About this property

Rustic cabin over looking Cordell Hull Lake

This is a great place to get away for peace and quiet! It is also within a few steps to the water!! Great for fishing, kayaking, and a mile to a boat ramp! It is located a half mile to Salt Lick Campgrounds! This is a very old log home rebuilt in 2017. If you like rustic and being in the country this is the cabin for you! The cabin has a breath taking view of water!! You can see animals right from the front porch, such as, deer and lots more!!

What a magical place to stay! With an amazing view of the river from the front porch to our lovely neighbor, we lovingly named Mr. Ed (a beautiful white horse), it was one of the most relaxing times! They had even decorated the entrance of the property! If you need a quiet place to stay away from all the noise I definitely recommend! We also just loved the small town of Gainesboro everyone was so welcoming! Only about 10 minutes from the cabin.
