Cabin is clean and cozy with a beautiful lake view. Beds were comfy and everything was very easily laid out and the hosts were helpful. We loved how there was a record player for music too. ##### Lauren M.

The only area of improvement is the Wifi, it's terrible. ##### Pablo Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica Aug 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We had a blissful week at Idabel lake. The cabin was comfortable with lots of extra and helpful features - games, DVDs, books, toys and of course the record player. We had fabulous days paddling on and playing in the lake & lovely evenings BBQing on the deck & relaxing with the stunning lake view beneath us. Our kids also loved the games room & playground. The internet is weak and slow as it is satellite, so expectations should be managed in this regard. We very much hope to come back! ##### Jessica Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### cindy n.
