Lake Cabin Escapes: Enchanted Cottage

Host awarded with "Tyler short term rental named No. 1 in Tyler Area for 2018". The Enchanted Cottage, a Rustic/Modern cabin built on a fairly steep slope under a canopy of towering hardwood trees w/ Waterview of Lake Palestine. We custom built w/ local woods: cypress, cedar, white & red oak, & pine. Look for the Bald Eagle on the porch. 0ur theme is interesting places out of classic films. On her first visit, my mother suggested the name from the Classic film-The Enchanted Cottage 1945.


We are available by phone or text anytime. We do live nearby and are available if needed, but we do respect the privacy of our guests. We may occasionally be seen farming, walking, or out working on the landscape:) we have 5 cabins total, you may see other guests on the property, but each cabin has its own secluded porch, fire pit area and separate drive. Each space is very private.
The hot tub and deck with outdoor lighting is shared by all 5 cabins. It is centrally located in a wooded area, great outdoor spot to sit in the hot tub and star gaze!

Secluded area near Lake Palestine. The Tyler lift station is nearby and can be heard with a steady water flow sound. Brookshires Grocery store is 1 mile away.. a few fast food places are nearby. The Villages Marina is 4 miles away. It is about a 20 minute drive into Tyler for restaurants and shopping! We are in the woods, but close to Tyler, Texas! There are several cute rural towns nearby with some local wineries and antique shopping to explore also!

Fishing is available at the shoreline of nearby fishing spots! Our cabins are built for enjoying the outdoors not for indoor TV watchers…We have limited internet and zero cable available here:) so come sit on the porch and enjoy the view or build your own campfire and enjoy the stars!!

Enchanted Cottage porch has the feel of a treehouse with a canopy of timber towering all around it. Great views for morning coffee & looking for bald eagles! The loft bedroom is built for romance with a king size bed & a high ceiling with fairy lights:) The Cabin is perfect for romantic getaways. What makes it unique is the compact luxury/roughness. Come see to understand. It is ideal for couples, but can accommodate a small family. It is a small space for more than 2 adults. D

We are 15 minutes from Tyler, but the Cabin is in the woods and Nature is all around, this includes insects, critters of all kinds including snakes, all types of birds including Bald Eagles, roadrunners and songbirds! Be cautious of poison ivy and insects when out exploring!

There is a wild beehive near this cabin, it comes and goes, most active in the Spring. They don’t bother you if you don’t bother them, and we have the area clearly marked! Chiggers are out in the tall grass by May 15th throughout the summer. Advised to use insect repellent when exploring.

I booked this property for a birthday weekend getaway for my sister and myself. We wanted a quiet place with a porch and a great view to spend the weekend reading. This was definitely all that! It was far enough out to make us feel surrounded by nature, but close enough to get to Tyler to shop and eat. The place had all the little extras to make our stay great. The only difficulties we noticed (and it wasn’t that much of one) was the very steep ladder to get to the loft where the bed is. Also it’s a rather inclined area to get to the car from the cabin. For anyone who these things wouldn’t be a problem, this is the place for you!

Overall our stay was great! It was exactly what we needed to get away!
The cottage was so comfy and cozy! It was perfect for my wife and I. The trail to get there was pretty small, with lots of bushes on each side. The cottage was very secluded and a great escape! Town was only a few minutes away, which made grabbing dinner or groceries super easy! The manager was quick to reply to all of my questions! The weekend was great!
