailer parking is available next to the park and boat ramp up the street. A gate code for access to the ramp will be provided upon request.

Thank you for the wonderful review Maria. It was really nice hosting you and your daughter. I’m very happy to know y’all enjoyed the paddle boat, and had a great time during your stay. You are always welcome back, and I look forward to an opportunity to host you again.
Thank you for the great review Gary! I’m happy you and your son were able to have a good time at the retreat. I look forward to an opportunity to host you again.
Your review made me smile John! Thank you so much. I was very happy to host you and your son. Best of luck with your fishing tournament! Hope to have the opportunity to host you again.
The tiny house was the perfect little place to stay for a get-away weekend. It is just the right size for two people and gave us that tiny house experience. The location right on the lake was beautiful and peaceful. We had plenty of room in the kitchen for some groceries and to make a couple of meals. Enjoyed a few hours in the Granbury square just 20 minutes away. The fire pit, hammock, swing, and two rocking chairs by the water lend themsleves to enjoying the peaceful view of the water, tree covered hill backdrop and God's amazing cloud formations in the sky!

Thank you so much for the fantastic and kind review Kay! It was an absolute pleasure hosting the two of you in the Cabin. I’m very happy to know you had a wonderful experience and pleasant stay. Y’all are always welcome.
Thank you for the fantastic review Shelly, and for celebrating Bill’s birthday at the cabin! I’m happy to know you two had a great time and were able to catch a nice catfish from the backyard. Y’all are welcome back anytime and I look forward to hosting you again.
This place was awesome! The perfect place to hole up for a few days. My husband and I needed some away, down time and it was perfect! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook light meals, Alan was very accomodating and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. We really enjoyed watching movies in bed.

What a great review; thank you so much! It is wonderful to hear that you were able to get the relaxing downtime you were hoping for. You were great guests, and it was a pleasure to host the two of you. I hope to have the opportunity of hosting you again in the future.
An amazing location for relaxing! Just me and my best friend and a stack of books! We kayaked in the mornings, read in the afternoons and enjoyed the sunsets in the evenings. Was just what we needed! The tiny house met all of our needs!!! Alan was a great host!

Thank you so much for your fantastic review. I am very happy to know the two of you had such a wonderful time. You really found the magic of the retreat! I wholeheartedly look forward to an opportunity to host you again in the future.
We had a wonderful weekend visit at the tiny house. Fishing from the dock was very peaceful as well as exploring on the kayak. Neighbors across the water did get a little noisy, but were respectful and quieted down after 9:30 pm. I would absolutely stay here again.
Precious tiny house. Very clean. Good communication with owners and easy access. Location was a little off the beaten path and the road driving to the house was a little sketchy. The Homes adjacent and near the rental itself were fine -overall -a very good stay.

Thank you very much for your kind review. I’m happy to know you had a very good stay, and hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.
This was PERFECT - while everyone else had outrageous pricing during Spring Break, Alan kept his cost reasonable. My wife and I wanted something simple and planned on spending most of our time outside so the converted 5th wheel cabin was the perfect size. The pedal boat was a PHENOMENAL amenity and exactly what we wanted. We cooked all weekend and made use of the grill and kitchen (two-burner stovetop, toaster oven) and managed to do burgers, hot links, fajitas, deer meat / egg scramble for breakfast, and even an artisan pizza (pre-made / bought from HEB) on the grill.Keep in mind, my wife and I are one of those weird married couples that actually LIKE each other - so we had a great time in close-quarters. We put our phones on airplane mode and enjoyed hanging out and conversating all weekend with no distractions.This was a fantastic weekend get-a-way and we can't wait to rent out the entire property and bring our whole family - Alan was a remarkable host - we had ZERO issues the entire time. God Bless & thank y'all!

What a beautiful review Tony! Thank you so much. I am super happy to know the two of you had a perfect time. And, it is wonderful to hear that you want to come back to the Retreat with your family. You were a great guest, and I am happy to have had the opportunity to host you and your wife in the Cabin.
Everything was amazing. Easy to check in. Clean. Yard clean and grass cut. Lot of little extras. Snacks, water, etc...My only complaint was neighbors across street loud until very late. Thanks for a wonderful , mu h needed weekend break!

Thank you for your kind, wonderful review Deb. I’m very happy to know you were able to enjoy the relaxation you wanted. Sorry to hear about the noise from the neighbors across the street. Sounds like they got carried away over the holiday weekend. I will definitely address it with them. I hope to have the privilege of hosting you again next time you need to “get-away” and you’re in the Granbury area.
We were pleasantly surprised with the looks of this tiny house. We had not be in one before and were super how much room there was. The bathroom was bigger than we had imagined and the host made sure that we had everything we need. There was even a basket of items to make S’mores over the fire ring that is available. We will definitely stay there again when we return to the area!
All those property was well maintained, it was a little uncomfortable for me. I had to move a chair in from the patio to be able towatch TV

Thomas, thank you for the 10 out of 10 perfect ratings for cleanliness, check-in, communication, and listing accuracy. I am, however sorry to hear the tiny house was a little uncomfortable for you. Of course, by definition, a tiny house has limited space. The bench with pillows in the living area is meant to provide a comfortable seating area for watching TV. I do have another really nice, 1 bedroom VRBO cottage right next door that is more than double the size of the tiny house. I imagine you saw the Keepin’ It Reel Cottage on the Lake. I invite you to choose this one if I have the privilege to host you again. I’m happy to know you were able to get time to relax, and hope you had a safe return home.
