A cabin like experience in a wooded country setting. It has it's own entry and front porch though it is part of the main structure. We keep it sparkling clean and tidy.

There is a nice cozy queen size bed, if there is a 3rd guest we have an extra twin size mattress in the closet for your use. Children should be at least 13 years of age.

Caddo Lake Wildlife Refuge  *** (formally)  Longhorn Army Ammunition Plant

There is so much to do and go see here at Caddo Lake. Right here in Karnack just a few minutes away is the Caddo Lake National Wildlife Refuge.  There are miles of heavily wooded hiking trails, free kayak/canoe launch onto waterway "F", a bird blind for those who enjoy birding, and it's loaded with all sorts of wildlife. You even stand a very good chance to see live alligators in the wild there.  Heres a link to their site https://www.fws.gov/refuge/Caddo_Lake/visit/visitor_activities.html

. Then there is Caddo Lake State Park and it has a fishing pier, nature trails for hiking, a boat launch and swing set for the children. Here's a link to the park  https://tpwd.texas.gov/state-parks/caddo-lake

 Then there the town of Jefferson with all its antique shops. Here's a link to Jefferson https://visitjeffersontexas.com/

There is just so much to do on the lake. For those with a boat there is water skiing, or pull the kids down the bayou on a raft, fishing is great all over the lake and if you have a kayak, canoe or jetski there is a maze of waterways to travel down and explore. 

For those who enjoy Bass Fishing

Here at the Hideaway we are just down the street from the National Wildlife Refuge and there is a very nice free boat launch there in the refuge that puts you right on waterway "F".  There is a floating walkway out to a floating dock that has a kayak slip attached to it.  There is also a real nice gazebo there as well as a new public restroom building.  Its a great place to start out your day fishing there. We have caught alot of fish there on "F". There is a gate at the entrance of the park and it is open from dawn till dusk. Entrance to the Wildlife Refuge is free. 

  You will find a couple of fishing rods and a tackle box with some lures in it for those who do not have any fishing equipment. For those who do have fishing equipment I suggest braided line and top water lures for the lily pads.
