About this property

Waterfront Cottage With Your Own Personal Sandy Beach And Expansive Lake View

This two story cabin is situated on 3 grassy lots just feet from a sandy beach in a quiet neighborhood. The lake is shallow off of the beach and is perfect for children to play in. The cabin upstairs is an open plan with 2 queen beds, a bath, and a sitting area with 55" TV. It opens onto a balcony overlooking the beach and lake. Downstairs has a complete, fully outfitted kitchen, laundry with washer & dryer, full bath, and a living area with another 46" TV. Both TVs have ROKU which includes streaming service such as Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, and more (requires your login). Sitting area includes queen sofabed.

The cabin has WiFi.

Outside there is a covered porch and a large deck that is shaded most of the day, a hammock, gas grill, and large, fenced yard. Also, there are 2 kayaks and a pedal boat for guest use at no additional fee.

While the kitchen is great for cooking, there are also a number of restaurants within a short drive. There is a large grocery store 5 minutes away. Property is located between Hunstville and Livingston, both noted for numerous antique shops.

The large deck outside sports a gas grill (we provide the gas).

Great place to relax
We enjoyed this nice home on our way across the US. Sunrises were beautiful and the privacy the home offered was appreciated. Fun to watch the different birds in the lake catching their dinner and breakfast. Was nice to sit on the porch and the deck taking in the views.

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.

About the host

Hosted by John & Cathy Richmond

Host profile image
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.
