waterfront, multi level gated deck + Kayaks!

Embark on an unforgettable lakeside adventure at Castaway Cottage, nestled on the shores of Lake Bridgeport in Chico, Texas. Directly opposite the North Side Marina and Resort, this exciting location offers easy access to boat rentals and endless water activities. **as of June 1st- the dock has 11-12 feet of water underneath it.

Castaway Cottage's outdoor area is crafted to enhance your lakeside living experience with a blend of functionality and relaxation. From the moment you arrive, the circular drive welcomes you, offering ample parking space, including a cement driveway that accommodates boat trailers easily, making it simple to bring and store your boat during your stay.

The magic of the outdoors truly comes alive in the back of the house. Here, a multi-leveled patio offers a grand view of Lake Bridgeport while ensuring everyone's safety with full gating, perfect for keeping younger guests secure and away from the water’s edge. This thoughtfully designed space features comfortable lounge chairs and outdoor dining tables under a canopy of festive string lights, creating an enchanting environment for evening meals or early morning coffee by the lake.

Entertainment is never in short supply with amenities like a fire pit for storytelling and s'mores under the stars and a cornhole set on the patio for some friendly competition. Whether you're hosting a family barbecue, enjoying a quiet night by the fire, or engaging in games, Castaway Cottage’s outdoor space is tailored to make every moment memorable.

Just off the patio and down the stairs you will have access to our full dock (11 feet of water under the dock as of 5/14), ideal for fishing, swimming, or securing your rented pontoon from the nearby marina. The jet ski, and boat lift are not to be used by guest, but we encourage bringing your own boat to tie up at the dock*

Inside, Castaway Cottage is a spacious living area outfitted with a large sectional sofa, perfect for gathering around for movie nights or unwinding after adventurous lake days. The living room includes a large flat-screen TV equipped with streaming capabilities, ensuring entertainment is always at hand.

Adjacent to the living room is a fully stocked kitchen equipped with all the cookware and utensils you might need to whip up hearty meals. Gather your crew around the large dining table to plan tomorrow’s lake activities while enjoying a dinner straight off the grill.
