About this chalet rental
Cozy waterfront Chalet nestled in Big Thicket, 17 miles from Livingston, Texas, just outside Ace, TX, 56 miles north of Houston Intercontinental Airport.
This quiet, charming Chalet on a private cove will beckon you back, again and again!
Enjoy the slow pace, peacefulness and sheer beauty of nature all around you on this quiet fishing lake!
(NOTICE TO TRAVELERS: During drought conditions that cause low water levels, the floating deck sometimes becomes unavailable. We will always keep guests apprised of any such issues. At this time, the water level is now back up and the Floating deck is ACCESSIBLE!
Grab a beverage, a good book or fishing pole and come relax on the floating deck! Have breakfast, lunch or dinner there! Gentle movement on water is guaranteed to wipe your stress away! Sitting in the comfy Adirondack chairs underneath the deck's tin roof, enjoy sunlight dancing on water, or bask in the sun on the foredeck, letting all your cares drift away, or just take a little snooze if you wish!
Accommodations: 1 cozy loft bedroom with queen size bed, 1 downstairs bedroom with full- size bed, air-conditioned, woodburning fireplace, electric fireplaces, Internet (high-speed DSL), ROKU TV, Blu-ray player, Cassette player, movie library, small reading library including children’s books, games, large yard, grill, Chiminea.
Area is great for bird and nature watching, biking, running, or just strolling in the country!

ALL NEW APPLIANCES: Electric Stove with Air-Fryer/Convection Oven, Refrigerator, Dishwasher and
NEW and lovely, very comfortable, leather loveseat.

NO SWIMMING ALLOWED: This is a stocked fishing lake. We do not permit swimming. One reason is due to the close proximity of the Trinity River. An occasional Alligator has been known to visit and make it their home.
NO BOATS CAN BE BROUGHT IN.
Outside boats are not permitted on our lake. In the past, they were allowed. However, we incurred over $100,000 in fees to clean out what outside boats brought in. We had to kill all plant life, wait a year and are still working on replacing proper plant life in the lake.
Unfortunately, our boat sank in the boat slip due to being vandalized. Sadly, it is no longer available.
SECURITY CAMERAS: This property is monitored by live video security cameras 24/7. They are there for the security of the property as well as for guest’s security. Guests are welcome to unplug the cameras while on the premises. They just need to be sure to plug them back in prior to departing. Thank you in advance for your compliance!

It was better than we hoped due to the predicted weather. Although we did have some rain, we had a blast and hope to go back again. The Host was very nice, and easy to reach. Everything was neat, clean and welcoming about the house and property. Lots of squirrels, beautiful birds and butterflies, and even rabbits. The fishing was great !

I looked at several options and feel so fortunate that I chose this special home. Patricia, our host, made the stay feel especially welcoming with the heaters on, fragrant candles burning and pup treats for the furbaby. She filled the bird feeders so the birds, brilliant cardinals, goldfinch, yellow rump warblers were abundant the entire stay. A few feet from the front door. Patrica is super easy to communicate with also. The location couldn’t have been more scenic and soul refreshing. The “Chalet” felt like a resort but so homey. Well stocked kitchen with modern appliances, wood ready for the fireplace. Waking up in the loft looking out the at the beautiful sunrise and feeling like I slept at the top of the oak tree. Large fenced yard for the dog. Catch (and release for me) big catfish! Great Egrets, Blue Heron, gator in the distance.I plan on returning for a sister trip.

We loved the location of the property. The view and privacy were very nice. The outdoor seating was cute and eclectic, and we enjoyed the patio lighting. The property was very clean and cared for. All appliances worked well, and the manager was extremely attentive to insuring we had everything we needed.
