Big bass weekend

First time to come to Sam Rayburn and still caught some quality fish. Lake level was about six feet lower than normal but it was still a successful trip. The cabin was perfect and our host Becky came by and was very friendly and we even met some of her family and had a great visit. Already looking forward to making another trip

Beautiful area and quiet

Great little cabin. Well furnished. Very quiet area. My brother and I were fishing a tournament and we stayed 4 nights. We’re only at the cabin to sleep but loved the area and the house. The roads can be a little challenging if it’s raining. Roads dried out fast and we loved the location. Definitely off the beaten track. Sam Rayburn is a beautiful lake and everyone we met were very nice. Eagles nest is a good restaurant too. Will book again next year.

Great Cabin

Great experience from start to finish. Host very communicative, and hospitable. The cabin was clean and perfect for what it is, A nice resting place after a long day of fishing. One and only complaint (which is not the hosts fault) +/- 2 miles of unpaved road to get to cabin. Not a problem when not pulling the boat. Just makes for a long ride in and out while pulling boat. Other than that or stay was fantastic.

Really cute cabin!!

The cabin was super clean and really nice!! We were really looking forward to using the boat ramp on the property and not have to leave the whole weekend but the weather was rainy and the lake was high so the boat ramp was under water and not usable. The rain and wet conditions made it very hard driving pulling the boat on the long dirt roads in and out to go to a usable boat ramp to fish. I think under sunny, dry conditions it would have been great there! No fault of the owners, just a bad weekend to go to the lake. We will try again under better weather conditions!!
