About this property

Summer is heading our way and Stillwaters is getting booked up! C’mon out!

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. 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. We often 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.

Peaceful stay At Stillwaters!

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

River stay

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!

Great, peaceful family getaway!

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!

Relaxing weekend gateway from Dallas

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.

Restful stay by the river!

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!

About the host

Hosted by Lana K. Hoover

Host profile image
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!
