Bucks Head - A romantic forest getaway at Stag Leap Cabins!

My husband, Kirby, and I grew up in the Lufkin/Nacogdoches area, so this has always been home to us. We love to travel (especially to mountainous areas), but cruising the dirt roads in our Jeep is our favorite pastime. We started the cabin rental business shortly after we were married in 1993, and we love giving our guests a true East Texas experience.

Kirby's parents, Wayne and Mattie, own the property. They live in the main house, which also serves as the office. Mattie will most likely greet you upon arrival as she really enjoys meeting our guests.

Growing up in rural East Texas has given us a deep appreciation for natural settings. We love our tall pine and oak trees and the creek that runs through our property. Having a lot of acreage adds to our feeling of safety and privacy and gives us plenty of roaming room.

Being close to Lake Nacogdoches is a real plus, too. We have spent many summers boating on the lake with our children. Stag Leap is an easy drive to both Nacogdoches and Lufkin. Both towns have great downtown areas for shopping and special events, and each offers unique places to visit and explore. We definitely enjoy the small-town feel with many great shopping, dining, and entertainment options.

Stag Leap is on a 250+-acre woodland with secluded cabins scattered along the sandy-bottom Bonaldo Creek. We are the perfect getaway for a romantic weekend, family reunions, small group retreats, or extended stays. Our relaxing, cozy, home-like setting doesn’t compare to what you’ll find in a hotel!

We are close to numerous popular activities and attractions. We are ten minutes from historic downtown Nacogdoches with its brick streets, quaint antique shops, and numerous museums and historical landmarks. A short drive from our property is Stephen F. Austin University, home of the Lumberjacks and its state-recognized azalea gardens, the largest in Texas. Nacogdoches is also a prime destination for pickleball and disc golf enthusiasts, and fishermen love that we are just four miles from Lake Nacogdoches, which provides boating, swimming, fishing, and disc golf opportunities. As part of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Pineywood Trail, we also offer excellent opportunities for bird watching and other wildlife without ever leaving our property, so bring your binoculars!

We offer seven uniquely decorated cabins that are private and secluded from each other. Our cabins offer various sleeping accommodations and have fully stocked kitchens, free WiFi, satellite television, charcoal grills, and air conditioning. Most have whirlpool Jacuzzi tubs (inside or outside) and electric log fireplaces for a romantic ambience. All linens (sheets, towels, washcloths, dish towels) are provided.

A large, centrally located hot tub is available for all guests but may be reserved for private use for an hour at a time. We also offer other amenities and activities such as golf cart rentals, disc golf, basketball, horseshoes, and hiking.
