If you watched True blood you may recognize this place from the opening. This is Caddo Lake, the Texas side. I know, I know, it looks like Louisiana but a big, huge chunk of this lake is actually Texas water and apparently this house was once a speak easy during prohibition.
How amazing is that hand made hutch? I wanted it but have no where for its.
What I love about this part of Texas is how amazingly friendly the people are. We went there last year and met a great guide (ask for Chaz) and we met Karen at Johnson's Ranch at Caddo Lake. They are the greatest! Helpful, kind, and they always have a smile.
If you come on the 1st or 3rd weekend the trade store is open in Uncertain, Tx and you may find a treasure. You can always check out Jefferson. We did but aside from some amazing fudge, I didn't find anything there I couldn't live without or talk myself out of the crazy antique mall prices. It's not cheap buying antiques and I don't want to have to work on a piece I spent hundreds of dollars on to fix them. :-)
These sweet things just sat there taking a nap and ignoring use
This is the place I want t to retire. So beautiful!
Wow. That looks like a great place to relax! And it's almost a little spooky with that weather!
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of spooky! I was just thinking about that, how eerie it could be. The people make it so worth it!
