What guests think
At Serene Lakefront Cabin, Fishing, Firepit, Kayaks, many guests highlight the quiet, scenic private-lake setting with a deck and dock, easy fishing, and simple extras like kayaks and a fire pit for relaxed, outdoors-focused stays.
Many praise responsive, helpful communication from the hosts, though a few guests reported occasional gate or contact-number hiccups at check-in or exit. Cleanliness is often rated highly, but recurring notes mention insects, spotty housekeeping, and a dated feel with some maintenance concerns like worn furniture, uneven doors or floors, and aging fixtures. Most cook in the adequately stocked kitchen, and several note limited nearby restaurants. Expect a peaceful, lake-centered escape with rustic comforts rather than polished luxury.

The property was very clean and tidy. We caught a lot of fish and enjoyed the back porch and private pier! Would recommend this property to anyone.

The little cabin was very clean. I requested no strong smells due to allergies and there was none. My husband is a large tall man and had a little challenge in the small shower. A slide bar for the shower head/wand would have alleviated that. Pricing was affordable. There was a kayak and a canoe for our use, they also had life vests. The entire neighborhood was quiet, the lake was quiet. Was a perfect 4 day stay for a getaway!

We were just taking a short 4 day get away. More about the pets than people. They loved the water access right off the back yard. Nice sized deck at back of house. Lot of dock diving and swimming were had. Gated community don’t think we saw a single person the whole time we were there.

We came up for my 30th to have quiet mornings on the lake and make smores over the fire at night. It was very cute and cozy! We brought a yoga mat to sit on the dock and it was the best idea! The neighbors are quiet and the lake is serene. The canoes has to be de-spidered but that’s part of the charm! We made all our meals and had no trouble. My best suggestion there Is to bring a pitcher or something to cook in. Meagan was an amazing host and we really loved it!

This property is great because if you are a fisherman there are many ponds to fish. Quiet and gated community which makes it safe to walk and hike in the woods. We really enjoyed being in the water with the canoe and kayak. I would recommend this place for a fun fishing experience.

We were so happy. The cabin was surrounded by giant Oak trees. Sitting on the deck looking up at them is awesome, and we were looking at a private pier on a beautiful lake. We saw lots of waterfowl and just enjoyed it all. One note though. When my dog and I went to the end of our driveway to get the trash cans we were aggressively approached by 2 pit bull dogs. A white one; and a black one. I was able to separate them from my dog; but the black pit aggressively approached me. I just walked off. When I returned the trash can to the end of the driveway I did not see them. If this had been my wife I would have shot both dogs. These aggressive dogs are running loose. Other than that we loved our stay. Hopefully we will see y’all again.

We are seniors and have been married 47 yrs. Our 3 & 4 yr old grandsons stayed with us 1 night of the 7. Everything we needed was here. We thoroughly enjoyed the canoe. Fishing was great. Very cozy cottage! Enjoyed just sitting on the dock and the deck. My grandsons asked if we could come back here on the next trip.

It was a great getaway. The community was so quiet and the location was perfect for everything we needed or wanted. The lakehouse was very quaint and very clean. My husband fished, our beagle strolled the property and I rested. Everything mentioned in details are spot on, with great communications. Hope to be back again.

Had a daddy and daughter weekend getaway with my buddy and this place was perfect. Quiet and peaceful. The house was what we expected. Cozy, just the right size for four person and our fur ball. The small lake was full of fish. Did a lot of fishing and Kayaking. The host Ajai is very communicative with direction and checkin. Would definitely stay here again. Just one issue with cleaning. We got there and the grill was not clean ( get a gas grill) and many bugs was in the house when we got there in bedroom. I know we are in the woods but maybe ask the cleaners to clean more. Overall no major complaints.

The location was great. The cabin was a bit dated and disappointing. Things were older than I thought. It was mostly clean, but not as clean as I'd prefer, especially the carpets.

Rooms
Guests find the cabin cozy with beautiful lake views from the deck and large windows, and some note it is spacious enough for small groups. However, recurring feedback cites dated furnishings and comfort issues (e.g., futon and mattress), a small shower, sloping floors or door gaps, and occasional HVAC odors.

Very quiet, safe and peaceful pond community. The owner communicated with us before and after our stay which was nice. The house itself is older and needs to pretty much be updated all throughout. Futon couch in living room is not comfortable longer than an hour or so on your back, older chairs in house and various walls and items in house “patched up” instead of replaced/repaired. Beds were comfortable although we thought main room would have king bed, but it was a queen. Both air conditioning units produced bad/odd smells when blowing our air and need replacing. If you’re mainly looking at being outside most of the time you’d be fine to rent here…past reviews didn’t warn us. Back yard backs up to pond and deck with large trees that shade the area. Beware of futon…you can slide right out of it! Back yard could be tidied up as well, had tree branches piled up and some chairs etc. random places and junk under house deck area. We aren’t outside/lake people so most likely wouldn’t stay here again unless home was fully renovated. Hope you enjoy your stay if you choose this house.

