Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Joyce Repsher
Having being Texans for over 30 years, this lake house was the shared vision of my late husband "Doc" and me--the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of Dallas. Tucked away in a quiet cove, it offers magnificent sunsets, comfortable living, and endless water activities right at your fingertips. It is an ideal retreat for families of all ages to relax, reconnect, and enjoy time together.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood for its quiet atmosphere and uninterrupted lake views, free from facing the intense west summer sun. It feels like a true retreat, yet it is conveniently close to grocery stores, restaurants, and only a 30-minute drive from Tyler, TX.
