About this property

Relaxing Lakefront Retreat w/ Kayaks, Hot Tub and RV hookup

Welcome to the Hideaway House, a lovely lakefront cottage on secluded cove including fun amenities like hot tub, firepit, RV hookups, kayaks and paddleboard, outdoor kitchen, and more. 2 bedrooms, sleeps 6, newly remodeled, water access.

Get away from it all in this lovely lakefront cottage perfect for families or small groups. This house is located on a secluded cove and boasts three levels of decks, each with something to offer. Watch movies from the hot tub on the outdoor pull-down projector or grill your dinner and dine outside under the custom pergola. This deck also features an outdoor sink, stone countertops, and a mini fridge. Roast marshmallows or enjoy drinks by the firepit on the middle deck—you’ll find ready-made smores kits in the kitchen! Savor your morning coffee or evening cocktails on the lowest deck right over the water, or open the umbrellas and lounge with a blender of margaritas in the afternoon! This deck includes a power supply so you don’t even have to go back inside.

Indoors, you’ll find a newly renovated space with a king bedroom and queen bedroom as well as a complimentary queen-size airbed available to sleep two more. Enjoy a cozy fire on chilly nights in the wood-burning fireplace (wood provided), snuggle up with a good book, or enjoy a family game night at the dining table. There’s high-speed wifi throughout. Living room boasts a 65 inch smart TV and king bedroom has its own mounted smart TV as well. All towels, cotton sheets, bedding, spare blankets, closets with hangers, bathroom toiletries, and amenities are available so you can truly unwind worry-free.

Kitchen is stocked with spices, oil, and vinegar, as well as full dinnerware and flatware sets, pans and skillets for cooking, knife set, cutting boards, and everything else you could need to prepare a delicious meal. You’ll also find a Ninja blender, full coffee station with drip pot and K-cup compatibility, pitchers for iced tea or lemonade, and a kettle for easy hot tea or cocoa before bed.


Fish or swim right off the lower deck or shoreline. Or, for a little more adventure, have a blast exploring the cove or paddle out to open water on three kayaks located under the middle deck for your use—one is child-size—as well as a paddle board. Borrow life jackets from the deck box and store kayaks overnight on the floating jet dock included on the property’s waterfront. This is also a great place to bring your very own jet ski for overnight storage. Plenty of space in front of the house for boat trailer parking and you can tie off your boat to the lowest deck on the water. The front of the home also includes RV hookup—sewer and electric—so more family and friends can join in the fun!

Great getaway

Booked for girls getaway for my daughters 18 bday ! We absolutely enjoyed our stay , it was very peaceful and had great amenities. The girls loved watching the projector tv while they were soaking all their worries away in the hot tub, enjoyed smores at the fire pit and had dinner on the deck . All together I highly recommend this hideaway for anyone looking to get away for acouple of days. The host was one of the nicest I have had from any of my previous stays at other locations and I really appreciated her service . We will definitely be booking another trip in the future.

Great mom's getaway

We really enjoyed staying in the house. Its an adorable little cottage that had everything we needed to unwind and relax. The hot tub was great in the evenings, the kayaks were fun during the day. If I had to say one negative thing, it would be that the water level was very low. But obviously that is not something the owners can control. It just made it a little difficult to get down to the kayaks, but other than that it was a perfect place to stay.

Can’t wait to go back!

Stayed here over the 4th of July holiday with my family. It was our first blended family getaway and we had such a fabulous time. This place is a gem and right by the water. We loved being able to kayak out and enjoy the water. The beds are super comfortable. Layout is perfect for lounging around and big enough we could also have alone time if needed. The kitchen is stocked with pretty much all the items we needed to stay in and cook for ourselves. We LOVED having the ability to play music in the bathroom. The host is super sweet and responsive for any questions we had. Cannot wait to go back.

Cozy and comfortable

This property is beautifully remodeled. It has luxury and lots of thoughtful personal touches. The hot tub and outside spaces are great. I saw hummingbirds on the deck, ducks and a beautiful black cat (at a distance). The Hideaway house has everything you need for a comfortable relaxing stay.

Booked for my parents. They absolutely loved it! Owner thought of everything you would need. My kids loved playing on the kayaks when we visited during the day and my parents loved drinking their coffee on the back patio every morning!

Everything You’ll Need

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this lake front house. It had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed using the paddle boards and kayaks during the day and relaxing in the hot tub while watching a movie in the projector at night. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to feed the kids and a nice coffee bar for the adults. The host was quick to reply when we reached out to them and were very friendly. We highly recommend this place for family and friends to enjoy the lake. We look forward to booking it again for our next visit.

Fantastic Hideaway House

Our family had a wonderful time staying at the Hideaway House. The owners of this home 🏡 have taken time to think about every detail. After arriving to a very clean and air conditioned home, we went out on the kayaks to explore the lake. Beautiful quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors. The evening was spent in the jacuzzi, watching our favorite family movie 🎥 on the patio. We taught our kids to play Backgammon on a board game provided. The kitchen was supplied with lots of “extras” and we were very pleased and comfortable. Great find. We will definitely be returning. Deep gratitude and thanks to the owners.

Perfect getaway!

Our stay here was great! An otherwise hot Texas day felt cool and breezy sitting out next to the water. Everything was clean and the attention to detail to ensure our visit was welcome was not lost on me. We had plenty of space and the beds were comfortable, and we slept great. Having the washer and dryer was great after a day of kayaking and working up a sweat. The kitchen was tidy and had everything we needed including grilling utensils. Everything had a place and a label. The fridge was spotless as well, which I’ve found is rare for lake houses this time of year. The bathroom was spotless and the shower had great water pressure. Not to mention the built in Bluetooth speaker in the ceiling was super cool! We relaxed on the decks in the evening and and enjoyed the hot tub at night. We were able to watch a movie from the hot tub on the outdoor projector so that was pretty cool. The different decks in the back were awesome, you can sit at the house or down by the water. Either way is very relaxing. Neighborhood was quiet and check in and out was super straight forward. The owners were very responsive and friendly with any questions or concerns we had. We look forward to booking here again!
