About the host

Hosted by Shane Hailey

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Whitney — I thrive with roots in both Texas and California, and always happiest near the water or on a trail. I’m a dog lover, frequent traveler, and have been fortunate to explore many countries and states over the years. Those experiences shaped how I design and host: creating homes that feel inviting, comfortable, and ready for real life. Whether you’re here to work, rest, or explore East Texas, my goal is for you to feel right at home.

Why they chose this property

We chose Sunset Shores because the Lake Athens community is special—it’s quiet, scenic, and feels like a true escape without being remote. The sunsets here are unreal (hence the name), the water is calm and perfect for swimming or fishing, and the neighborhood has that peaceful, tucked-away charm you don’t find often.

What we love most is the balance: you get privacy, space to spread out, and a huge lakefront backyard, but you’re still close to town, grocery stores, and the conveniences you need. It’s a place where mornings feel slow, days are spent on the water, and evenings end around the firepit or the big family dining table.

This neighborhood is ideal for family gatherings, friend trips, or anyone who wants to unwind and enjoy nature in a relaxed Texas lake community.

What makes this property unique

Sunset Shores stands out because it was designed with families and groups in mind from the ground up. The home sits on a spacious 1.5-acre lot with a private dock, a wide-open backyard, and plenty of room to relax, play, and make memories.

A few things guests love:

The layout — Two king master suites, a third bedroom, and an incredible bunk room that kids always claim as their own.

The property size — Spread out, explore, set up yard games, or sip coffee while watching sunrise on the lake.

The private dock — Great for fishing, swimming, launching kayaks, or simply hanging out by the water.

The peaceful atmosphere — Quiet mornings, golden sunsets, and a sense of calm you can’t fake.

The thoughtful touches — Quality beds, inviting décor, and the kind of setup that makes cooking, gathering, and relaxing effortless.

Sunset Shores is a comfortable luxury lake house that truly feels like a retreat — the perfect mix of cozy, scenic, and spacious.
