Quiet and easy

A lovely quiet space with plenty of accommodations and easy access to the water. Everything we needed was close by and everyone was very friendly. Check in and out was hands off, just a simple phone call. A nice weekend getaway. We will definitely come back. Thanks!!

This is a great place to stay, the boat ramp is right next door with a $5 launch fee…easy to charge boat batteries, grills, outdoor seating, full fridge and freezer, coffee pot, microwave comfortable bed…we fished and just pulled up on the bank to take a break at the inn and just headed back out….they had kayaks and canoes to use but we had our boat so we didn’t use them but saw others using them….there was a dock that others were fishing from…nice vibe at night with all the lights…would definitely stay here again.

Close to the Water

The cabin was near the water and very nice. The management said that you will have to bring your own cooking utensils and any kind other kitchen needs (silverware, bowls, cups). We did. The cabin itself was clean and very peaceful. If we want to stay near Caddo Lake again, we will certainly contact this location.

Perfect retreat

Walked to the lake,pushed a couple of very nice kayaks in and paddled about two hours. Stacy got us outfitted in two new life jackets and on Saturday afternoon Keith came by and took us on a FREE boat ride all around the lake. Definitely going back again. Also,it was my birthday weekend and a Happy Birthday banner and balloons were in our cute little cabin when we arrived!

Very peaceful and everyone was so friendly. Other than the owner following too close behind us as we were trying to find our cabin causing us to back into her vehicle and causing lots of damage to our new car, we enjoyed the stay. Not sure why she was right on our tail like that.

The place was all locked up every room and it was raining and cold so I left five minutes before three. I didn’t know they sent someone to open the door at straight up 3 o’clock so I drove three hours back home and they refuse to give me a refund

Love thy neighbor

It was a nice place as far as being clean and the scenery was nice. As for the fishing right off the pie in front of the place goes….that was a disaster. The neighbors to the left drove loud boats back and forth right in front of us making it impossible to fish. It happened all day way after dark the entire weekend. We went to fish and enjoy peace and quiet on the river and it was not at all peacefully and we couldn’t even keep a lite in the water due to the boats Ravi g back and forth.

Disappointing

We really wanted to like this place but...first of all, the owner will not answer messages or calls. Poor cell service and no wifi password is available. The door was open and key on the table, which was fine. There were No towels or washcloths and no coffee (as stated would be available in their ad). The room was cute but the floors were filthy! So were the walls and refrigerator. Also, there is no where in this remote area to eat after 6 pm. This dumpy little town is not a good tourist spot to say the least. Don't get me wrong, we're country people and love to fish, but we were just not comfortable here. We didn't stay our second night.
