Nestled on a serene, private stretch of Toledo Bend Reservoir, this charming waterfront home offers an inviting escape into nature's beauty. Set on three acres of lush, wooded landscape, the residence sits perched atop a gentle hill, providing sweeping views of the reservoir and surrounding greenery. The warm and welcoming ambiance of this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home blends rustic charm with modern comforts, making it an ideal retreat for families or groups seeking both relaxation and adventure.

The home’s expansive living room and kitchen are thoughtfully designed to bring people together, whether preparing meals in the open-concept kitchen or gathering around the fireplace in the cozy living area. Each of the four bedrooms has its own unique charm, from the expansive Master Bedroom with its king bed to the family-friendly Lakeview Room that comfortably sleeps both adults and children. The Minnow Cove Bedroom offers flexible sleeping arrangements, while The Garden View delivers a restful retreat with tranquil views. Outdoors, guests can unwind in the hot tub or gather around the firepit under the stars, creating lasting memories in this peaceful lakeside setting.

For those eager to explore, a short, scenic five-minute hike down a gently sloping nature path leads to the private pier and fish cleaning station—perfect for anglers eager to take advantage of Toledo Bend's renowned fishing opportunities.

Whether you're casting a line, enjoying a lakeside picnic, or simply soaking up the sun on the pier, the natural surroundings add a touch of magic to every moment.

Beyond the property, Milam, Texas, and the surrounding areas offer plenty of opportunities for adventure and relaxation. Spend a day boating or fishing on the reservoir, explore local hiking trails, or visit nearby attractions like the Sabine National Forest. History enthusiasts can delve into the region's rich heritage at local museums, while those seeking a taste of small-town charm will find welcoming cafes and shops in nearby towns. Toledo Bend is also a birdwatcher’s paradise, offering glimpses of rare and migratory species throughout the seasons.

This inviting lakeside retreat seamlessly blends comfort, nature, and adventure, offering a perfect getaway for families, friends, and nature lovers alike. Whether you're enjoying quiet mornings on the deck with coffee in hand or gathering around the firepit as the sun sets over the reservoir, this home promises an unforgettable escape into the heart of East Texas.
