Everyone loved the Rustic atmosphere. The kitchen is roomy, with a large dining area & family den where everyone could gather and visit. There are two bedrooms downstairs, one with a queen bed (the grandmothers took that one), one with four twin beds and a bunk bed, so six family members could comfortably sleep there. There is also a large bathroom with big mirrors & two sinks, so everyone could get ready for our event. Upstairs has a long dormitory style room with six twin beds & a couch. There is also a large closet, bathroom, and washer & dryer. The place was perfect! Our family from Missouri, Illinois, Texas & South Africa was enchanted with the tall pine trees, the friendly cats, dogs, and horses on the property. You just need to bring food if you plan to cook in the cabin, and toiletries, as none are provided. Don't forget salt & pepper like we did, but if you do, there is a convenience store at FM1275 & Loop 224 that has everything!

We had our college Aggie Corps buddies reunion this past weekend; Pat's Place was the perfect place. There are now 6 more couples from all over Central and East Texas who know about Vacation Country Rentals. They are already spreading the word. Mark and Brenda are such wonderful proprietors they deserve the acknowledgement. Book your stay, get ready to have all your expectations met, and please respect the property. Help us repeat users continue to enjoy what Vacation Country Rentals has to offer. Let's all do our part to keep the houses and grounds in great shape. I would recommend you bring your own pillows just because we all get used to our own special comforts. Cathy

We stayed at The Gregory. The house was well laid out and we didn't want for much. There's a nice…read morecovered front porch and the backyard area is great, including two porches - one uncovered directly attached to the house and one separate covered porch / veranda. The separate veranda was great and included its own lighting and ceiling fan. The rest of the yard was spacious and was great for the kids. If you're there to watch TV and not enjoy the lake or great outdoors, you'll be disappointed in the number of channels and reception/HD quality, but this wasn't an issue for us. We weren't there to watch much TV. :) (We did have a few football games on the background, which is why I'm noting the # channels and picture quality.) The lake was a fairly short walk away and the pier area was great. The kayaks were very nice and seemed like new. There are a lot of piers that are in close proximity, so you definitely share the area, but this didn't bother us at all. I will say that there are quite a few stairs leading to and fro the pier / water area, so it might not be friendly for folks who are older, have bad knees, aren't in as good shape, etc. But the access didn't bother us at all. There are bait shops walking distance and a boat ramp with $5 access. Crockett has plenty to offer, including restaurants, bars, an HEB (and yes, a Wally World), and shops. And then the national forest isn't far either, so you have access to pretty much everything you need for a great outdoorsy getaway. The owners really helped make the trip. Great hospitality, super responsive and helpful, and easy to work with. Customer service makes all the difference in the world! We'd recommend this place to any of our friends! And a lot of the other rentals in the area looked pretty awesome, too, from the outside. One of the houses actually ON the water would be pretty sweet, although we used our backyard quite a bit, too. Lots of local options.

One thing I love about this place is it's less than 10 minutes from Lake Naconiche. (That lake is a bass fisherman's dream) This place has great cabins and numerous RV spots. There's also a nice pond (mini-lake actually) on the premises where you can fish, kayak, and swim. It's stocked with Largemouth, Crappie, Bluegill and Catfish. It's a strict C&R pond. The cabin we stayed in will house a small family comfortably. The cabins come with fully functioning kitchens (with dishes and cookware) and are kept cool in the summer with multiple air conditioners. Renee (one of the owners) is always available to answer questions or provide you with help to insure your stay is as enjoyable as possible. If you're looking to getaway for the weekend, this is the place to stay. You'll enjoy the comfort and great scenery.

Served us well! 5/5…read more Stayed Jan 2018 Darlene T. Pretty inside & out, soothing woodsy setting w/ the amazingly perfect windows to enjoy it. Subdued, tasteful, mostly utilitarian decorating instead of overload you see in some cabins or B&Bs. Hosts literally thought of EVERYTHING you might need, name it. An extremely well-stocked kitchen & bathroom & shockingly generous supply of edibles/drinkables/goodies. We used the chiminea (fat sticks easily gleaned from yard to feed it) & also the little grill, nice. Enjoyed the whimsical yard art, again, liked their tastes. There was even a bottle tree outside to trap bad spirits, must be doing its job, lol. Reception for Wi-Fi and cell good. There were CDs & DVDs & a player but the TV also had cable, so 7 channels, I think, hope you like old Westerns & Forensic Files reruns, we did. Of the few DVDS they had, one was an older fave of ours, The Good Girl, so great to see again. Was cool, rainy weekend so we didn't walk afield, maybe next time but then next time might order up another rainy weekend, works for us. A few times we heard a braying donkey neighbor some distance, didn't bother us, made up for not hearing or seeing much of the wildlife other reviewers talked about. Did see birds, squirrels and an armadillo. When I say hosts thought of everything, I mean it, no, really, you'll find every single little thing you'd ever need, plus books to read (finished one from home and left it & a magazine for the stack) & cabin had a binder of instructions about anything & everything inside the place (check it out, we found lots of crucial info in there) plus a roundup of local things to do, nice mentions of the very fine Caldwell Zoo & the Tyler State Park. We welcomed guidance on how to start shower (pull ring down from faucet, aha!). If I had to say anything remotely negative it's that the steep stairs challenged me as I'm recovering from an injury. But the bed at the top made up for it. What else. Well, it was just nearly too perfect & afraid we might have trouble booking it during later, finer weather. We'd gone there for the singer-songwriter series, this one for the insanely talented Jeff Black who performed at the Old Firehouse. We had to skip out of the performance halfway through & head home early, ever-on-call husband had sudden work obligation pop up so we didn't get all the good out of Edom, our cabin & the concert, but we still left happy. Thx to you, Mr/Mr W

Bring your cast net so you can catch fresh bait from the pier. Dog friendly RV park as well.

We stayed in cabin 3 and it was very cozy and comfortable. Access to the lake and piers were easy and we were able to get in hours and hours of fishing. You must understand what you are renting. This is not the San Luis in Galveston or the Caribe in Orange Beach Alabama. These are small, lakeside cabins where you go to relax and get away. Even at full capacity, the resort was quiet and peaceful. The cabins were furnished with everything you could need in the kitchen INCLUDING COFFEE. Pots, pans, dishes and silverware. There was no dishwasher in cabin 3 but that's not a big deal. We are already planning a return trip for the same length of stay in the not too distant future. If you enjoy nature and like supporting locally owned small businesses, this would be a perfect option for you.
