About this property

Gorgeous Hidden gem Lake front Studio. No cleaning fee. Pet friendly

Lake front studio is located on 2 1/2 acres of grass and majestic oak trees. There are solar string lights in the trees that come on at night creating an enchanting wonderland. This lake front gem sports a fully stocked kitchen. Washer and Dryer. Luxurious bath with two person whirlpool tub and two person double shower head shower. Your own private deck to enjoy the sunset. Invite friends and family for s'mores at the fire pit. Come have a mini staycation . Take the complimentary kayaks, paddle boards, or canoes out or bring your own boat. A Boat ramp is quite close. Run away from the hustle of the city. Watch the wind blow the water. Drift away with the clouds. Guest should know that we are in unincorporated Denton County. When you turn on Doe Branch Road you will drive past some trailer houses and junk cars. I share this with you, so you, might not judge my neighbors. It is extremely quiet and safe out here. If you are looking to escape the concrete jungle, then you have found your peace and calm. Located on Lake Lewisville; We are 10 min from Legacy West in Frisco. 10 min from the mall in Frisco. 10 min from the cowboys new stadium. 10 min from downtown Denton. 12 min from Prosper. 5 min from Aubrey. There are two short term rentals on site. Our property is 2 1/2 acres with the cottage on the far left and the studio on the far right. The owner lives on site in the main house.

Cozy

It’s a charming little room by the lake. The kitchen has everything you need to cook whatever you want, and the owner let us use some kayaks to take advantage of the beautiful lake in the property. It’s in a nice location too, since there are some trails to walk nearby, as well as some grocery stores and places to eat within less than 10 minutes driving. Would love to come back and will definitely recommend to anybody looking to stay near Little Elm, Dallas, or Grapevine.

Best 4th of July weekend staycay

Amazing stay once again. This place never disappoints. We enjoy playing on the lake, fishing and just enjoying the view and time away from all the distractions. Staying for the 4th of July weekend had the added bonus of multiple fireworks to watch. This may become our new family tradition, it was so fun! We hope to be back sooner rather than later. Thanks again!

Best relaxation ever

I was having a lot of stress due to a heavy workload and so was my partner. We were able to bring both dogs who had such a ball with all of the open space and the water.. will definitely recommend to friends family and everyone. For sure coming back. The only bad thing I can say is I can't give any more stars as this place deserves more than 5.

Great spot for a small get-together!

We loved our stay at this property. I've always had some hesitations about staying at places that are attached to the owner's home, but it was a total non-issue here. The space is very private, and the owners are present and helpful, but definitely give you your space. The yard and the access to the lake were utterly perfect, the bed was comfy, and the bathroom/shower/bathtub were super luxury-feeling. We had a small get-together here with some friends, because our friends all live in small apartments and nobody really has the space to entertain everyone. This spot was perfect for a mostly-outdoor get together/cookout you might have at a beach or park, but with quiet and privacy and the convenience of a private bathroom, a full kitchen, and an air-conditioned space to cool off when we needed it!

Peaceful, lovely lake view

No banging doors, quiet neighbors, front row parking, responsive and kind hosts. 100 degree heat had the ac unit working hard, but with the box fan blowing on me at night—I stayed cool. Main bed (and selection of pillows) super comfy. My friend slept on pull out and felt the bar thru mattress. Lots of large fluffy towels, for bathroom and lake (easily distinguished). I would’ve liked more washcloths, a bath mat (just used a towel), as well as a soap pump and hand towel for each bathroom sink, but I didn’t ask for more (and there was a washing machine had I been so inclined). Little (harmless) flies everywhere, I brushed them off the door at night -before- entering, after making the mistake of welcoming them in the first night (maybe not an issue if you return after dark). I also didn’t check outdoor seat cushions before sitting outside in the morning, and there were small piles of dead ones on the cushions. The porch cushions, table and rails could benefit from a wash/spray down due to bugs dead and alive, webs... I didn’t try the watercraft, but what an inviting array—I even saw a host washing them (and life vests) down on my last morning. Hosts thoughtfully provided some bottled water in fridge, but I do recommend bringing more bottled water to stay hydrated in the Texas heat if you’re picky about tap water (like me!). If you’re looking for a getaway in Little Elm area, this is it!

Located on 2 1/2 acres of mature oak trees and 235 lineal ft of sandy beach is a small slice of heaven waiting for your next staycation or get together with friends. It is our biggest delight to share it with you. We have two properties. The cottage and The studio. See you soon.

What makes this property unique

Our property is a natural habitat with all Gods creatures. If you like painted sunsets. If you like watching the wind caress the water. If you like Kayaking or paddle boarding. Sitting by a bon fire with friends and s'mores. Then our property is for you. Private beach and beach chairs. Hang out and enjoy the peace and quiet or close enough to all the action in Frisco, Denton, Prosper, Aubrey, Pilot Point ect...
