Cabin was clean and appealing. The cabin looked nice in the pictures when we booked but was even better in person. The host was responsive to any inquiries and responded quickly to any questions we had. We’ll definitely book here again.

Our host was great and communicated with us prior to our stay and during. The cabin was clean and fully stocked. We opted to cook while we were there and found everything we needed to make the meals we had planned. The neighborhood was quiet and we had plenty of time to relax and feel no stress. We will definitely be back in the future!

Me and my two kids loved our stay at Shady Shack. We felt very safe and comfortable. We loved how it felt secluded, but yet it was near all of the Hochatown attractions. My kids loved the hot tub and outdoor TV area. We also loved being able to build an outdoor fire. My kids are already asking to come back every year. Thank you, Chris!

Mother’s Day weekend getaway

Wife’s birthday fell on mother’s day this year so I surprised her with a weekend get away! This cabin was perfect for me, my wife, and our 10 year old daughter. Property manager was attentive and helpful. Cabin amenities are perfect, and the neighborhood is awesome! Can’t recommend enough, only complaint is we didn’t stay longer!

25th Anniversary

We really enjoyed The Shady Shack. Chris communicated with us and check in was easy. We enjoyed some much needed R&R. I lived in the hot tub and on the game playing Pac Man and Galaga. My husband did not want to leave the back deck and TV. Enjoyed the fireworks at Chocatow Landing and food at Hochatown Saloon!! Can't wait to stay here again!! Cabin was absolutely perfect!!

Cabin as great until check out and accused of damaging property. They even provided pictures to substantiate a false claim that I damaged property: I would never rent from this particular owner again.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Dec, 2025
Thank you for your review. We’re glad you enjoyed the cabin. After checkout, our team found a broken refrigerator glass shelf, with glass located in the driveway. Photos were taken immediately after departure and shared through Vrbo following standard procedures. We aim to handle all post-stay matters fairly and transparently and appreciate the feedback.

About the host

Host profile image
We bought our first cabin in 2018. Although we have traveled and stayed in many over the years, this was our first time owning one. It was a 5BR new build that we thoroughly enjoyed. After many relaxing trips and getting to know the area, we decided this was the special place that we wanted to expand our business. Having a construction background, it was easy to meet the right local people to help build our future cabins. We have since sold the original cabin, but have built six 1BR cabins that we think are the perfect destination for your next relaxing stay. We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Within 3 hours of most surrounding metroplexes, Hochatown is a local escape where unlimited adventure awaits. With the short drive from Flower Mound, I have found it the perfect get-a-way and spend around 50 nights per year there. So please, pick from one of our 6 cabins & come see what is so special about this place. Who knows, there's a good chance that you run into us on the trail, lake or relaxing at one of the amazing breweries.
