Catfish Cabin- cozy cabin near water in Texoma! Sleeps 4+

Our cabin is as close to Oklahoma City as any resort on the Oklahoma side of Texoma! Just 2 hours away!

Pull-through driveway makes for easy boat trailer in/ out. Has 2 bedrooms each with a king size bed. Two window seats double as beds for kids or younger/smaller adults. Great open concept kitchen, dining and living areas. Nice front deck. Rear gathering area with fire pit and charcoal grill. The lake is just a short stroll down the hill. Fish hot sand bass and striper action right from the beach! We have up to 4 kayaks available for a modest rental fee. New MegaStar Casino just across bridge on Oklahoma side.

Catfish Cabin

We were surprised that this cabin received a 9.8 rating. The sunroom had an offensive oder to it. The beds were comfortable however, the rest of the furniture were old and not very comfortable. The rocking chair had a broken arm. The door knob to the kitchen was placed on backwards. The weeds around the house were overgrown. This place needs some TLC. A little disappointed but we made the best of our 4 night stay.

Highly recommend this quaint log cabin for a great getaway

Even though we had to cancel our fishing charter we were still able to enjoy time with our friends while at the same time touring the area and sleeping comfortably in the catfish cabin. Communication with Jim was very pleasant and supportive. We will surely consider booking this property in the future.

Nice quiet visit

My husband and I came here for a couple day get away for our anniversary. Cutest lil cabin, walking distance to the lake and SO quiet. Fire pit area was our favorite. Had a fire with a cup of hot coffee and even enjoyed a few fireworks from the neighbors. Will definitely be back.

Rustic Cabin

The cabin is clean, beds a little soft but fine. Kitchen is good and plenty of pots/pans/dishes etc. However, the layout of the cabin is not what I would have expected. One of the bathrooms is off the covered patio and is essentially outside which might be great for hunters and fishermen who want to clean up before entering, but was not so great for us. We were two couples who had to share one bathroom while expecting to each have our own because it was listed as 2 beds, 2 bathrooms. It wasn't a serious problem for a short weekend, but the description did not make it clear that there was only one bathroom inside the actual living area. For the price we paid, I would have booked elsewhere had I understood the layout. The location is good for people who want to fish as it is a few minutes to the lake. We thought we could swim, but the shoreline is very muddy so best would probably be to drive elsewhere, we just decided to skip the swimming as it was overcast and rainy half the time. I would recommend the place to people who have a boat or just want to fish or relax. Definitely in a quiet area.

Catfish Cabin

The host quickly responded to messages and made my first stay with VRBO easy. The cabin was adorable and rustic. The power went out but they had candles on hand. The water was not easily accessible from the cabin but there was a nice swim area within walking distance. I do recommend renting the Catfish Cabin.

This was the perfect getaway for my family and I. A quick 1.5 hours from DFW and it feels like you getaway. Fall (October) was the perfect time to visit. Sherwood Shores Park has a nice beach, walking distance from the property. Lake Texoma is beautiful. The campfires were awesome. We made very special memories and had quiet time to hear God and get in His Word! It was a blessed trip and we hope to go back again one day too. If you are looking to get away, hang in the woods, make quality memories and aren't so bougee you need a fancy hotel, this place will meet your needs! Remember, it's called the catfish cabin!! :)

Texhoma fishing trip

furniture is little worn and sink in and chairs at table leg brace coming apart,.was expecting icemaker and wifi- not connected to internet. But this is a neat little cabin and decor is great. For two couples each having their own bathroom and both bedrooms. We never ran out of hot water, kitchen is very well stocked, and ac worked flawless and did toilets. We had a great time fishing and running around, and the cabin was trouble free. I highly recommend if you come to have fun and not needing internet. Out phone ran off our carrier data and several good restaurants close and marina and Charley Stringer was a great guide and we limited out. I would not think twice about booking again.
