About this property

Looking for a QUIET lakeside getaway?

Looking for a QUIET lakeside getaway? Casa Reel is a great destination for a low-key lake experience. Perfect for those who like to fish, swim, canoe, or relax on the deck. Not a party pad, Casa Reel is nice for couples, small families, a couple of fishing buddies, or as a home base for a few gal pals who want to explore Athens, Canton, Dallas, or Waco. Located on Richland Chambers Reservoir, 15 min SE of the historic town of Corsicana. Non-smoking property inside and out. Pets not permitted. 3B/2.5 house located on cul-de-sac in charming cove with beautiful views of the lake and over 200 ft of waterfront, which incl private dock and boat slip. Just fyi, it's a country setting...we do our best to keep them at bay, but there may be some bugs and critters.

Just what the family needed
We had a wonderful time over the Labor Day weekend at this house that had it all! We enjoyed floating in the lake, chilling by the water, sunning on the patio and everything this gem had to offer. The house was clean, fully stocked with everything we needed and a whole lot more! We definitely want to come back real soon!

We had so much fun. The place is even better than the photos. Had a little trouble with my GPS but that had nothing to do with our stay. Would definitely recommend.

This could be a great property. Big deck looking towards lake, but the leafs an sticks on deck were bad. Spiders also outside and inside the house. The kicker was a big cockroach on the kitchen floor when i came in the last night.

Fishing trip
The house is very nice and clean. It is in a good location with a nice big back porch overlooking the lake. I wish we had had more time. The beds are comfortable, and the kitchen appeared to be well equipped. Everything was well maintained and the host was great to deal with.

This was a wonderful place to vacation and had everything we needed. There was a marina right down the road to launch our boat. The house was situated where you got a cooling breeze of the lake while sitting on the back deck. That's saying something when it was over 100 degrees every day. The owner met us at the house and both were very helpful. Definitely a five star stay.

Wow, great weekend!
They met us at the door and even let us check in a little ealy, because we traveled from Wyoming. There were no surprises and the property was well maintained. They had all the essentials and a few extras, like bug spray, LOL. Loved every minute and we will be back. Thank you

Casa Reel- Really Great!
The house far exceeded our expectations. The host even had some of our favorite snacks for us! The lake and surrounding area had lots of fun things to explore and do. We enjoyed watching the annual fishing tournament weigh ins at the marina. We ended our stay with the entire family saying, “I wish we could stay longer!”
