Lakeview Escape: Charming cottage with private dock on Lake Holbrook

Relax, boat, fish, shop, eat…there’s something for everyone on Lake Holbrook with this 4 bedroom, 2 bath lake cottage. Enjoy beautiful lake views while sipping morning coffee on the front deck. Swim, fish, or just relax from the private dock on the lake. Bring your boat or jet skis and launch them from the public boat ramp directly across the street. Venture into downtown Mineola or Canton for First Monday Trade Days for shopping, drinks, and dinner before returning to catch the moonrise, roast marshmallows, and stargaze.

This newly remodeled 4 bedroom, 2 bath lake view cottage sleeps 11. The cottage has an outdoor living area on the expansive front deck overlooking the lake with multiple seating areas, a propane fire pit, and a grill. It also has a private dock on the lake that is accessible via a short footpath from the public boat ramp directly across the street. The cottage has a living room with a large, comfy sectional couch, a 65” smart TV with a Bluetooth sound bar that you can use to login to your streaming services and connect your devices, various card and board games, and countertop tables with stools for additional dining and game play space. The kitchen is fully stocked for all your cooking, baking and eating needs. The master bedroom has a king bed and full en-suite bathroom. There is also a queen bedroom, a bunk room with a twin over full bunk bed and a queen bed, a fourth bedroom with a twin daybed and twin trundle, and a 2nd full bathroom. Two beach chairs, two SUPs, and beach towels are provided, along with corn hole, washers, and badminton for outdoor fun. The cottage has a full circle driveway and parking pad for private parking, and there is a gravel lot across the street that can be used for overflow or boat parking, if necessary.

We are in a rural lake neighborhood that has a small public boat ramp directly across from the cottage, and a larger boat ramp with loading dock is one block over. The lake’s public beach, which is close to another large boat ramp and loading dock, is a 5 minute drive. We are a 10 minute drive to downtown Mineola, where you’ll find a variety of shops, restaurants, bars, and a local theater that shows some new and older releases, as well as local productions. We are also about 20 minutes from Lake Fork, 30 minutes from Canton First Monday Trade Days, 45 minutes from Tyler, and 1.5 hours from Dallas.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, featuring a kitchen with a refrigerator and an oven. There's a private patio. A Smart television and a DVD player are provided for your entertainment, while complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.

Pretty, Peaceful, well accommodating
We had 10 people stay here and it comfortably slept all of us. The house was very nice, accommodating, peaceful. The lake was a very short walk to a private dock. The host was very nice and always responding very quickly. We loved staying here, we will definitely be back to visit again. Thank you!!

Great Little Getaway
My family and I enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean, organized, and in a great neighborhood. Oddly enough, it felt like home and not at a rental property. Owners were outstanding and very easy to communicate with. Looking forward to going back.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!
This property exceeded our expectations wonderfully! The house was spotless, the amenities were great, and the owners made us feel very comfortable and communicated with us so well! The porch, fire pit, and seating were amazing! We had 6 adults and 3 teenagers and everyone had a bed to sleep in! The outdoor games were a fun part of the weekend! We will be returning!

Excellent Getaway
We had 7 adults and 2 kids in our group, and this house fit us all very well. The huge front porch complete with a fire pit and grill and patio sets with a beautiful view of Lake Holbrook were perfect for our fishing getaway trip. We originally came down to fish on Lake Fork only, but actually ended up catching more fish on Lake Holbrook. Owners were very responsive and quick to get us anything we needed and provided lots of info about the area. They also were flexible in letting us check in early. We brought down 4 bass boats and 4 trucks and had no issues parking 2 in the driveway and 2 in the small lot across the street. Dock on the lake was nice for fishing off of and swimming. Water was a little cold in March, but lots of items were provided for the lake, including paddle boards and some fishing gear. Was a short 15-20 minute drive to Lake Fork. Would also suggest eating at Josh’s Grill in Golden - delicious Salvadoran food.

This place is amazing! Great house and neighborhood, very very clean and neat! Perfect place to stay even with kids, we played yard games such as baggo and ladder toss with the kids! Awesome view of the lake with a nice boat ramp straight infront of it! The kids also loved taking the complimentary paddle boards on the lake! Highly recommend this listing!

Amazing View with Fantastic Hosts
This place made my 51st birthday extra special. Lisa and Derek are the BEST hosts. They are extremely helpful. They provide the perfect lake and land amenities... football, Frisbee, corn hole, soaker guns... the list keeps going. They even thought of the little things... like providing an electric air pump for our tubes. The house was extremely clean and decorated so cute with a nautical theme. I cannot wait to go back.
