Escape to a Family Getaway At

The Heart of Huxley Bay

A Peaceful Lakefront Cabin w/ Private Pier

Steps away from the Toledo Bend Reservoir

3 bedrooms · 2 baths · Up to 10 Guests

When you need a break from your hectic schedule, the Heart of Huxley Bay is the place to go. All the bases are covered here. Take a swim, cast a line, jump in your boat, or one of the two provided kayaks from the private pier. Bring your toys! We have a large boat/RV carport with power hookups to keep them protected. Relax around the firepit or screened-in patio! If you must, work at the dedicated workstation. The pups are welcome and even have their own fenced run.

The Space


Living Spaces:

With two separate living spaces, there’s plenty of room for everyone to find their groove. The spacious living room features vaulted ceilings with beautiful knotty pine detail. Between the upper dormer windows and the lower windows, the home is flooded with sunshine.


They also create the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy the lakefront view as you relax comfortably on the sofa or leather recliners. When the evening rolls around, take advantage of the lightning-fast (300+Mbps) WiFi to stream your favorite show, movie, or sporting event on the 70” HDTV.


The game room brings the outdoors in with full walls of screening. Here is the spot for a friendly competition on the English dartboard. Then it’s time to crack a beer from mini-fridge and tune in to your favorite streaming service on the flat-screen TV. Or maybe play a board game from the extensive collection.


Cooking & Dining:

The fully-equipped kitchen has an open-concept style, perfect for keeping up with the conversation! You’ll find all you need to create anything from a simple snack to a gourmet meal. Maybe you’ll get lucky with some fresh fish for dinner! The large peninsula bar comfortably seats three.


With the stunning views and comfortable weather, you may want to enjoy your meals alfresco. We make it easy with a picnic table, charcoal grill, and a firepit that doubles as a grill with Adirondack chairs all around.


Sleeping Accommodations and Bathrooms:

The Heart of Huxley Bay sleeps up to 10. The first level features two queen bedroom suites and the loft has two full beds and an available full air mattress.


We also provide a pack ’n’ play for your little ones.

Each of the two ensuite baths offers a tub/shower.


For our remote worker guests, the loft boasts a complete workstation, including mounted monitors, docking station, wireless keyboard/mouse, and printer!


Outdoor Amenities:

Where do I start?! The star of the show here is Mother Nature herself - just check out that amazing lakefront view, as soon as you set foot out the front door.


The private pier allows you to swim, fish, or boat (or any combination thereof!) right outside the front door.

Gather around the firepit in the evenings to grill the catch of the day, roast marshmallows, or maybe just tell some ghost stories. Firewood is included.

Try your luck at the included yard games like ladder golf, kan-jam, and bottle bash.

Bring all your toys!

We’ve got a large boat/RV carport with power hookups.

We love dogs and think no vacation is complete without our furry family members. They even get their own bed and fenced run here.

Catch an afternoon siesta in the braided rope hammock.


Extras:

It’s our goal to create a 5-star experience for all our guests. One of the ways we do that is by providing all the extras we would want on a lake vacation. Some of these extras include kayaks, basic fishing poles and tackle, coolers, and folding camp chairs.

ABOUT

Josh & Laurie

heartofhuxleybay@gmail.com

Hello! We are Josh and Laurie and we’re thrilled to share the Heart of Huxley Bay as your vacation destination. We purchased this property in the fall of 2020 as a pandemic escape.


After having spent weeks at a time here, enjoying the solitude, the beautiful scenery, the wildlife, and all the wonder of the natural world on an “up close and personal” basis, we decided that we’d like to share this experience with others.


A couple of our great loves are (not surprisingly) travel, and the outdoors. We also enjoy hunting, fishing, and skiing on both the water and the land! Welcome to Heart of Huxley Bay.


If there's anything we can do to make your stay perfect let us know. We hope you enjoy your stay!


REVIEWS

This cabin is an all around great time!!! Perfect for two small families or a larger family who are looking to unplug for a few days in a comfortable lakeside cabin. The property is well positioned in the cove to prevent too much current coming off the main lake. Perfect for kayaking or boating (ramp is right across the water). The views of the sunset on the lake around the fire were incredible. Highly recommend this place!

Super nice place! It was clean and had everything we needed. BBQ pit, fire pit, hammock, multiple TVs, a TV outside, a nice dock. Josh has a guide on places to check out locally, what to bring, and what the house has provided. This was tremendously helpful. Our only regret is we didn’t stay longer. We plan to be back


-Rebecca, Dec 21

Exceeded Expectations. Clean, spacious, comfortable and just Lovely. Very well stocked, just bring food, clothes and some bait! Host has gone out of their way to give you all the information you could possibly need.. everything from the closest place for groceries to how to light the charming fireplace. Perfect place to relax with more than you need to stay entertained. Book it, you'll feel right at home!

Had an amazing time here! Spent a few days for Thanksgiving with family and we were honestly so sad to leave. The place was beautiful, peaceful and had everything we could need.


-Briea, Nov21

Had a great time at the lake house! The kids loved getting on the kayaks, laying on the hammock and swimming in the lake. House was perfect! And our dog probably had the most fun with all the room to run :). We will definitely be back.
