Thank you for your 5 Star review! I’m sorry about the boat parking… we can fit 2 quite easily but more than that becomes tricky. Thank you for being an exemplary guest.. we hope to see you back!

Perfect weekend getaway, very clean. The only thing that was bad was they ate on a water well an you have to preserve the water. You only take showers no baths. It’s not on the water so we had our little kids a slip and slide to play to keep them busy and manager was very nice but told us we had to be mindful on water use. The grill area outside was very nice an setting on the large back porch was relaxing

Hi Carrie, thank you so much for your 5 Star Review! The property is on a water well so continuous water usage for a slip and slide for an extended amount of time would be too much. Thank you for understanding. We hope to see you back!

Plenty of room for 9 adults, next to the bait shop and down the road from the two boat ramps and park at the lake. The back porch is nice and peaceful in the morning to sit and have a cup of coffee or two.

Last Summer Hoo-Rah

We had a fantastic time at this rental, which truly has everything you need. If you're searching for a peaceful spot by the lake, away from a busy boat ramp, this is the perfect choice. The rental offers ample space and multiple rooms, making it ideal for large families. It also includes covered parking and options for outdoor grilling. Two stores are conveniently located within a quarter-mile, just a mile and a half from the Castle Boykin boat ramp.

Great Place to Stay

I was very impressed with the accomodations. I travel quite a bit for fishing trips, and the homes that I rent are hit and miss when it comes to being able to have the room to park my truck and boat and also have electrical hook ups to plug in the battery charger for the boat. This property was perfect. The house was spacious with enough rooom to easily sleep four people or more. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to Lake Sam Rayburn.

Outstanding!!

Everything is just like advertised. Outstanding property. % STARS!!! The only thing that could make even better is a swing at the end of the porch, for resting at the end of the day. Very quiet neighborhood and easy drive to Zavalla. Will be staying here again when I go back to Sam Rayburn.

This place was a Gem!!

We had a fantastic time. The host Sonya was amazing to work with. Very communicative throughout the stay. Even checked in to see how things were going. We came for a quick weekend to fish on Sam Rayburn. We wish we would have had longer just to be able to relax in the house. It was so clean and comfortable. Had everything we needed! Location was fantastic. So close to the “mini” store and a mile from the launch site. And only a few miles to Zavalla where there is a Brookshire Brothers and a Dollar General. We had 8 in our party and it was the perfect size. Slept everyone comfortably. Couch was nice and roomy too, enough seating for all of us which is usually hard to find. We will be back again staying longer next time. The only thing missing if you’re looking for a complete pkg is a place to swim and nearby fishing for kids. But knowing that, we still give it 5 stars and will be coming back!! Thanks Sonya for everything!
