Amazing Location | | 3 Ensuite Bedrooms | Sleeps 10

A relaxing getaway for families, friends or groups, our 2,000 sq/ft completely remodeled Big House features everything needed for a wonderful home-away-from-home stay. The oversized eat-in kitchen with island and dining area makes cooking enjoyable and is fully stocked for preparing and serving home-cooked meals. Relax and watch Netflix in the living room or curl up with a good book by the fire after overeating. Three beautiful ensuite bedrooms offer plenty of sleeping options and a great night's sleep for extended family gatherings or groups travelling together.

Getting away often comes with gear. Rest assured, the Big House has room! There is parking for up to 3 trucks with boats and power to charge your batteries.

The Big House is so relaxing it comes with one inherent risk: your guests won't want to leave the Big House. If energy is mustered to wander from the Big House, you're certain to find your guests enjoying any number of Lake Fork Getaways hidden treasures, all just outside your door. Perhaps your guests made it no further than the front porch and are sipping coffee while soaking in a sensational sunrise. Perhaps they're playing cornhole out back. Maybe your guests are relaxing poolside in our fully-fenced courtyard. With BBQ grills and plenty of outdoor seating, the nature nuts in your group are bound to be gathered around the community fire pit, swapping fishing stories or simply consumed by an expansive sunset. Your guests who prefer ceiling fans and air conditioning will be found in our brand new Recreation Room. Big screen Smart TV, board games, darts, billiards, full fridge and coffee bar, our Rec Room boasts meeting space for up to 25 people and is an ideal place for your family reunion, corporate event, church retreat or pre-dawn, coffee-fueled gear check before heading out to seize the day.

Lake Fork Getaways is located under 2 hours from Dallas, under 5 miles from Links at Land's End Golf Club and under 1 mile from SRA6 public boat ramp. Experience Lake Fork Getaways for some of the best bass fishing in the world! Bass, crappie, catfish, panfish, and sunfish swim in abundance.
