Lakeside Secret Garden is a serene lakefront escape in West Tawakoni, TX, set on nearly three acres of peaceful, tree-lined landscape with sweeping water views. Start your mornings with coffee on the deck as deer quietly wander past, then spend your day soaking up the outdoors—swimming from the private sandy beach, launching from the dock, or unwinding in the built-in hot tub. When the sun sets, gather around the fire pit beneath the twinkle of string lights or relax on the screened-in porch with a good game or meal.
Step inside the beautifully updated main house where rustic charm meets modern comfort. The spacious open-concept layout is ideal for quality time together, whether you’re whipping up meals in the chef’s kitchen—complete with a large granite island and plenty of prep space—or curling up in the cozy living room with its oversized sectional, recliner, and 75-inch Smart TV. With high-speed WiFi, you can stay connected or fully unplug. The home features three well-appointed bedrooms and three full bathrooms, plus a wide range of entertainment like ping pong, oversized Jenga, and classic board games for all ages to enjoy.
West Tawakoni, known as the “Catfish Capital of Texas,” sits on the western shore of Lake Tawakoni, a paradise for fishing, boating, and outdoor adventures. The lake is famous for its trophy-sized catfish, white bass, and hybrid stripers, making it a top destination for anglers. Beyond the water, explore nearby hiking trails, wildlife areas, or take a short drive to historic downtown Greenville for unique shops and local dining. Whether you're planning a family getaway, a fishing retreat, or a relaxing escape with friends, Lakeside Secret Garden offers the perfect setting to experience the best of lake life in Texas.
