The house appears as it does in pictures. Nice kitchen, bathroom downstairs. The best part is the porch, which is right over the water and has a lovely view. The upstairs is spartan but usable—it does get a bit hot up there, but not unbearably so. Would be a great house to bring a boat as there are two very nice boat slips with automatic doors that can be closed at night. If you plan to fish, be prepared for lots of weeds in the water around the house (as in most Texas and Louisiana lakes). Lots of great bird-watching, we saw a bald eagle several times! Would stay here again.
