We had a wonderful time, the place was cozy and charming, lots of outdoor fun, games and everything you need to make it a great vacation at Toledo Bend!
What an amazing spot! So quiet, beautiful and peaceful, which is what we were looking for. The Hosts were very responsive and helpful. The Fairmount General store in Hemphill had everything we (forgot to bring) needed and the people are SO friendly. We'd come back and stay here for sure!
Generally enjoyed our 3 night stay. Property was clean and well stocked. Description of 2 bathrooms is a little of a stretch as one of the showers is 2ft x 2ft and located in the watercloset. It was too small to even consider using and the sink for that bathroom was actually in the bedroom. Largest issue was the strong methane gas smell inside and outside. Host replied quickly to my message and had a neighbor (who was lovely) come by with deoderizers. It helped but only slightly. The smell may keep us away from booking again although I do acknowledge that the issue is probably not an easy fix for the host.
NEEDING A GETAWAY FROM CITY LIFE, WELL THIS IS IT!! AS SOON AS YOU OPEN THE DOOR THERES AN INSTANT SENSE OF CALM THAT RUSHES OVER YOU! ITS WARM, COZY AND THE VIEW IS AMAZING!! HOT TUB I LIVED IN THE ENTIRE WEEKEND, SITTING ON THE DOCKS AND WATCHING OUR KIDS. HUSBAND IN THE CANOE AND GRILLING IT UP ON THE OUTSIDE PATIO WITCH WAS SO ENTERTAINING WITH THE LUGHTS ALL ATOUND. NOT TO MENTION THE HOSTD HAVE THOUGHT OF EVERYTHING WITH APPLIANCES, COOKWARE AND SILVERWARE, A HOME AWAY FROM HOME. WHENEVER I HAD QUESTIONS THEY RESPONDED RIGHT BACK, SO LOVE THEM!! I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO TAKE YOU AND YOURS AND HEAD ON DOWN TO BURKEVILLE, NO REGRETS, NO DISAPPOINTMENTS!!
This place was wonderful. We had such a wonderful time with our family and we had a few friends come up to celebrate a birthday! The owners were super helpful and the house itself was very homey and clean. 10/10.
My family and a few friends stayed here for my daughter's sweet 16. The place was easy to find, clean, and well stocked. I loved the fact there were so many options for sitting outside. Unfortunately, Tropical Storm Beryl occupied 2 of our days but there were so many other activities to do the teenagers never got bored. The dock was a lot of fun and even with all of the rain we managed to fish everyday.

Property was super clean. Amenities were exactly what we wanted. It was a great experience. The location is ideal. We will come back to this place.
Great place for our family of 4. Outside space is fun and great for entertaining. Caught fish right of the dock!! Very clean and very well stocked. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our stay very much. It was very relaxing. Description of the property was accurate. The house was clean, and everything functioned properly. Neighborhood was quiet.
The property was perfect. The home was clean, had anything and just about everything you would need. The bed was so comfortable, i was looking to see what type of mattress it had. I love this place
We absolutely enjoyed this house. Feels like home. Very clean and so peaceful. They have anything you could possibly need. Our lab enjoyed the trip as well. The ONLY thing I would suggest with bringing a pet, make sure your dog isn’t picky. There isn’t much grass for them to use the bathroom and it was a fight every night. No fault to the home owners at all..it’s camping life. Maybe we just have a spoiled pup lol.
We will be back!
We enjoyed the stay and appreciated all the amenities the house had to offer, it was very quiet and peaceful. We really appreciated the bird feeders and houses. ( I didn’t receive the check out instructions email in time due to bad cell service )
We absolutely loved staying here! The neighborhood is great and is a close proximity to the state park, recreational area, and convenience store. This house is perfect for families with young children as there is so much to keep them entertained. From the dock on the grounds for fishing, to the hammock and kids rope course, to the bookshelf filled with games, they definitely had so much to do. Many memories were made here this week. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your home.
My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time for a short winter weekend. Would love to come back when the weather is warmer to enjoy all the amenities. Property was great, easy to get to, and completely accurate listing. We had a great relaxing stay.
We arrived to a clean and inviting property and were pleasantly surprised by the expansive backyard. The hot tub was super relaxing and we enjoyed the fire pit and dock. There’s even a little ropes course thing that was really fun! We played games, completed some puzzles, and made hotdogs. It was truly a perfect stay! We highly recommend this place!
