Pine Grove Cottage - Romantic Getaway on Private Lake

Fully furnished cottage in the woods with backyard opening to pine trees and four acre pond. Cottage has wood floors, window air conditioners and homey furnishings. Perfect for a family retreat or a romantic getaway. Located on our 50 acre working ranch, Pine Grove Cottage is tucked away on its own corner of the property with private drive and gated entrance. A sun room runs the length of the house in the back and looks out on the pine grove and lake beyond. An open family room/dining/kitchen is perfect for family gatherings. Guests are free to roam the ranch property which includes expanses of wooded acreage where wildlife and birds abound. Fishing on the lake is available on a "catch and release" basis to ensure fishing remains good for future guests. Lakes are stocked with bass, catfish and bream.

The ranch abounds with wildlife and provides a wonderful opportunity for birdwatching due to its forest and lake features. It is also in a migratory area that is home for many birds (including Bald Eagles) in the fall/winter months. Permanent bird residents are many and varied from songbirds to ducks, herons. hawks, cranes, owls, woodpeckers, and many more.

Canoes and boats are provided for those who want to go out on the lake to fish or just relax. Located within 15 minutes of Pittsburg, Gilmer, and Winnsboro, guests can experience life in the country but enjoy the amenities of a town. In the summer, fresh peaches, blackberries and blueberries are sold at nearby orchards. Golfing, a winery and a variety of restaurants are within 15 minutes of the ranch. For those who enjoy antiques, there are many shops within 15-30 minutes of the ranch.

Wonderful Time
Me and my wife were very happy with all areas of our trip to this property. Very peaceful, quite absolutley beautiful view from back enclosed room and back yard. If you do not like spending time in the outdoors or are looking for a high tech modern vacation this is probably not for you. But if you are looking for a comfortable ( beds very comfortable ) peaceful place to enjoy the outdoors and fishing along with a cabin set in the piney woods then THIS IS FOR you. We both loved our stay and would gladley return for another trip.

This is a wonderful place if you’re looking for some peace and quiet.
The cottage is just the right size. It’s charming and peaceful. There are a few little towns nearby to visit and there is a beautiful vineyard close by. My family has been to Pine Geoce cottage four times now. We will continue to visit in the future.

Had a great time!
Our family had a great time. Place was absolutely beautiful and clean. We spent most of our days around the pond fishing. The kids and I had a blast fishing. We caught some huge bass (6lb 1oz was the biggest but had a couple bigger ones get off) big catfish and absolute giant bluegill. Definitely a relaxing week. The house had everything you need for a week stay.

Great Fishing Getaway
We’ve visit this place at least twice a year and we love it! Paula is a great host and she’s thought of everything. We come to fish and to visit the goats and chickens. Our Australian Shepherd, Bella, loves it and is very at home at Pine Grove. The eggs from the chickens are super fresh and this time we were given a very sweet cantaloupe from Paula’s garden, loved it!

Amazing Weekend
My family and I love to find places out in East Texas. This place did not disappoint at all! It had everything we needed and plenty of room inside for us. But the best part was the beautiful outdoors immediately in the backyard. We stayed outside most of our time there, which is why we left the city for the weekend. We plan on returning as many times as we can. Paula is a great host and very kind.

Peaceful and relaxing
Jim and Paula were great hosts. The entire experience was exactly what we were looking for. Peacefull- with the beauty of fall all around us and quiet solitude- we rowed the little boats all around the lake- fished a little, watched the cranes, the baby goats and the squirrels playing and walked along the roads- this is exactly what you need to forget about- pandemics and the rush of work. You couldn’t ask for better hosts!!! What a lovely place - fresh eggs for breakfast and a rocking chair looking out at the pond- like heaven!

Repeat customer since 2015
I always love staying at Mrs. Paula Archer’s rentals. They’re always so homely and comfortable. All rooms have fantastic ceiling fans and soft furnishings. The kitchen is always equipped for normal dinners, with all the silverware and seasonings. The extensive outside area is always a plus for us, that’s why we’ll drive nearly 2 hours just to stay with her. I can’t wait to return, but I will absolutely book for more than two nights. I want to stay an entire week! I also hope to experience better weather. It was too cold to fish while we were there. Texas weather changes on a dime. Thanks again for a relaxing visit. -Mary

Good old east Texas countryside
The cabin was very clean and tidy and there were good dishes and pots and pans, and everything you need. We stayed in the king bed and it was comfortable enough. The heat and air worked well. We really enjoyed the beauty of the area and the big trees in the back. Paula was a great host and was easy to communicate with. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 was due to the seating in the living area. Great large screen TV, but the little couches in the room are very small and quite uncomfortable for any long term sitting or lounging. We found them hard to relax on comfortably. But we really enjoyed our stay overall. Its a cute little place.

East Texas Sanctuary
If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of life, this is the place for you. Authentic and well-provisioned cottage in the piney forest with a beautiful 10 acre lake in your back yard. Every detail is taken care of and it comes with lots of extras that you do not have to pay extra for, like access to canoes/paddles, flat bottom boats, life preservers, fire pit, corn hole, board games, everything you could possible want or need in the kitchen (very different from most VRBO rentals), satellite TV, wifi, and they even leave frozen biscuits with a local fresh raspberry jam to welcome you to the rental. There are also cute places to eat within easy driving distance (8 to 10 miles) from the cottage. Finally, the fishing is quite good, especially if you like to fly fish. We slayed the bluegill and bass on fly! All catch-n-release, but very productive fishery. You will not be disappointed. Great for friends or a family needing some time away to bond. Highly recommend!

Sons said it was perfect
We stayed over Labor day 2022 weekend for our "last" family unit outing as our oldest gets married in November. We enjoyed are stay very much. Great quality family time. The goats were fun to interact with. We picked this place for the fishing. It was nice to have boats to get out onto the pond. Sadly the fishing wasn't great. We caught a few the morning we left & nothing bigger than half pound. But the guys enjoyed getting out & being together & that was what the weekend was about. We're a college football family so we were able to hook up our roku & watch all our games as the wifi worked well!! Mosquitoes were bad but we did get in 1 night of campfire. The smoke helped keep them away. I only deducted the 1 star for cleanliness because the sunporch windows were filled with gnats & webs. It really took away from the backyard view. My husband & I slept on the porch trundle bed (all beds were comfy) & every night I had a couple of beetles, spiders or flying bugs on me!! I'm not bug friendly so that was a challenge for me. The house inside was clean with plenty of clean towels & sheets. I will say the 2nd bathroom stall shower is very small. Suggest having more bathroom pixs in listing. The Hosts are very kind & quick to respond to issues. The breaker for hot water went out but they had in fixed in an hour. As I said in title our sons felt the weekend was perfect & that is what mattered the most.
