We were so impressed with the little guest cabin. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the hosts are so welcoming down to home made goodies! We would definitely recommend this rental.
Frank and Linda were wonderful hosts, & the property itself was picturesque and exactly what my partner and I were looking for. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the patio before kayaking then getting dressed and heading into Jefferson to explore the town. We would definitely stay here again!
This was a great place to stay for the weekend. Close to Jefferson and some really good wineries. Hosts were very attentive and sweet. Will go again. :)
Perfect way to escape the city. Didn’t hear a car for almost 3 days. Tucked away with water access. The bed is too comfortable. Hard to get out of bed. (Good thing) Saw a bald eagle! Muffins were the best I’ve tasted in my life. 10/10
Me and my husband and our medium size dog were very comfortable in this cute little cottage! We had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend getaway. The hosts are good people and even provided homemade cookies and doggie treats!
Our weekend getaway was perfect. Just what we needed away from the big city. Beautiful scenery and amazing host! Thank you Second Wind for a wonderful anniversary weekend!
This place was amazing. The hosts were the best part. They were very nice and accommodating the whole week we stayed. As a nice extra touch they had cookies and a cake for us on arrival!!! The house was clean and quaint, right on the lake. We had a wonderful time fishing and sitting on the back porch. A definite must if staying on this lake.
Frank and Linda were very accommodating from the start of us pulling in to the driveway! Walking in to pastries is always a plus!
The view and the fire pit at night was what we needed!
Very cute cabin, exactly as described, beautiful lake views, Frank and Linda were wonderful hosts, Linda had a small gift for my husband and had baked muffins and cookies for his birthday. They also had a doggie bag with treats and a toy for our puppy. Very nice stay, would highly recommend it to anyone that was wanting a relaxing get away.

Everything about this stay was absolutely amazing! Frank and Linda were extremely nice and made us feel very welcomed. Frank provided us with bait to fish with that helped us catch an abundance of catfish. Linda is fantastic at gardening and baking, we had home baked goodies waiting on us at arrival. We highly recommend staying here if you have the chance and we are already planning our next visit.
From the moment we arrived we knew we were in for a treat. We give it 5 stars our dogs give it 5 paws. The baked treats were so good. Coffee on the deck each morning started our day off on the right foot. Meet Frank and Linda our hosts have created a magical place to escape to. We will definitely be back again.
Property was as described and very comfortable for us and our pups. Caught some fish, saw a magnificent sunrise, and the extra bonus was meeting Frank and Linda. They simply made our experience so special from Linda’s surprise homemade treats to Franks contagious laughter. Genuine beautiful people💕. Definitely going back!
Frank and Linda were the best hosts. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed. We were welcomed with tasty freshly baked treats and treat bags for our pups too. The bed was so comfortable and the evening views of the sunset from the patio were beautiful. We will definitely be back. This was a last minute getaway and I’m so glad we found it.
Every thing was PERFECT!!!! Best getaway for 2 adults!!! From Frank's funny personality to Linda's fresh baked goodies, our stay was magnificent!!! Even though our last day was filled with rain from the remnants of Hurricane Beryl, it was real peaceful and relaxing!!! This place has no TV, thus giving us time to talk with and focus on each other!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!
Frank and Linda were very accommodating and super friendly!! They were very knowledgeable about the area and lake!! They thought of about everything to make our trip relaxing and fun. Frank was a big help when we had a boat issue and needed a welder.! Linda makes delicious cookies!! Good as my own moms!
The cabin was perfect for me and my wife. Even though we brought some things with us. The place had everything we needed. The lake was practically in the backyard from the house and had the perfect place to fish from. The hosts were very helpful and we enjoyed talking with them. It’s was very quiet and we will definitely be going back. Thank you so much. Tim and Laura
This was our 3rd time to visit Second Wind. Frank and Linda are the sweetest people and make you feel like family. If you want to relax, this is your best bet. The view is the best, anytime of day. If you're ready to get away from it all, slow down and enjoy nature, you won't be disappointed. You never know what kind of goodies Linda is going to bake, but whatever it is, it's delicious!
First things first, the owners of The Second Wind are awesome! Frank and Linda were super welcoming, super friendly, and you can tell they just want their guests to have a good time. They were very accomodating, and knowledgeable about the surrounding area. The cabin was clean, well decorated, and the property was awesome! Dock and shoreline access with AWESOME fishing, and if you feel like getting on the water, Frank and Linda have kayaks! Long story short, go stay here! You wont regret it.
Our hosts Frank and Linda are a delightful couple as we’re the delicious muffins and cookies . We had everything you would expect at a nice hotel including coffee for the Kuerig . Absolutely lovely cabin inside and out . It’s right at the waters edge and there are kayaks and a dock you can use . Nearby Lake House restaurant was very good . Just a 8-10 minute drive . I wish we could have stayed longer and hope to come back again - Mike and Pam
This little cabin on the lake in the woods located off some back roads was everything and more that i was looking for. It had everything you needed (besides food) that you would needed for a weekend stay. We showed up on Friday afternoon with our groceries and didn't have to leave until Sunday. They even had the kayaks there so you can spend some time on the lake. Frank and Linda are a hoot and i loved talking to them. Linda will have some homemade treats there waiting on you. I am definitely going to be back.
All I can say is WOW! Frank and Linda are absolutely great folks and the view from the back porch was beautiful! Linda was so thoughtful and had baked muffins, cookies, and an anniversary package for us! Btw her baking skills are level 10! I very much enjoyed visiting with Frank at our check in. The proposer was PEACEFUL exactly what we were looking for. We will 100% be making a return visit to this gem in east texas.
What an amazing time we had here at “Second Wind!” Such a beautiful scenery with beautiful, breathtaking sunsets. We really enjoyed sitting out by the fire-pit with plenty of available wood to burn. The host Frank and Linda was very accommodating in every way. Linda made wonderful treats in which we sure enjoyed. So sweet and very good!
Had a great time fishing and kayaking even.
The bed and fully remote controlled recliners were very comfortable and so relaxing.
Looking forward to coming back another time.
