About this property

Your “Home Away From Home” with Private Lake, Covered Dock and Beautiful Views

Take a relaxing break in this cozy home with views of our beautiful private owned lake. Front porch or back porch; either place is the perfect spot for your morning coffee or to unwind at the end of your day.

Or, bring your fishing pole and go hang out at the lake. There is a covered dock with grill where you can relax too. Whether you choose to fish, take a walk around the lake, play board games or just hang out on a porch to read, there is plenty to do.

And…it’s just a short drive to town.
The space
This property features 3 bedrooms with queen beds and 2 bathrooms. The view of the spring fed lake is stunning from the covered back porch and fenced in back yard. It’s only surpassed by the amazing sky full of stars, winking at you all night long.

We have just completed the repainting of the outside of the house. Next, will be new landscaping. We look forward to posting new outdoor photos of our home as soon as the project is finished.

Our home is perfectly suited for a longer term guest….such as a traveling nurse. The home is fully stocked with all necessary kitchen equipment to make it feel like home away from home.
Other things to note
Amenities include golf cart riding, paddle boat and fishing. Waiver forms are required and there is an additional fee for use of golf cart.

Please note: Swimming in the lake is not allowed.

If golf is your thing….Lakeview Golf Course is only 2.5 miles away; about a 5 minute drive.

About the host

Hosted by Debra Boyd

Host profile image
I grew up in Blackshear; but made Texas home for most of my adult life. Had a wonderful career in Texas and raised my family there. After I retired, I started working with my husband in his business and as my parents aged, I found I was needed back on the homestead to care for them and the farm.
After some time, I decided to update the guest house and turn it into a short term rental. I have met so many wonderful people in the past year that I have been hosting. I never imagined little Blackshear would attract so many people, but I am so thankful that it does and that I have had a chance to get to know many of my guests.
My hosting style is go with the flow. I usually introduce myself since I live next door; but after that, I allow for my guests to take the lead. Some guests love visiting and others simply want to relax. Either way is fine with me. I simply want my guests to feel welcome and relaxed. At the end of the stay, it is my goal to have ultra happy guests who want to come back again and again. I hope that is how you will feel too. I look forward to meeting you one day.

Why they chose this property

This is the family farm where I grew up. We still plant crops every year….mostly cotton or soy beans these days. The farm is 60+ acres with a 10 acre lake. It is wonderful to sit on the back porch with a cup of coffee, glass of wine, or sweet tea and stare at the beautiful lake in the background.
Our lake features a covered dock and it is a great place to go hang out, read, fish, etc.
Everything is close by. You can drive to Blackshear in about 6 minutes or Waycross in less than 15 minutes. Having lived the fast pace life of Dallas for a lot of years, I love how slow it is here. I love that there isn’t rush hour traffic. I love that everyone is so friendly. I love that neighbors help neighbors.

What makes this property unique

I think we are unique because we are not located in a subdivision. Our place is a farm. As such, we have a couple dogs who are very friendly. They love people but they will not bother you if you are not interested in them. At certain times of the year, you will see deer roaming down by the lake and almost daily, geese on the lake.
