The Side Pocket - A Fisherman's Retreat

Our charming retreat comfortably sleeps up to 4 guests with a queen bedroom upstairs for a restful night's sleep. And downstairs, you'll find a sofa bed with a memory foam mattress adjacent to the pool table and kitchenette.

The living space is centered around the pool table downstairs with a 55" Smart TV, couch, a high top table with seating for two, and a recliner. Perfect for casual gathering after a day on the water. We also have a set of corn hole boards with bags.

The bathroom boasts a large soaker tub as well as a shower for your relaxation needs, and a washer and dryer are thoughtfully located within the bathroom for your convenience. The kitchenette has a full-size refrigerator with a microwave that can be conveniently rolled out of the closet on a sturdy cart. And we have two grill options (charcoal and gas).

Park your truck and boat with ease. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening barbecue in the sitting area at front entrance, complete with grills, shades, and a fan to keep cool.

Nestled on a lovely lot in Lake Conroe Forest just off Highway 105, our Side Pocket offers easy access to nearby fishing spots and outdoor activities around Lake Conroe. And don't forget to check out our second Unit, The Cedar Shack, also on property!

We stayed 2 nights at the Side Pocket while in the area for an event. The neighborhood felt very safe, and the gated fenced yard had ample parking for our small utility trailer. The accommodation was very comfortable and clean, and looked brand new (I later learned it was a year old) with no signs of wear & tear at all! And it is pet friendly. Although we did not play pool, the table was nicely placed where you could actually make shots without hitting anything with the cue stick! Although that seems like it would be obvious, in our experience, it is not. In fact, attention to detail was very apparent throughout the unit, from the decor to providing convenient places to put your drink while using the sofa, or to charge your phone by the bed. Whoever designed the space looked at it from a practical POV as well as making it feel homey and inviting.The bedroom is upstairs, and the bathroom is downstairs so that would be a consideration for someone that needs to get up during the night. Although we didn’t cook, everything was provided to make simple meals.Communication was great and we were made to feel very welcome. This will be our first choice accommodation the next time we’re in the area!
