The cabin was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views that made every sunrise and sunset feel magical. The amenities were top-notch, providing everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. From the cozy interior to the well-equipped kitchen and outdoor spaces, it truly felt like a getaway in nature. The only downside was the number of bugs that managed to get inside, even with all doors and windows shut-Some of our food was ruined Aside from that, it was an amazing experience, and I’d still recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful retreat!We will be returning soon!
Great location and property setting. Comfortable cabin and location along the water was ideal. Easy preparation for meals in kitchen. All ages enjoyed our stay. Close enough to city but yet far enough away if you want to get away!
We loved this cabin. It was very accommodating to all our needs. The property is gorgeous. It has everything you need like spices, lots of dishes and utensils. We will come back again for sure.
I can’t say enough about how great the communication was with the owners. The cabin was exactly how it looked and very peaceful. We also booked a fishing trip with Troy and he was amazing if you are looking for something to do in the area.
Great spot, secluded & quiet with a great view of the Red River.
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
- You will have to park uphill from the rental and walk your groceries and luggage downhill
- The walk from the parking area while short isn't friendly for small children or the elderly
- While the cabin has AC there are no vents in the master bedroom, be prepared to sleep with the bedroom door open as there is no air flow
- Cabin does get very dark at night
- Bunk room is on the 3rd floor
- Queen bedroom is on the 2nd floor
My husband and I stayed for the weekend. Concert at Choctaw Casino was easy to get to. We absolutely loved this property. Private, peaceful, beautiful! A real gem to find! Will be bringing family and friends back!
We really enjoyed the property! This was our second time to rent the home. It’s clean and the location is awesome. It’s right on the red river so you can fish from the backyard! The house has a really nice outdoor hang out section with a fire pit area. We all had a blast! It was such a fun and relaxing weekend getaway! We will definitely be coming back!
Pictures do not do the property justice! The cabin was awesome. You really felt out in the woods. We will return!

Great place to stay.
The cabin was great, and we love the location on the river. The only thing was the refrigerator was not clean there was stuff left in it. We didn't want to use someone's left over food. We enjoyed sitting on the porch and looking at the river and watching the wildlife. The patio area was great and perfect for a cookout. The cabin was clean other than the fridge.
I put together a short farewell "guy trip" because one of our crew is moving to Florida in a few months. We wanted to pick a place that was near Lake Texoma since we had a guided fishing trip planned for the weekend. The cabin was close enough to meet our guide with a 30-minute trip to the marina (your results may vary). The cabin was "just rustic enough" with lots of reclaimed and upcycled decoration and finishes that made it feel a lot older than it is, but it still had most modern conveniences. We ended up spending a lot more time than we thought on the South patio watching the sunsets and local wildlife (fish, turtles, pelicans, birds, a bat, and pretty sure we saw a beaver swimming in the water once the sun went down; we lit him up with a high-powered spot light). We would definitely go back here again. All the guys liked it and may return with their own family pods, too.
Not one single negative about this amazing house and grounds. Perfect in all regards. Setting was absolutely beautiful...just steps down to the River, lots of hiking opportunities, three fire pits amd lots of natural firewood to collect, lots of patio seating with comfortable chairs and rockets, 3 kayaks and 1 canoe along with life jackets and paddles included. Inside the house was another rare treat. Interesting decor on every wall. Moose, bison, and many other mounts, lots of fishing decor, something interesting to enjoy on every wall in every room! Beds were comfortable, linens plentiful, kitchen well stocked. Separate ice maker. The view from the house to the River was five star. We saw lots of deer, ducks, geese, and other wildlife. We ordered takeout from Farmstead in Colbert, just a few miles away, and the food was delicious. Even our two millennial sons and their girlfriends thought it was top notch and we are already planning our return.

Less Than Great Experience
The view was great and the house was great, but there were issues. When we arrived the door was unlocked--that is because neither the front door nor the front window would lock-which was a little disconcerting when staying in a strange place. There was an infestation of wasps inside the house. We killed at least 50 during our stay and one in our party was stung. The kitchenware was pretty gross. Baked on grease and burned pans. I have rented a number of homes at this price point and all but this one had well-appointed kitchens. It would be a small investment to buy new kitchenware and glassware and would leave a much better impression.
We had a fantastic stay at this river retreat. It was super private. The only other people we ever saw were on the air boats going by at night bow fishing. We enjoyed watching them! My favorit part of our stay was the break form internet and tv. It was grounding to ignore all of the noise in the world right now and just take in the peace and quite and enjoy nature. We really enjoyed fishing and kayaking as well as swimming. We went to Eisenhower State Park to swim at the beach there. I highly recommend that! It was fantastic! We hope to visit again next year.
We have stayed here a couple of times now and my family loves this place, from the location to the house amenities and everything in between. We try to make this property a yearly vacation spot, it has not disappointed us yet.
The cabin is beautiful, full of vintage reclaimed materials. The owner has fully stocked & thought of everything you may need. The only complaints would be the condition of the kayaks. They filled with water quickly as all had holes & the duct tape patching has become worn. The trek to the river may be a bit steep if you aren’t in good condition. The cabin is in close proximity to Burns Run, where we enjoyed swimming. Also not far from Eisenhower state park for great trails. We enjoyed rocking on the patio & watching the sunrise & sunset.
Birthday/ Fishing with family & friends getaway...
Loved the property and loved the cabin. We will definitely be back and in better shape to make sure we can concur the hike up the hill. Had a blast and enjoyed the amenities around, thanks to the family for our enjoyment.
Owners very generous with food and condiments left for us. Unique house and wonderful antiques to admire. Very steep incline to cabin and river. Disappointed in the condition of the boats. Fishing is amazing!
We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything you need is here. The kids had a blast and the adults got some needed rest. The kids did not want to leave! Highly recommend this beautiful and fun cabin on the Red River.
Owner was great to work with! We enjoyed every minute we were there. Cool cabin! Spectacular view! The kids had a blast fishing-nice access to river.
