About this property
Castaway Cottage, where tranquility and relaxation are just a heartbeat away.
Escape the hustle and bustle with a serene lakeside retreat! This charming 3-bedroom home offers breathtaking views, a spacious deck, and a private pier for your morning coffee and evening sunsets. Enjoy a day of fishing right off the pier, surrounded by stunning scenery. With a king bed in Bedroom 1 and queen beds in Bedrooms 2 and 3, this cozy getaway comfortably sleeps 6. We offer the convenience of early check-in and late check-out when available. We will notify guests when the house is cleaned, sanitized, and ready for check-in, usually around noon. Enjoy YouTube TV, Roku TV, and Prime Video + more on 5 televisions for your entertainment.
The laundry room is fully equipped with a washer and dryer, along with complimentary washing liquid and dryer sheets. You'll also find games conveniently stored in the laundry room.
Welcome to the Solarium on the Pier, where relaxation begins.
Whether you're seeking a tranquil moment alone or a delightful day with friends, our solarium offers the perfect setting. Sip on refreshing beverages, indulge in light snacks, and watch the sunset as the gentle breeze rejuvenates your senses.
The backyard porch is screened in, allowing you to relax outside at any time. It is equipped with a hanging heater and two fans to ensure your comfort.
In the backyard, you'll find swings for your enjoyment. The firepit is a perfect spot to unwind, and we provide starter logs in the laundry room for your convenience.
Here are some fishing tips: Breams or bluegill and crappie tend to gather under the cypress trees on both sides of the pier. Use worms or crickets as bait, ensuring the tip of the hook is not showing. Perch, bass, and bowfin prefer shiners (minnows) or crickets. Catfish and alligator gar are not picky eaters and will go for anything. Lake St. Joseph is home to a variety of fish species.
In the town of Newellton, you'll find stores such as Family Dollar, Dollar General, and Britt's Pharmacy, offering food options since the nearest grocery store, Mac's Fresh Market in St. Joseph, is 14.9 miles away. The Tensas Wildlife Refuge is just 10 miles away, providing a great opportunity to explore nature.
