Restful, relaxing, rejuvenating!
This group of four ladies have been on many trips together over the last 15 years, and this was by far our favorite location. The lake house was spectacular - clean, comfortable, plenty of room to gather or have individual space, excellent amenities, well appointed kitchen with EVERYTHING we could have needed. Appreciated the welcoming touches of signage/instructions - even S’mores makings, though sadly we didn’t partake. We initially were drawn to the property because of the many relaxing outdoor gathering areas, and these didn’t disappoint - screened in porch for morning coffee, outside deck for lunch, fire pit area, and adult beverages on the dock watching the sunset. Wow! The weather was perfect and we all agreed this was one of our favorite adventures. We also got tickets for the last Wine Train of the season on the Texas State Railroad. If you have a chance to go, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for sharing your lovely home, Leslie. It was definitely the getaway we all needed!

Great place, but you’ll be watched.
The house was great, right on the lake with its own dock and all the amenities were there. Our problems were with the owner. She’s got notes ALL over the place, which most times can be helpful, but this time it felt intrusive. “Don’t use too much toilet paper!” Put it all in a book of house rules. Our 1st convo was her instructing us to limit showering and not to use the washer due to recent high rainfall. It’s hot& the lake smells like fish and you’re asking us to not take showers? She then said that there’s an extra lockbox in case the electronic lock on the front door doesn’t work. It didn’t work, and it took her almost 30min to get back to me to get the code for this lockbox “i haven’t used in a while, I hope the code’s correct!” The lock didn’t respond multiple times throughout our visit and at one point the code itself wasn’t working, which made it difficult for the 5 of us to have our own plans with just 1 key. She then used her smart thermostat in the house to change the temp we had set it to without our knowledge! We woke in the night sweating and uncomfortable b/c of that. I can’t believe that someone would do that to their guests. Apparently, in her house you’re not allowed to go outside of 73-78F, which wasn’t posted in her many notes throughout the house. I we did have it pretty low, but it seems she’s concerned w/ saving $, not her guest’s comfort. Have fun with that.

Paradise on the Lake
Peaceful and beautiful. The ONLY thing that could have made this experience better was more time there! The house had everything you could need. It was cute, comfortable and very clean. The back porch and deck and boat dock were awesome. I caught nine fish off the walk to the dock in less than an hour. We sure hope to become regulars at this spot. Leslie is an excellent host. Thank you so much.

Last summer trip
We absolutely loved our stay at the beautiful, peaceful home! The dock was amazing to just sit out and watch the water and feel the breeze! My kids caught 15 fish!!! That was so fun! We kayaked, paddle-boarded, and floated around! My kids loved the Sandy- bottom beach! The beds were very comfortable and the home was beautiful, clean, and offered so many things that made it feel like we were at home. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful during our entire stay! It was just the trip we needed before school starts!

Great time with family.
Reasonably nice property that is somewhat dated. Bunk beds are apparently counted as sleeping accomodations for 6 people (3 in each). My grands are young adults and there was no way they were able to use the upper bunks or 2 people in the lower bunks. Should be detailed info on weight limit for upper bunks. All that said we had a great time and enjoyed our long weekend.

Great Stay
We enjoyed our stay here. There was 2 paddle boards, an adult kayak, and 2 kids kayaks. The water was amazing; clean sandy bottom and warm. There was a lot of seating indoors and especially outside, that we enjoyed utilizing. Our host answered all of my questions and needs right away. Even with the 17 hour car ride we'd consider coming back!

Simply Exceptional
As a VRBO Property Owner by default we set a very high bar when we stay at other properties. With the above said, I recently had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful house on Lake Palestine, Texas, and I can confidently say that it was a truly wonderful experience. The house itself was a haven of comfort with tasteful decor that exuded warmth and charm. The owners had clearly paid meticulous attention to detail, as every amenity one could desire was readily available. One of the highlights of my stay was the breathtaking view from the house's windows. We spent many hours on the deck, having morning coffee and enjoying the nature. The house also featured a private dock, allowing easy access to the water for swimming, fishing, or simply enjoying the gentle lapping of the water. In conclusion, my stay at this Lake Palestine house was a terrific experience. From the stunning location and well-appointed accommodations to the warm hospitality of the host, everything was simply exceptional. I highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat in the heart of Texas.

Great lake house
We rented a boat for a day and used the house as base camp. It worked out perfectly. You can easily tie up to the dock and go in the hosue for a break. The kids had a blast taking out the kayaks they provided and playing ping pong in the garage. There were snore fixins greeting our arrival and we had s’mores - after picking up some firewood on our shopping trip. They are also set up to be pet friendly with a dog crate in thr covered patio and place to feed the dogs there as well. Screened in covered patio was a great place for us to play a game. Great lake house with plenty of room for us (10 people and a dog).

Birthday trip
We had a good stay. Caught lots of fish from the boat dock. I gave a 5 star rating because the inside of the house is very nice and clean. The outside of the house is ok, but needs some spring cleaning. The host was very responsive with communication. Also, the host recommended a restaurant for my husband’s birthday dinner in Tyler named Javi’s and it was fantastic! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Host profile image
Mom of 3 boys. We have so many wonderful family memories at this home. We come out as often as possible in between the kids crazy extra curricular schedules. I hope you find as much enjoyment here as we do!

Why they chose this property

With such great open spaces and so many places to relax, this is the perfect spot for family and friends. The screened porch is so nice in the rain or to escape mosquitos. The open deck is wonderful for an open air dinner by the grill. The firepit landing is perfect for late night lounging and star gazing and the dock is the SPOT for sunsets. We fell in love with this home right away and have never looked back.

What makes this property unique

This property is in a wonderful spot on the lake - near deep water and the dam- and we would be happy to recommend boat rentals or jet ski rentals as well.