We had a wonderful time at the property. The living space was great and the outdoor even better! It was quiet and relaxing and the views were beautiful! We took some prepped food with us, although there is a brookshires about 15 min away. There is some walking available although the labeled trails seemed to be overgrown so we just walked around the neighborhood. We did not have any issues and would love to come back! Thank you!

It was a quiet spot. Only two issues prevented a 5 stars rating. The listing should mention that the pond is catch and release only. We didn’t find that out until we read the additional listed info on the frig. We probably wouldn’t have booked and my husband was disappointed. We did end up going 20 minutes away to state park to fish. Also, bedroom sliding door left a gap when close. Assuming due to foundation shifting which you can tell from the sloping within, but we had to stuff a towel between door and frame to keep the gnats from getting in. We brought a bug zapper so was able to get rid of most. Overall, we enjoyed our break away from the busiest of our day to day.

Our stay was great. The place was clean, and communication with the host was good. The first phone number provided did not pick up calls, but the other number was the gentleman- he was available for emails and calls with questions. The only con is that the exact house number was not provided. They do provide instructions but adding the exact house number will be easier for other guests. Also, exiting was hard as the code did not work, a resident had to open the gate for us. So a clear exit gate code will be great. Overall, great stay and would recommend.

Cabin was exactly what we wanted. East Texas, private lake, beautiful trees, quiet. It was just two hours from our home in DFW. Enjoyed a little fishing and driving around the countryside. Owner was quick to respond during rental process. Directions and property details were good. If you stay here, drive into Winnsboro for breakfast at The Haven cafe, yummy food, friendly staff. We had a great couple of days here.

We enjoyed our weekend at this quaint little cabin. The view from the deck is beautiful and we enjoyed watching the wildlife. The cabin is not far from Winnsboro and we found some great restaurants. The communication with our host was excellent.

It was a great getaway. The community was so quiet and the location was perfect for everything we needed or wanted. The lakehouse was very quaint and very clean. My husband fished, our beagle strolled the property and I rested. Everything mentioned in details are spot on, with great communications. Hope to be back again.

We were just taking a short 4 day get away. More about the pets than people. They loved the water access right off the back yard. Nice sized deck at back of house. Lot of dock diving and swimming were had. Gated community don’t think we saw a single person the whole time we were there.

We had a wonderful time at the property. The living space was great and the outdoor even better! It was quiet and relaxing and the views were beautiful! We took some prepped food with us, although there is a brookshires about 15 min away. There is some walking available although the labeled trails seemed to be overgrown so we just walked around the neighborhood. We did not have any issues and would love to come back! Thank you!

All as advertised. Quiet, secluded, clean with extras. Canada goose pair on the pond and coyotes howling at night. Short drive to Winnsboro to a Brookshire’s if you forgot anything. Wish we would have stayed longer.

Our experience with this lake house was amazing! We did exactly what we wanted to… relaxed! The house was fully equipped with all of our cooking needs. It was so quiet and cozy, we would definitely return!

My family and fur babies had the best time. Was exactly as advertised. Very quiet and peaceful. Great place to unplug. Communication with Meagan was great, she responded immediately with all my questions. The cabin was clean and enjoyed that the cabin kitchen and bathroom was fully stocked with all our needs. Everything was as expected. We recommend if you want to disconnect from the everyday hustle and bustle check this place out. Hope to be back soon!

We had a great stay at this cabin. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and this place was just what we were looking for. Quiet, great view and cozy. The water outback is clear but we were disappointed when we couldn't see any fish which made our fishing time dull but this is no fault of the homeowner. Restaurant choices in the area are limited but we brought food to make in the cabin which the kitchen is stocked with the necessities to cook meals.

We came up for my 30th to have quiet mornings on the lake and make smores over the fire at night. It was very cute and cozy! We brought a yoga mat to sit on the dock and it was the best idea! The neighbors are quiet and the lake is serene. The canoes has to be de-spidered but that’s part of the charm! We made all our meals and had no trouble. My best suggestion there Is to bring a pitcher or something to cook in. Meagan was an amazing host and we really loved it!

My wife and I absolutely loved our stay at the cabin. I think the only one who enjoyed the stay more than us was our dog. The only thing I personally would recommended is to bring your own food to cook. All restaurants are pretty far from the location but honestly we didn’t mind staying. It was very comforting and there was always something to do. Minor concerns: The kitchen drawers would tend to fall out of place and the power did go out during rain.
