About the area
Located in Pottsboro, this holiday home is on a lake. Highport Marina and Lighthouse Marina are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Lake Texoma and Eisenhower State Park. Red River Railroad Museum and Harber Wildlife Museum are also worth visiting. Visit our Pottsboro travel guide

GMa, Gson, GGkids had a great time at the rental! Lake was not an option so we went to LEGOLAND and Aquarium, so fun! Birthday was celebrated with GGson. Outdoor kitchen grilled hamburgers, hotdogs and steaks… delicious! Thanks for sharing your place with us!
I loved this cute cottage in the woods. There are properties around but its still very quiet. It was a enjoyable stay for us and the pups. Lots to do in the surrounding areas. We rented a boat, went fishing, went horse back riding. We went for a dmall hike in the woods. Loved the open area in the house. It was cozy and the back patio was there we do most of our haning out.
Needed a quick last minute getaway and booked this little cottage for Labor Day weekend. It was peaceful and quiet. We loved the sound of the pond fountain and our two pups had a good time wandering the yard. Our host was friendly and very responsive. She even let us check in 3 hours early since no one had rented it before us! We had a wonderful time and will be back soon!
We stayed a couple of days at this lovely little cottage and it was very peaceful. The location is somewhat secluded at the end of a road. Patio was amazing with all cooking utensils, bar, tables, furniture and big screen TV. Inside was well equipped and comfy. No view of the lake but a nice, sandy beach was only 2 miles away. Our fur babies loved the big yard. We would definitely book again. Host was very easy to deal with and super friendly.
No surprises and lovely property elevated by outdoor area
We had a great time staying over a weekend in late March. The weather was cool but we didn't miss a beat at the property with both outdoor and indoor fire features.
The property is expansive, has a great fenced in area for fur babies, and is exactly as advertised.
If our travels take us back to Texoma, we'll be sure to book here again!
Thanks again for letting us enjoy your wonderful retreat in the woods.

We absolutely love this property and hope to book it again in the near future! The home is in great condition, clean, well taken care of and very close to Highport Marina. The owners are fantastic and very friendly.
The home was beautiful, very clean and well stocked. The beds were super comfortable. Lots of deck furnishings, grill and large outdoor tv. Fire pit and picnic tables. It was a peaceful and relaxing stay. Andrea was a great host! Thank you! Our Aussie loved the fenced yard and watching squirrels through the fence. We highly recommend this beautiful cottage and will stay again if back this way. We loved it! Thank you!
This is our annual "after thanksgiving" weekend trip. Location of this house was great, at the end of the block. Nice privacy. Everything we needed was available and Andrea was very accommodating and great with her communication. Loved the patio area!! Awesome weekend with family!
I love this little cottage!! This was our second time renting this lovely home and definitely won’t be our last. Andrea ( Host/ Owner ) is absolutely amazing! She goes above and beyond in making you feel as comfortable as possible during your stay! We now consider her a dear friend and a part of our family!!❤️
This property is beautiful, great location and the Host is truly so sweet. The house is perfect, and the amenities are excellent. Love the location and how semi secluded it is, at dead end of road, great privacy and such a relaxing home. The pictures doesn't do justice for how great this property actually is once you get there. This is for sure on my top of the list of property that I will continue to rent. Thank You Andrea for sharing your wonderful cottage. You know I will be back week of the 4th :)

The pictures do not represent the house….it is very run down. The washer does not wring out the clothes at all, the deck is very, very dangerous with loose and rotted boards all over. Fridge needs to be slammed shut or it pops open, needs a lot of tender loving care!!
We just wanted a place to get away from all the stress of the pandemic and our work, and we found it. The house was just perfect for out family of 6 plus 1 fur baby. We love the deck area with plenty of room to sit around and just decompress, we grilled steaks one night and even though football season had not started we found an old game to watch on the outdoor TV and just enjoyed life again. We would walk down to the lake to get some exercise and our dog loved the walks and being able to get in the water and splash around a bit. The owner was very easy to get a hold of but we really did not have any issues as she left us little notes about what to do and where things were, like what light switch controlled what. Would definitely recommend and would stay there again.
Andrea was an excellent host and went above and beyond for our weekend birthday bash! There were so many areas to sit and chat - all beautifully appointed and comfortable. I highly recommend staying here!
Our family of 4 (and 1 fur baby) had a wonderful time here celebrating an 80th birthday! It had everything we needed for cooking, including an outdoor grill/patio set up. The location was great as we were able to rent a pontoon from Highpoint Marina just 5 minutes down the road. We would definitely come back!
This home was very cute and the outside was even better. The bed my husband and I slept on was extremely comfortable and gave us a good night sleep after a day on the lake. There are some foundation issues that you should be prepared for that really caught us off guard but other then that, it was perfect.
My wife and I had a relaxing weekend time at this cottage. The fenced in area out front was perfect for our dog and the it was nice to spend our evenings watching TV on the patio. This is a great location where you feel secluded, but there is plenty to do only a short drive away. We will definitely try and book again in the future when we need another break from the city.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The property was private and had everything we needed; loved the deck by the pond, outdoor kitchen, and large TV with seating - very relaxing. The location was great as it was close to Highport Marina and Tanglewood. Our dogs loved being able to run around also. We'll be back!
Everything was wonderful. From the cleanliness, to the amenities. Our wonderful host anticipated our every need and was there for us anytime we had a question. Thank you Andrea! We loved our stay!!
This little cottage was picture perfect! Between the cottage, porch, and the yard, my 4 children stayed busy! We had everything we needed. I loved that there were things for our dog as well! The picket fence was perfect for our little Maltese.
The beds were extremely comfortable! One of my kids did sleep on the couch, because we thought there was a mattress in the trundle. But we all slept so well!
I’d love to come back and see how beautiful it looks when everything is green again.
