Private Cottage at Lake Fork Texas. Fishing and Fun!
You and your family can enjoy the beautiful East Texas sunrise and sunset in Emory TX, fish top rated Lake Fork (a public boat ramp is located 3/4 of a mile from our property), watch the deer feeding in the early mornings and evenings, or fish in our pond for Channel Catfish and Bream. You can also visit First Monday Trade Days in nearby Canton. Our home has a 50 amp plug in for EV charging.
This cozy cabin was perfect for my family! The hosts are very gracious and did an amazing job making this property unforgettable. We will definitely be coming back!
This is sweet and spacious property. I had a few family and friends over and it worked out so well. Plenty of room!
The hosts are so nice and very helpful.
The Lazy 8 Cottage is on a beautiful East Texas property. Lance and Pat were the best hosts that I have ever encountered. I usually rent a home by a lake to fish tournaments or for fun, usually with one or both of my sons. This time, I was visiting Lake Fork with my oldest son and we were in a tournament on Sunday. Before we arrived, Lance did an amazing job of communicating all the details I needed to know. Upon arrival, I was blown away with the layout and detail of the property. It was obvious Lance and Pat are detail oriented owners. There was every item we needed to make our trip perfect. There is a washer and dryer, we used the dryer to dry out our rain soaked gear. The kitchen was fully stocked, coffee bar even had an option for frothed cream, and the charcuterie board that was waiting for us was over the top. The location can't be beat. There is a boat ramp right up the road. I will absolutely make this my top choice the next time I return to Lake Fork.
Lazy 8 is such a neat place especially with all of the extras the property has. The She Shed is such a cute place, the stocked pond, the picnic area and the entire property is a secure area with the gated entrance . We will be coming back. It is also a perfect place for a girls trip
We were very impressed with the property. Very clean and inviting. The decor was fitting of a country cottage. We were in the area for fishing so we didnât get to explore the area that much or the property itself as it has a small pond for fishing and a she shed. We both agreed that this would be a great place to take the family next time weâre in the area.
Originally from Carrollton TX, we were introduced to the beautiful East Texas area by some friends. That began our journey of falling in love with the country! We found 8 acres of raw land and purchased the property in 2015. We have spent the last 8 years clearing and developing the site. In 2018 we built our cottage to stay in on weekends and extended vacations. One year ago, we completed construction on our retirement home and moved to our property to live full time.
During our travels in the US and Europe we have always chosen to stay in short-term rentals to get a feel for the area and meet local people. This process led us to our current adventure of hosting our cottage on VRBO.
Our goal is to provide our guests with a relaxing, comfortable, and enjoyable time while they experience beautiful East Texas. We look forward to having you as a guest!
We chose our property because it is in the country, but conveniently located 5 miles from Emory TX. This makes shopping and eating out easy. The renowned Lake Fork is located 1 mile from our property, which provides wonderful opportunities to catch the next Texas lunker bass or a nice stringer of crappie!
Our property is private (gated entry), quiet, and peaceful. It has a stocked fishing pond for our guests use. We have boat parking and charging, outside 50 amp plug for EVs, and fire pit area to relax around.
