Come relax at our waterfront property directly on Lake Palestine! Enjoy the whole three bedroom house to yourself, which comes fully stocked and comfortable. Lounge on the large shaded deck overlooking the lake, or roast marshmallows at the fire pit. The dock has excellent fishing and you have direct swimming access. Feeling more adventurous? Bring or rent a boat and tie up directly to the dock. The lake is massive and is great for water skiing/tubing, cruising, fishing, and swimming.
We use the property ourselves, and wanted to include everything we would use on vacation. Two rooms each have king beds, one room has two queens, and there is a pull out couch which allows sleeping up to 10 people. The kitchen is fully stocked with the essential cooking tools you might need. The large deck has a full table that seats six, with a lounging area to take in the gorgeous views of the lake.
You are only ~20 minute drive from the Tyler area, which has excellent food and entertainment options. Interested in antique shopping? If so, there are many opportunities in the adjacent small towns.
Need groceries? The drive to a Brookshires grocery story is less than 10 minutes away. There is also a Dollar General and Family Dollar ~5 minutes away.
*** Only guests listed on the reservation are allowed on the property. NO PARTIES. ***
*** NO Smoking in the house. NO pets. ***
*** There are four external cameras on the property for security: one facing the gate, one in the parking area, one on the right side of the house and a camera on the deck (this one has audio recording turned off). It is against our house rules to disconnect the internet connection. ***
*** When using the charcoal grill, be mindful of the flame + canopy. When using the chimney starter, put it on the lowest grate in the grill since it can have higher flames. ***
*** During growing season, we have the property mowed every two weeks on Wednesday after 9 AM. Usually doesn't take more than an hour. ***
*** Fire wood and charcoal are not provided. ***
*** Hot water is limited, based on the size of the water heater we can fit. Avoid long hot showers so you don't run out of hot water. ***
*** During the shoulder seasons and winter, we will take down the sun shades because of the wind. ***
*** PARKING ***
* Gated Driveway: Be careful driving through the gate and backing up. You are responsible for any damages done to our gate or our neighbors fence.
* Long Driveway: Can usually fit 3-4 vehicles. Can also fit a tuck and a trailer, with room for car parking.
* Parking on the street is available if needed.
*** FISHING TOURNAMENTS ***
* We have seen people fit two boats and two trucks in the driveway, but it is a tight fit. And it depends on the size of your boats on if this will work. If you have a large boat you probably will only be able to fit one truck and one boat. You can also park on the street as an option.
* Normal checkout is at 10 AM. Fishing tournaments are usually done by 3PM, which means you will have to get packed up and checkout by the time you leave on the last day of the tournament. If you need a later checkout than 12 PM, you will need to reserve that night at the property.
* We have one outlet you can use on the deck. I suggest bringing a 25' extension cord if you need to use it.
*** Security Deposit: A $400.00 deposit is required with each booking. A "hold" will be put on your credit card 2 days before your trip, and be released 2 days after departure. ***
