About this property

Private, Relaxing Waterfront Getaway! 3BR/2BA House! Modern Amenities!

  • 3BR/2BA house overlooks a 2.5 acre stocked pond just steps from the front porch. Sleeps 10, Fire pit, kids activities, kayak, boats, hammock, lots more! Perfect place to go to recoup from busy life, reconnect with family or friends.

    The house has everything you will need for your stay, except clothes and food! This fully remodeled home has a full kitchen with stainless appliances, granite counter tops, washer and dryer (detergent supplied), dishwasher (detergent supplied), garbage disposal and every small appliance you could possibly want. We offer free WiFi, big screen smart television in the living room with Direct TV and a television in each of the three bedroom with Roku or Fire Stick streaming.

    The bedrooms offer a California King bed, King bed and 2 bunk beds with double beds on bottom and twins on top. The beds are comfortable with luxurious bedding to make you feel pampered. We also have a blow up mattress and linens and pillows for it. We have a portable, tabletop fan in each bedroom, as well as sound machines. There are luggage racks, large closets with hangers, an ironing board and iron, and full length mirrors in each bedroom. There is a pack-n-play for the little one, booster seat, a baby gate and nursery lol monitor.

    One bathroom has a tub/shower combination. The other bathroom has a walkin shower. There are hotel style bathrooms towels, hand towels and wash cloths, as well as makeup (removing) towels. There is a blow dryer in each bathroom. There are bath products and bath toys for smaller children.

    Beautiful 2.5 acre stocked pond steps from the front porch. The fishing pier is available for fishing or catching some sun. There are deck chairs, an aluminum boat, and a fire pit with Adirondack chairs, blankets and marshmallow roasting sticks! Ample parking for several vehicles and room for your boat. The dual BBQ grill (butane or charcoal) is ready -you supply the burgers or steaks! Bring your fishing gear, your float or a good book-the rest is waiting for you.

    Nestled in the trees, this family oriented retreat feels remote & secluded. In reality you are actually only minutes away from many modern conveniences. There are many outdoor opportunities in the area for nature lovers. If that’s not your thing, we are within a short driving distance to shopping, dining and other entertainment opportunities.

    You are literally in the backyard of Caney Lake and the Spillway. This hidden gem is a stone's throw away from the public boat launch. Caney is known for its bass and crappie fishing, as well as recreational water sports. Hooks Marina has live bait, boat fuel, food and a fun outdoor dining experience with live entertainment on most weekend nights.

    You are 10 minutes from Chatham. Chatham has a Family Dollar Store, two convenience/grocery stores, a restaurant and a bank.

    Jimmie Davis State Park is 9 minutes away with its renowned fishing, many miles of hiking & biking trails, large public beach and picnic area, as well as a splash pad for lots of family fun. There are several boat launches, as well as RV spots, and other facilities for rent.

    Jonesboro (25 min) has a Walmart, grocery store, banks, hardware store and an abundance of fast food & dine-in restaurants. One can have a full day of fun wandering through the 4-5 antique/flea markets in Jonesboro. This is also the nearest trauma hospital to our location.

    Historic downtown Ruston is 35 min away. Home of LA Tech, the famous Peach Festival and many unique shops and restaurants.

    West Monroe and Monroe (45 min) have many recreational opportunities, antique & retail shopping and unlimited dining options.

    The house is within easy driving distance to many other fishing and recreational lakes and rivers. When the fish don’t seem to be biting at one you have lots of other opportunities nearby.

    If gaming is your thing the Choctaw Pines Casino is 1 hour away. An hour and 45 minutes away are many casinos, shopping opportunities and dining in Bossier City and Shreveport.

    This property has been in our family for over 100 years. My grandfather (Pawpaw) built this house himself in the mid 1980’s. He stayed busy into his early 90’s; he enjoyed mowing his own yard, cutting his own fire wood, building deer stands and fighting off beavers and alligators. He loved nature and all it had to offer-duck hunting, deer hunting and, well, just about any kind of hunting. He enjoyed watching and feeding the birds, squirrels, and deer on his property.

    His pride and joy was the pond. He loved to help and watch the generations of his family fish in his pond. He would wait to feed the fish when the great grand kids were around just to watch their faces light up. If you reeled in a big one he would get the scale so he could weigh it. If it was a ‘good one’ he’d sometimes make you toss it back to grow bigger.
