HIDEAWAY at HAWKINS!East TX LAKEFRONT Cabin in the Trees-Firepit-Private dockšŸŸ

šŸŽ£ Hideaway at Hawkins offers the PERFECT getaway on one of the clearest, most beautiful, spring-fed lakes in Texas!! Just steps away from the lake shore, come take in beautiful sunsets, fish, swim, boat, or just relax on the back deck or front porch. Our firepit near the water is also a fun gathering spot for roasting marshmallows or hotdogs!! Whether you're looking for a spot for a couple's getaway, a family gathering or a friend's trip, our cabin is all you need for a fun and memorable stay. The master bedroom has a comfy queen bed, en suite half-bath, dresser and full washer and dryer closet. There is also a queen sleeper sofa with new memory foam mattress (NOT an uncomfortable sleeper with bars poking through!) You'll find everything you need in the kitchen including a microwave and coffee bar ( coffee included!) If you prefer to cook your own meals, take advantage of the crockpot or full set of pots & pans. A GAS GRILL is also available on the back deck. The white bead board walls and ceilings, along with rustic barn doors, solid wood countertops and fun dĆ©cor offer a quaint farmhouse feel. Dining for 6, a writing desk, a flat screen TV and DVD player as well as Wi-Fi provide some of the comforts of home. The back deck is a great place to grill burgers or steaks and gather for a meal or drinks to take in all that the peaceful, forest-like surroundings provide. The lake is also home to a great Italian restaurant, A Taste of Italy, as well as The Shiver Shack (snow cones & ice cream), Snack Shack and R & C Beverage Mart and Bait Shop. Come see why Lake Hawkins is called the best kept secret in East Texas!! If you love boating or fishing, there's a private covered dock to tie up to or to fish from, just across the street, directly in front of the cabin. A public swim beach at Lake Hawkins County Park is down the road, just a couple of minutes away. Take a stroll or bike ride along the beautiful, scenic, winding road that lines the lake... great photo ops along the way!! Do you love antique shopping and visiting fun restaurants and junk stores? The towns of Mineola and Gladewater are just 15-20 min in either direction on Hwy 80 and Canton is just a 45 min. drive. Jefferson, Longview and Tyler are also nearby. Come check out these fun towns as well as other attractions in the area! Whether for a weekend or a week, Hideaway at Hawkins won't disappoint. We'd love to have you as our guests and hope you love being there as much as we do!

If interested in renting a PONTOON BOAT during your stay, please contact Tony Garner at (903)387-9944 for availability and pricing. Any rental or agreements will be strictly between the guest and the boat owner. We, as owners of the property, are just providing the contact info.

*NOTE - Check-out is 11:00am. Our housekeeping crew works on a tight schedule, especially on days with back-to-back reservations. Respecting this check-out time is greatly appreciated! A 15 minute grace period will be allowed for unforseen circumstances. Any late check-out past that time will be assessed a $5 charge for every 5 minutes past 11:15am. Please let the property owners know asap if there are unforseen circumstances or an emergency situation which causes a late departure.

*NOTE - The home offers Wi-fi/internet service but may occasionally have a weak signal, especially during storms. This is a rural, wooded, lake community that does not offer the same signal strength, and therefore reliability, found in urban settings. Please take this into consideration if you need to rely on it for work purposes. Cell phone reception (calling & texting) depends on carrier and generally works best by setting phones to Wi-fi Calling during your stay.

*FYI: During the spring, summer & fall months please know our lawn service will be by to mow the front yard and lakeshore area. He will be on and off the property quickly.

We mostly enjoyed. We had one trash can in 1/2 bathroom. The floor was gritty with sand. It would have been nice to know the Lake was being drained so owners could make repairs.

Great escape from the busy-ness of life
We really enjoyed our stay at this wonderful little cabin located right on Lake Hawkins. The private dock was perfect. We rented a boat and spent three wonderful days on the water. We lucked out and hit the sweet spot with perfect weather (mid 80's) and minimal other boaters since we stayed during the week. The cabin was a perfect size for the two of us and was well cared for. The lake is fairly small and we couldn't explore the north end due to stumps/trunks/branches sticking out of the water. So we kept the boat on the south end and enjoyed the peace and quiet and forgot about metroplex life for a few days. Watching the sun set from the middle of the lake was a treat!

The MOST relaxing weekend trip!
To start, our place was absolutely perfect and you can literally walk in with just your clothes and the basic of meals and be setup. The dock is just across the little ā€œstreetā€ in front of the house and was the most enjoyable part of the stay. The water is beautiful, the area is clean and well kept. If you walk around youā€™ll see plenty of deer and wildlife and the fishing was great! Itā€™s a 12 minute walk to the best Italian restaurant youā€™ll ever eat at (in Texas). We had cell service only about 20% of the time, a storm knocked the WiFi out for awhile and even before that service was sketchy. We didnā€™t mind that, at all! The listing and reviews mention it so we were prepared. Iā€™d definitely recommend taking a screenshot of the address and lock code to get into the house, before arriving! Otherwise youā€™ll panicking when your app doesnā€™t open lol. It was better than described and better than the pictures. We loved our time there and will be back!

Lovely and relaxing.
So nice to get away from the city. Quiet, relaxing. A herd of deer ran up the hill next to the cottage. Beautiful and exciting. The lake water is so clear. Our cottage was cozy and the mattress on the bed was very comfie. I love the curtains in the bedroom. Nice color. Thanks so much! Can you come decorate my home?šŸ˜

With the lake and dock out the front and woods behind, this home was a delight. The kitchen was well-appointed. WiFi strength was not impressive, but thatā€™s a part of the deal with many rural properties. Owners were immediately responsive to questions and/or problems. We were lucky to view the eclipse from the dock. Nice front porch and back deck. This was exactly what we were hoping for when we rented

Cozy Cabin on the Lake
Our stay was completely relaxing and peaceful. The perfect little get-a-way to the lake. The cabin had everything we needed and was beyond comfortable. Just steps away from the fire pit and the lake itself, created views and atmosphere that are hard to find anywhere else. Communication with the hosts was fast and easy. Definitely appreciated thier fast and detailed responses. If i had to give it 1 critique/suggestion it would be to have an axe/hatchet for the firewood and to keep the firewood covered/tarped. Once that wood gets wet, you wont be having a fire for days. Other than that, our stay was overall amazing and would definitely return. Thank you again šŸ˜
