A sorely needed last minute getaway for my wife and I that turned into a small family gathering for one of the four days we stayed at Belle Oaks in Log Country Cove.
The cabins and Log Country Cove property are visually striking and filled us with a touch of nostalgia for summer camps of our youth and, for me, the Lincoln Log cabins I built as a child.
“Cabin” can mean a lot of things in Texas apparently and these do not disappoint. In fact, we don’t see many actually Log cabins listed when we rent. One of our weekend guests was sure that these weren’t actually real log cabins and that the homes were covered in a log cabin facade.
The Belle Oaks is a two story three bedroom that sleeps 14 I believe. The cabin has three bedrooms with king beds and a loft with two queens, a bunch of twins and a pool table. Two bath with the downstairs bath inside the master suite with a jacuzzi tub. Television and internet work well although we didn’t use them much. Kitchen was stocked with starter items. If you stay longer than a few days you’ll need to bring your own trash bags, paper towels, toilet paper etc.
Everything was clean and functioning but several of the mentioned amenities like horseshoes, tetherball, etc. are no longer there. The horseshoe pit exists but no horseshoes, tether ball was missing, etc. not really a negative for us but could be for someone else.
We had the pool heated and it was amazing. The stars from this location are amazing. The cabin itself is tucked back in the trees and your really feel a sense of privacy.
The only thing that disappointed me was the size of the smoker/grill. The one on location doesn’t do the cabin Justice and could use an upgrade.
Loved this property and will return.
