Recent Lake Buchanan guest reviews

Quiet and dark sky.
Esther F. | Apr 2026
Great, cute spot right on the lake. My family really enjoyed fishing off the dock—we caught carp, catfish, and more. The kayaks were a great bonus. Overall it’s a great place to stay.
Niny V. | Apr 2026
The cabin was delightful. It was the most well stocked place we have ever rented. They’ve thought of everything! We noticed none of the sulfur smell that previous reviewers commented about. Kids visited and said they would definitely rent it and bring their kayaks. It’s right on the water and so relaxing! (Btw we are 93 and 90 years young. We managed very well here.)
