Just what we needed

My wife and I were looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway for our anniversary. John and Cathy's cabin provided exactly that. Beautiful sunrises, a relaxing upper deck and a wonderful fire pit provided the perfect setting. The cabin feels so very welcoming and is extremely comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Amazing Spring Break Getaway

Perfect trip for our family. My husband and two tweens enjoyed this private beach and house. The beach is really the only beach in the little cove. It has access to a little canal where we were able to catch a couple of fish. The house is clean and ready for guest. You just need to bring food and soap. We were sad because we forgot our hotdog/marshmallow sticks, but this house was equipped and had some. The yard is big for the kids to run around but we stayed at the beach. The town it is located in is small, but plenty of little stores to get last minute items. My kids are usually stuck on their phones, but we spent most of the time outside and in the sun. The house does have a little living room upstairs which was nice at night when we wanted to separate from the kids. Has washer and dryer to keep everything clean and ready. Perfect trip. We will be back soon.

About the host

Hosted by John & Cathy Richmond

We are John and Cathy Richmond, and we're happy you are considering a stay at our cabin. We spent the past several years completely rebuilding the interior to make it a cozy and enjoyable retreat. We love spending time there, but are pleased to be able to share it with others.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this place when we first saw it, mostly because of the beach and beautiful lake view. After several years of careful remodeling we have decided to share its charm with others. One great thing about it is that is is only 90 minutes from Houston and only about an hour from the airport!

What makes this property unique

We looked at many properties before buying this one and what sold us was the unusual feature of the sandy beach and quiet area. While there are neighbors around the property it still feels very private. Also, the proximity to restaurants and shops makes staying here very convenient.
