About this property

Cozy Cabin with Screened Porch and Fishing Dock on Lake D'Arbonne

This is our Happy Place, and we would love to share it with you. Our cozy hilltop cabin is nestled in a quiet cove on Lake D'Arbonne, just off what the locals call "Big Lake", with a view of the Spillway. We have beautiful lake views from almost every room in the house. You'll want to bring your fishing gear and your favorite fishing buddy to enjoy bringing in the dock. Our screened porch is perfect for drinking your morning coffee with a view, or for an evening card game with friends. An additional outdoor patio is covered and shaded, perfect for barbecuing or relaxing outdoors in the shade. Nearby is our firepit where you can roast marshmallows with a view of the lake.
Our three bedroom cabin is thoughtfully furnished and stocked to make your getaway as comfortable as possible. From cozy throws, games and puzzles, and a fully stocked kitchen, you will find everything you need to relax and enjoy your time at the lake. We have High Speed Internet so you can stay connected and a Roku TV so you can relax and watch movies with your family.
We have one covered parking spot to keep your vehicle or boat covered from the elements. We have room for two additional boat trailers, and then a u-shaped driveway that will accommodate 3-4 cars.
Just 8 minutes from Farmerville, 10 minutes from the Marina, you will love our location. As experienced local hosts, we are always glad to tell you about our favorite places to eat and shop. We are responsive and helpful hosts who love making sure our guests have a wonderful time at the lake. Come and enjoy our happy place!

The view is spectacular. It is an older house but so comfortable and cozy. The area can’t be any better. Woods out the front and lake out the back it was great. Fishing was good and dogs were welcome. Lots of room to roam. I would recommend and stay again if back in area.

Peaceful Lake Getaway

perhaps the nicest thing about this well-equipped peaceful retreat is the fact that they captured the essence of a home, a lake retreat, rather than a sterile hotel room.

Nice cabin, loved family photos. Perfect setting.Very restful atmosphere.Recommend: Better outdoor lighting by the driveway (hard for older folks to see when unloading in the dark) and a reflective sign for cabin off of the main road would be helpful. : ) please.
