About this property

One of a Kind-Get Away/Big Cypress Bayou Near Jefferson&Caddo

One of a kind retreat for small families, a romantic get away for two, or fishing/hunting lodge.

This property is built over Big Cypress Bayou river which is 3.3 miles from CADDO Lake, 10 minutes from Historic Jefferson, 20 minutes from old money oil town of Marshall, AND 30 minutes from the wide awake Casino town of Shreveport, LA.

The River House is on a private road which lends to peace and tranquility. Great access to the river for amazing water skiing, jet skiing, and boating awaits. If you're not into water sports, fish all day right off the covered deck. If you have a boat, there is a ramp within 100 yards of the house, and lots of great little fishing holes along the river and back into the cypress forest.

The River House has an outdoor grill. A bonfire is always fun in the cooler months, so sit back relax and enjoy the blaze in the fire pit steps from the house.

The River house is within 10 miles by boat or car to 8,000 acres of public hunting land: deer, squirrel, hog, duck, turkey, and alligator to name a few. You must have a TX hunting license and Type 2 permit. Also, be prepared to follow all TX game and wildlife laws for Marion and Harrison County.

We promise you will not be disappointed with the discovery of this off the beaten path cabin of solitude and good times!

**All rentals paid in full at the time reservations are made thru VRBO. Mandatory 30 day cancellation policy for full refund unless in special off-season bookings when times are reduced for cancellations ** SEE DETAILED DIRECTIONS FROM I-20 by clicking on 'view map'.

The view from the balcony on Big Cypress Bayou is phenomenal. The host was gracious and made certain we had everything we needed. We were in town for an event in Jefferson. The location is convenient. We want to go back for a week of relaxation, so we can fully enjoy the serenity of this secluded cabin. Thanks for hosting us!

This place was absolutely enchanting! The cabin is the perfect waterfront setup for avid fishermen and naturalists. The host “Coach” is one of a kind and will set you up with everything you need. His hospitality and knowledge of the area is unmatched. I just left yesterday and I already miss this place. Can’t wait to go back!!

We booked this property due to being on the water and pet-friendly. Accommodations were perfect for us and dogs. Check-in was quick and even allowed early arrival due to storms moving in the next day. We spent most of our time, even during the rainstorms, on the deck. Cabin was cozy and bed was comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Will definately keep this on our "let's go again" list!

This was a great place for my son and I to spend a few days fishing hard. The back dock was great for keeping the boat in the water. Easy access to the boat launch at Backwater Jacks. Good restaurants nearby and the fire pit was close enough to keep an eye on the lines in the water while fishing from the dock. And it was an easy drive from DFW. I hope I get to come back soon. Big Cypress Bayou and Caddo Lake are beautiful and full of fish and gators.

About the host

Hosted by Randy and Holley Brown

Host profile image
We have two children from my husband's first marriage and enjoy spending not only family time at the cabin, but also time alone. We hope you will enjoy the place. Anyone who spends time with us at the River wants to return. We hope you will too!!

Why they chose this property

We enjoy water sports. We enjoy fishing. We enjoy relaxing. This is a perfect spot for unwinding from the daily grind. It is easy access to Jefferson and to Shreveport if we want to pick up the pace a little. We can take our boat into Jefferson and park at the riverbank and shop and eat! Too many great reasons to list.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy taking a boat ride into Jefferson for breakfast on Sundays. We enjoy the secluded area we live in. We have a boating ramp that is within 100 yards of our home, so we have a great time on the water. We can fish right off of our deck because the cabin was built on the riverbank and much, much more.
