Lake Escape

This cabin was PERFECT for my husband and I to get away for a few days, unplug, and enjoy beautiful Amon G. Carter lake. It was extremely clean and furnished with everything we needed. We enjoyed being able to jump in and out of our boat to go fishing by easily tying up to the dock. The owners were very attentive to us by texting us to let us know the water company had issued a boil notice due to a waterline issue and were very apologetic, even though this really did not affect us negatively, in the least. The best part of this cabin for us was the fact that they welcomed our dog. We don’t go without her!! Highly recommend this cabin and plan to visit again soon.

2024 fishing trip

The lake did not disappoint with fish. I caught 50 in 5 days. My husband caught 25. We relaxed, watched movies and took naps. This is a great place.

Weekend getaway

We thought the property was great! Very accommodating inside and out, with about everything you'd ever need. Everything was laid out nicely with a welcome book and general instruction. The owners also made themselves available for questions, which is very much appreciated. If you get the chance, stop my the neighbors with the red "cabin". He's a hoot!
