About this property

The Lake House on Lake Limestone

We have been enjoying The Lake House on Lake Limestone since we built it in 2004. We moved here full time when my husband retired in 2014. We love the house so much; we have decided to share it with you. We do still live on the property and the dock is shared with the owners.

The Lake House is 1800 sq. ft. with four bedrooms that sleep a total of 13 people. It has two baths, a kitchen and a living area. In the winter of 2024 we renovated the house. Lake Limestone is centrally located with easy access to Houston, Dallas, and Austin. All are about 2 to 2 1/2 hours away. The lake is famous for its fishing, hosting many fishing tournaments a year.

The house is perfect for family reunions, weekend getaways, or getting together with friends. With eight beds, there is plenty of room for everyone. Although the inside is nice and roomy, you will find yourself spending most of your time outside on the large porch, in the beautiful lawn, or out on the boat dock. The water is just a few yards in front of the house with a gradual slope for going swimming. Enjoy the private dock (sometimes shared with owners) where you can jump off the diving board, fish, sunbath or just relax and enjoy the scenery.

The Lake House is located on a quiet cove where you are welcome to bring your boat or Jet Ski, with plenty of room to moor on the dock or pull up on shore. We do have neighbors on both sides, but none are permanent residents. The dock also has a sink to clean the fish you catch which may include catfish, bass, crappie and several others. There is also plenty of waterfowl to watch and lots of wildlife around, to include deer, hogs, squirrels, raccoons, armadillos, etc. This is in the country so please expect to see some critters and bugs. We do have a fire pit where you can roast marshmallows or just sit by the fire. We have added a sitting area with lighting around the fire pit to enjoy the evenings by the lake. A total must while you are here is the beautiful sunset every evening!

We do offer a 30 amp RV spot for an additional fee of $75 a night if your group is too big for the house.

Whether you are here to fish, enjoy water activities, or just want to relax and enjoy the peaceful, beautiful surroundings - this is the place to be!

Beautiful home on Lake Limestone
We rented this home for a high school fishing tournament on Lake Limestone. The property was lovely and clean. The back porch overlooking the lake was the best part! Michelle was a wonderful host and was very responsive to any questions we had.

Good Getaway
Took three of our children, spouses and three grandkids to meet other family at Lake Limestone. We live in McKinney, TX so it was about a 2.5hr drive each way. The Lakehouse was as advertised, very clean and extremely well appointed. The dock was set up great for a little fishing where the grandkids all caught something! Our host even came down on Saturday and delivered firewood for us after we asked if we could get some from a nearby brush pile. We were quite satisfied with our stay - would definitely recommend,

Great Location Between Dallas and Houston
We had a mixed group from Dallas and Houston, and this served as a centralized location for us to meet up at. Plenty of space for all 8 of us, especially loved the grill. Very underrated point is the house stayed very cool and comfortable.

This place was great
Some buddies and I rented the cabin for the weekend, and it was amazing. It was exactly what we were looking for when I booked it. Michelle was great and quick to respond. Highly recommended.

Lake Limestone home
Our family stayed at Michelle’s property for the weekend of my mother-in-law’s funeral. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable, and the setting on the water was nice as we gathered on the porch, spent time together and talked.
