WATERFRONT House in Peaceful Cove w/ Great Fishing

***IMPORTANT NOTICE - LAKE SAM RAYBURN WATER LEVELS: Please be advised that the water levels are currently very low due to ongoing dam repair operations being conducted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. As part of this work, water is being drained from the lake. There is no projected completion date for these repairs at this time.
While we understand that lake access and water activities may be an important part of your visit, we want to be transparent about current conditions. Boat and water access in the cove are not possible at this time.
PLEASE NOTE: Refunds will not be issued due to low water levels, as this situation is beyond our control and has been clearly communicated in advance.
We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to reach out with any questions. Updated November 8, 2025***

Welcome to our beautiful lakefront cabin on Lake Sam Rayburn Reservoir near Broaddus, TX. This lake house is perfect for anglers, hunters, and families. Located less than five minutes from Broaddus, TX and the Jackson Hill Marina you will be close to stores, restaurants, and boat access while still feeling you are away from it all. Zavalla is twelve miles away and Cassels-Boykin public access is only ten miles away.

Walk less than one hundred feet and you are at the shore of a sheltered cove that is great for swimming, fishing and boating. Photography and birding possibilities abound-- regularly seen are bald eagles, cranes, egrets, hawks, turtles, otters, and deer.

For the anglers we have tried to meet your needs: conveniently located exterior outlets for charging your equipment and shoreline tie-offs for your boat if you so desire. The fishing here is amazing as well, with large-mouth and other assorted bass, crappie, gar and catfish waiting to hit your lines.

Hunters staying here will be pleasantly surprised at how close they are to hunting in the Angelina National Forest just a few minutes from the property.

For the chefs and foodies out there we have a fully furnished kitchen with all the utensils and cookware you need to make your culinary masterpiece. In addition we have a gas grill on an outside patio for the BBQ aficionados.

This home has wifi and internet TV with Sling, Netflix, Hulu, etc. For the kids and young at heart we have board games, dominoes, cards, etc. Not to mention our fire pit where hot dogs and marshmallows find their proper tasty end.

Thanks for visiting our site, we hope you choose to make your memories with us!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and local meal delivery service.
