Wonderful 13 Acre East Texas Getaway near Canton on 3 Stocked Ponds!

13 Acre Retreat an hour outside of Dallas with 3 Fishing Ponds stocked with Bass, Blue Gill, Catfish and Crappie! Secluded and quite, yet only 10 miles to Canton and First Monday Trade Days.

Antique and art shopping in nearby Canton and other charming cities like Ben Wheeler and Edom (with its thriving art community).

Charming cabin reminiscent of an old schoolhouse can sleep up to 8 guests on 2 floors. First floor has a separate bedroom with queen bed and queen size pullout sofa, as well as private bath with shower, spacious living room with tv, and fully stocked kitchen. Upstairs is accessed through a separate outside entrance for another family or teenage kids, and also includes a private bedroom with king bed, queen size pull out sofa, private bath with tub, stocked kitchen and large living space with large screen tv.

Better than expected

It would be hard to find a better setting than this cabin on the water’s edge. Every view is better than you imagined and there’s even an upper deck to see the stars. The cabin was clean and well prepared for our stay and the beds were extremely comfortable. My son and his friends didn’t want to leave which says it all.

Family Vacation

If you’re looking for a family vacation rental, this is the place. There are plenty things to do on the property, including fishing, outdoor games, barbecue, out door fire pit, picnics or just going on a nature walk. We took full advantage of everything the property has to offer. Looking forward to booking our next vacation day.

Perfect, again!

Friends and I stayed here last year, it was awesome! And just as great this year! Location is secluded, yet close to town. Spent the mornings on the deck overlooking the lake, the birdwatching was amazing, our bird app, Merlin, identified over 31 different birds. The whistling ducks were seen many times. The house has everything you could need! Highly recommend!

Cabin was neat and tidy, but not clean. Filthy sinks, dirty dishes, molding coffee grounds in coffee maker, tv screen and windows all needed to be cleaned. Nothing appeared to be wiped down, like counters, sinks, table, refrigerator, stove top… Overall I felt unclean all weekend. There was only one very old remote for the tv ( could not read writing on remote) for both units and it didn’t work.( I did swap batteries with AC remote in the room, but still the one remote wouldn’t turn on either tv) Thankfully the tv was Roku and I could use my phone. There were no keys in lock box when arrived but host was quick to respond with directions for a spare key close by. I was alone and only used the downstairs unit so I can not respond to the upstairs. The property was neatly maintained, very quiet and pretty. I was a little put off that there was no “chair” to sit on indoors. Only an old couch( dirty and well used) and two small wooden benches meant for dining. Nice place, but I recommend a new cleaning company.

Great place to stay

House is clean and beautiful. The pier is a great place to fishing. We got 9 sun fish in 1 hour. Fish is small so we released them.

Fishing heaven!

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this charming cabin over Spring Break with 3 boys under the age of 10! The comfort and amenities exceeded our expectations, making it the perfect getaway. One of the highlights of our trip was the incredible fishing experience right off the cabin deck. The proximity to the water allowed us to cast our lines just steps from the front door, and we were thrilled to catch some nice-sized largemouth bass without having to venture far. The peaceful and picturesque setting added to the overall enjoyment, creating unforgettable memories. Thank you for providing such a wonderful escape—we can't wait to return!
