The Shady Rest, pool, hot tub, fishing dock, dogs welcome

Located down Texanna in Sandy Bass Bay 3 (Jane's Jungle), this house is a close walk or golf cart ride to Lake Eufaula, Oklahoma beaches. We are within a mile of two launch ramps, and not far from Belle Starr Marina or Porum Marina and launch ramps. The other side of hwy 69 is Lake Eufaula State Park with many types of recreation including horseback riding and golf. Guests with kids enjoy Jelly Stone Park located at the town of Eufaula by the marina.

There is a large grassy tree lined front yard with plenty of parking for guests and toys. The Shady Rest downstairs has dining area, kitchen, full bathroom and living room with sliding glass door to the patio. Day beds make two twin beds. Upstairs has area with a twin bunk bed and closet on one side and a queen bed on the other.

The sliding door opens onto a pet friendly patio. Just through the next gate and up the steps behind the main lodge is the deck with conversation seating, hot tub and pool. The pool will re-open by the end of April. The owner shared seasonal above ground pool and year around hot tub are available for your use. Occasionally they must be closed without notice for maintenance, but generally we have them available for your enjoyment. Just a short walk to the lake for fishing or boating. There is boat parking with electricity, a fish cleaning station and minnow barrel for those here for pleasure fishing or tournaments. Contact us when you make your reservation if you need information about boat launching, fishing, docking and boat parking.

Great weekend!
My wife and I had an amazing weekend here. It was very cozy, clean, and peaceful. The hot tub was awesome! It was a great way to relax after a long work week. Glen and Kerry were awesome! Love the fresh eggs they gave us and their dogs are beautiful and super friendly. I would highly recommend staying here. Location is nice, right in between Checotah and Eufaula.

Dirty hot tub
Loved the owners/house/everything! Except the hot tub. It had brown sludge in it after they cleaned it, so we didn't get to enjoy that unfortunately.

Such a cute unique couple that we now consider friends! Great people to work with! Easy place to find, power hook up for our boat batteries, spacious, comfortable and clean! We can’t wait to stay there again on our next tournament outing at Lake Eufaula. Definitely gonna make extra time for the hot tub and back yard setting! They are friendly, helpful, and conversational great host! Something we love to see! Much appreciated.

One Night Stay
My husband, our two dogs and toddler had a one night stay at Shady Rest while we were visiting family in the neighborhood and we really enjoyed our time there. My only complaint was that the floors were pretty dirty and I had to make sure that my son and I were wearing shoes at all times because I forgot to bring socks for us. The hot tub was also not working. I loved the dog friendly patio and the couches/beds were super comfortable. We also couldn't figure out the smart TV, it was under the amenities listed, but we couldn't find out how to get to Netflix or any of the smart TV apps, so it may be useful to have some instructions on it. Luckily we ended up not really needing it. I was pleasantly surprised that it was actually bigger than it looks in photos, had a nice filtered water pitcher in the fridge and was quiet despite being pretty close to neighbors and the owners. We will definitely stay here again!

Anniversary get away
We were able to relax and get away from the day to day responsibilities. The location is quiet and near a finger of the lake so you can access the lake quite easily. It was very hot on our trip, so it was very comfortable in our little house with the mini splits. Our hosts were very kind. They have some beautiful dogs. Very friendly.
