The perfect Caddo getaway!

Love the place! It's right down the road from Big Pines Lodge and just a short drive from Shady Glade Cafe. It's on one of the wider parts of Caddo making it easy to swim without being worried about boat traffic. The water is nice and deep, everyone had a blast using the slide and diving! Coming from a local, I'd suggest this house for anyone looking for a vacation or even a stay-cation like we did!

Great Place!!!! The house was awesome, perfect for kids. Our kids didn’t want to even go out in the boats they wanted to stay and play at the house. A slide, jump platform, floats and a lily pad! They have plenty of room here for everyone and an extra cabin on the property that you can also rent out. They have multiple boat slips and tires on the post so you can get easily tie off other boats without worrying about them hitting the side. The host was very helpful and answered every question promptly! We will definitely be staying here when we come back!

Family Fun

Perfect location on the bayou. It’s a short walk or boat ride to Big Pines Lodge. Outdoor spots to meet everyone’s needs; sunny deck with slide and jump platform, shaded deck with table, bar and swings, and a screened in porch. The large table inside is perfect for family game nights! I’ve lost count how many times we have stayed here but there are little improvements each year.

This home was even better than the pictures showed. Here is what we loved about it:1.Great location with easy boat and car access to restaurant, boat ramps and town.2.Plenty of room for our boats with boat slips that made getting in and out so easy.3.Fun swimming area with slide, floating island and jumping deck. We had a blast! Also lots of ladders/steps to get out of the water.4.Chairs, tables, rockers, swings everywhere! So many places for us all to hang out.5.Well stocked kitchen cabinets for all our cooking needs.6.Nice bedding and plenty of towels.....we never ran out.7.Screened in porch was so nice and a perfect place for our grandbaby to play and not escape.8.Plenty of parking space9.Loved the open concept of the kitchen, dining and living room. Plenty of space for us all to hang out but still feel like we were all together.10.Hot tub was a nice treat.11.Cabin was cozy. The swinging bedroom doors allowed enough privacy for one family to be in the bedroom and a single person on the daybed in the living room.12.Owner was very helpful and always answered our questions very quickly.13.Neighbors next door were friendly and offered to help if we needed anything.14.We used the cane poles to catch a few perch off the deck and also enjoyed relaxing in all the lounge chairs while watching the boaters pass by.Overall, we had a great experience! Highly recommend!And if you have never been to Caddo Lake, it is an experience you will really enjoy!

Perfect place to spend the weekend (or a week or 2). When it was raining we spent the day on the screened in porch. Would definitely visit again. Nicest property on the river available to rent.

Ok

It was ok, was smaller than what the listing showed, and not a kids area like the listing showed. What showed a white and blue house in the kids area ended up being another house you could rent for extra money. Wasn’t what the listing advertised. Other than that the house was nice just smaller than what we wanted.

Caddo Lake wonder

We throughly enjoyed our stay! Boys (10, 9, & 6) fished from dock catching and releasing lots of perch. Big screened in porch, hot tub and deck. We had a boat but didn’t dock our boat there. View is just beautiful. Very nice and welcoming, would definitely go back.
