Hey YA’LL! It's been a year now, and it’s oficially STAT-urday. STATISTICs Saturday. These are the numbers for our first year doing this rental thing.  We started back OFICIALLY (meaning not just family and friends, but publicly) in March 2024.  Anyways here are the numbers, trivia, factoids, and maths on our STR (short-term rental) and websites.  REMEMBER...you have to call it a STR now because AIRBNB is like calling tissue, Kleenex.  Because we are now listed on many more rental websites. We are no longer an airbnb but a STR. whatever. anyway.  So now. On with the FUN. This is now officially 1 year in.  We started renting out to the public in March of 2024.

Here is where our great guests have visited from: So far......Our furthest visitors have been from England & India. But we have also had guests from over 9 different states here in the U.S. Including Texas is maybe cheating, but we are still counting it.

Only 1 month to go before we have been officially at the short-term rental business for a year.  Be on the lookout for our 1-year update. I will give you a glimpse into what we have learned and earned.

We got three more kayaks for our guests to enjoy. Another tandem and 2 singles. That makes for a total of 5 (3 Tandems and the 2 Singles) Next, we need to get a hold of one or two kids kayaks. Then I really need to get to work on fixing up the KAYAK SHACK to store them all. More to come. Make your reservations today for spring breaks and summer vacations.

"FISH MORE - WORRY LESS" Sounds like a great new years resolution to me. We are once again SUPERHOSTS!!  Thank you everyone!  Come see what all the fuss is about at the Chilcottage on Lake Tawakoni in 2025.

We want to thank all of our wonderful guests and families that have stayed with us over 2024.  You guys are the BEST!!!  When you want to book your next trip for fishing, get togethers, birthdays, or more just let us know.  And make sure to tell all your friends and family too, word of mouth is basically how we roll.  We hope you all have a happy and safe new years celebrations and the best 2025 you can possibly have.  We will see you next year.
