Family Fun, Large Deck, King Bed, Firepit, Serene, Lake Close by, Activities

Family fun & relaxation come to mind when you pull into the gated entrance of this stunning home nestled back off the road surrounded by beautiful cedar trees. The views off the huge back deck are truly breathtaking. The sunrise over the Lake Whitney Bridge is something you will truly enjoy as you drink your morning coffee, and what gives this home the name "Bridgeview Lodge".
This home can easily sleep 8 adults, the wall of windows in the living area and main bedroom allow you to enjoy the scenery full of local wildlife. The spacious kitchen, aspen wood finishes, separate barn with ping pong table, firepit surrounded by 4 swings, and many outdoor activities for our guests is just a short list of reasons why this will become your favorite vacation spot! The property is roughly 3 1/4 acres, allowing you to spread out and enjoy yourself.

The kitchen is fully stocked with a high quality cooking pots & pans, a blender, Keurig & a coffee pot, toaster, full size oven, crock pot, cookie sheets, rice cooker, flat electric griddle, BBQ Grill, BBQ Smoker, skewers for smores, kitchen towels, wine bottle opener, and Ice Tea pitcher. We provide ground coffee (kept in freezer), powdered creamer, salt, pepper. (Please bring your favorite K-cup for the Keurig.) We have beautiful butcher block counter tops. Keep in mind that wood and water play well together, but not for long periods of time. For any water that gets on the counters we keep kitchen towels in the drawer to use to keep things clean and dry.

The 2 full baths each have hair dryers and the softest towels which are in different colors so everyone knows which towel is theirs to help avoid confusion! We even have a few extra toothbrushes in case you've forgotten yours (or your kids didn't pack theirs.)

The home has plenty of room to move around without feeling crowded. The main bedroom has a King bed, while the second bedroom & upstairs loft both have Queen beds that all have soft cotton sheets with great pillows and comfy quilts. There are mirrors in both bedrooms so people can get ready while someone else is in the bathroom. Downstairs bedrooms also have dressers to place clothes inside if you are staying for a bit and do not want to live out of a suitcase for your trip. A full-sized closet is available in the front bedroom to hang clothes in. The closet in the back bedroom is used as an owner's closet.

The washing/dryer machine is a hard-working stack-able that is underneath the stairs. Nothing better than returning home with clean swimsuits and kid’s clothes from the lake! (Laundry soap is provided!)

Boat owners, bring the boat with you as there is plenty of room to park and maneuver your boat and trailer on this property. Lake access is a quick 5-minute drive that offers a secluded cove, boat ramp, and dock to launch your boat/canoe/jet ski. Swimming in the cove is also easy and enjoyable as there is a small beach area where the surrounding cliffs keep the waters calm and serene.

Lake Whitney is listed as one of the TOP fishing lakes in Texas. Predominant fish species on the lake include striped, white, smallmouth, and largemouth bass, crappie, and channel, blue and flathead catfish. The lake offers scenic views of gently sloping banks, clear and hardwood timber as well as awe-inspiring views of the limestone bluffs.

Nature enthusiasts will enjoy the spectacular wildlife that frequents the property. Deer can be seen most mornings as well as a family of foxes, and many species of birds. The property backs up to a wooded area with no fence, so the deer come and go in the backyard like it is their playground.

We are located near Corp of Engineer land and Hiking Trails with astounding views of Lake Whitney. The hiking trail is at the end of the street. We usually drive down to the end (you could easily walk it too), and then take the trail to a beautiful quiet cove with some of the best views of the lake. The shoreline along the trail is a great place for fossil hunting. You can see many ammonite fossils embedded in the rock there. We have found some great walking sticks that we leave on the front porch for anyone to use. If you find any good ones on your walks feel free to add to the collection.
