Springtime on the Brazos River?! Relax, reset, renew.
This cozy cabin, "Stillwaters on the Brazos", awaits you on the Clear Fork of the beautiful Brazos River. With 2 bedrooms featuring a queen bed and a bunk room (with 4 twin beds and a full bed), this delightful retreat offers all the comforts of home, while the charm of the country. Enjoy the convenience of WiFi, a washer/dryer, AC, and heating during your stay. The 2 bathrooms come equipped with a all you will need - soap, shampoos, hair dryer, as well as an outdoor shower! Escape to this welcoming cabin and experience the very best of true country living.
The stock tank pool is cool all summer and is the perfect place to chill after a busy day on the river, but is only functional from late April-September. You could be honing your archery skills, swinging on the swings, playing in the 2 story playhouse, or fishing all day! And if you want to try your luck on Possum Kingdom Lake, it’s only about a half hour away!
Bring out your glass of wine or beer and listen to the quiet. Kayaks and a canoe offer a close up view of the river, if you choose to put those in. There is no boat ramp, so please choose your "put-in" carefully.
Remember, this is in the COUNTRY and that brings a slew of animals and dangers with it. Country life has bugs and flying insects quite often! We see deer (but hunting is not allowed), feral pigs, turkeys, great-horned owls, occasional bobcats, and the night sounds are a wonder to behold. The stars shine bright, when there are no city lights to interfere. The river can be dangerous and always wear life jackets when on the Brazos (there are several at the property.)
There are enough beds for 10, but that may be too many people for this space. 7-8 people would be the maximum for comfortable sleeping arrangements.
If you are mobility impaired, this may not be the place for you, as there are many stairs to get into the cabin, or down to the fishing landing. Also, our family has a kitty that sometimes comes with us to Stillwaters, so if you are highly allergic.... think again. If you choose to get in or on the river, remember that comes at your own risk. You will assume those risks and have the responsibility of any accidents or incidents that occur because of those actions. You will not hold the owner responsible for any incidents or accidents outside or inside the home. Your confirmation below, indicates that you have read and agree to those stipulations. There is a security camera that is pointed out at the river and will be easy to find, as well as the location will be in the Welcome Packet at Stillwaters.

My family loved this cabin by the river, We spent most of the time fishing and kayaking and around the fire pit. Great little family getaway right before school starts.
Comfy cabin with great view of the water in a nicely secluded location. Wifi and TV setup gave our three year old something to do when he wasn't playing outside. The whole place had a relaxing atmosphere that immediately felt like home. This is our new first-choice for a remote family getaway.

Stillwaters is waiting when you’re ready to return!
We had a great time. The cabin is secluded and close to the river. Plenty of shade around the cabin was really nice. It was a much needed break from work and we could not have had a better experience. We hope to stay again in the future.
Our family needed a quiet getaway and this was the perfect spot! We were able to relax, play, grill and have the best time! Looking forward to our next stay!
We came to get away from the business of life and this was the perfect spot. The property owner was very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with cleanliness, but she was quick to remedy. Great for kids.
My husband and I stayed here after a very hectic family wedding in the city. It was the PERFECT respite! We visisted with my brother and his small family near by and their two small children had plenty of fun things to occupy them while the adults visited and relaxed. Our hoatess Lana saw to it the eveything was in working order and we are so grateful to have found such tranquil haven!a

I’m so glad you had a relaxing time at Stillwaters. Please come back anytime!
Our family of 7 really enjoyed our time here. Since we were right on the river, they fished and used the kayaks for hours. They loved the treehouse, swingsets and archery too. We spent one afternoon in Graham, which was just 10 minutes away. It was such great family time!

I’m so glad you enjoyed your time at Stillwaters! Come back anytime!
10/10 Caught several cat fish and gar. We used the kayaks and the canoe. Cabin is close to the water, clean, quiet, and comfy. 15-20 minutes from a store or to the state park. I’ll be back!!
We are the best time. The cabin was perfect for our needs and very clean! The kids wanted to go camping but we didn't want to quite do full camping. Lots of fishing by the river. Host had plenty of life jackets and the kayaks were so much fun. We'll definitely book again. Thanks!
We had a fantastic time at this cabin! Went with friends, their 5-year-old, and our 14-month-old, and it was perfect for everyone. The kids loved the swing, and the cabin was cozy with enough room for all of us. The river right down the cabin was a beautiful touch, and the open area was great for exploring and playing. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway! Host was great and was always accessible for communication.

I’m so glad you all had a great time! You were our inaugural guests, so I’m happy that you were happy. Come back anytime- Stillwaters will be waiting for you!
This is such a lovely cabin in the woods. If you are wanting to get away from it all, this is the place to go! The stock pool was so much fun for the kids and even my husband and I enjoyed soaking our feet. The scenery is absolutely lovely. The swing set was heavily used by my son who thought it was the coolest thing ever. We weren't able to get into the river, but that did not impact our stay at all. We fished, we explored, we played games and just got to spend time away from it all. Thank you again for a lovely stay!
This cabin was perfect for three adults - plenty of seating in the living room, two bedrooms with comfortable beds (queen size in one room, and a full bed plus 4 twin beds in upstairs bedroom), lots of space for things in the refrigerator. Tea kettle and coffee pot!
Loved spending time on the deck, relaxing, listening to the birds, watching the sunrise and sunsets from the deck as the Brazos River slowly drifted by. The reflections on the water were so beautiful - the sky, clouds, trees.... and the location was conveniently located for us to visit nearby Graham and Eliasville as well as South Bend.
We hope to return!
What a special cabin! As a family of 6, it can be a challenge to find a place that can accommodate all of us, but this place was perfect. I love the bunk bed situation upstairs. We could fit all the kids and their stuff without anyone having to sleep on the couch or floor. The hot water never ran out even with everyone showering, so I’m guessing it’s an inline unit. Genius.When we arrived the river was at high water so we were unable to kayak or fish, but possum kingdom is close and we brought our own kayaks and fishing gear, so we didn’t lose out on anything. The back patio was perfect to watch the flood recede. We say several snakes swimming in the river as well as a couple of gar and even a river otter (I swear it wasn’t a nutria!)My only comment to those who might stay here is that you might want to bring your own paper plates to avoid doing dishes after every meal because there is t a dishwasher.

So glad your family had fun! Please come back sometime this summer, so you can get out onto the river for some exploring!
It was a secluded, sweet area. We enjoyed the kayaks, time by the campfire and even ventured to town. The nice pizza place on the square was amazing. There were quite a few yellow jackets inside, mostly dying or dead.

I’m so glad you enjoyed yourselves!! I’ve spent thousands on the yellow jacket issue and will continue to do so, but I’m aware of it and it’s improving slowly with each exterminator visit.
Please come back anytime!!
About the host
Hosted by Lana K. Hoover
Five years ago, while swimming laps in a pool, I thought of “getting away” from the hustle and bustle of city living… somewhere that I could share with family, friends, and even new families. We are all so busy and often yearn for somewhere you can see the stars, listen to coyotes, and hear the fish flop. Once I saw this land and the river, I had to get it!
Why they chose this property
I asked the prior owner to show me the 8 acres on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River. He drove me here in his very sturdy 4 wheeler and I took one look at the river and knew this could be my dream.
What makes this property unique
I’ve carved Stillwaters out of nothing… I bought it with no water, electricity, or septic system in place. My son-in-law drew up my simple plans, and I hired a contractor to make it as I envisioned. It’s still a “wild” place, but one that is fun, cozy, and enjoyable for all!
