Fishing, Hiking, and Finding Your Inner Cowboy
There’s more to San Augustine than just sitting pretty in a rocking chair—though that’s highly encouraged. This area is brimming with outdoor adventure.
- Lake Sam Rayburn: Just a cast away from our cabins, this massive lake is perfect for boating, fishing, swimming, and gazing thoughtfully across the water like you’re in a country music video. Pack your sunscreen and your best bass-fishing brag.
- Mission Dolores Historic Site: Step back in time and learn about the area’s Spanish and Native American heritage. It’s history with some serious southern hospitality.
- Ayish Bayou Trails: These trails are perfect for a casual hike or leisurely birdwatching stroll. You never know—Bigfoot might be out for a jog.
- Stews, Brews, and Small Town Views: The town square of San Augustine offers a classic southern downtown feel—full of antique shops, sweet tea, and friendly folks who know three generations of your family even if you’ve never met them.
Cabin Life: More Than Just a Roof
At Bland Lake Hideaway, our San Augustine vacation rentals are designed for folks who want to unplug without sacrificing comfort. Each cabin is stocked with the essentials—comfy beds, kitchens with real coffee pots (not those fake hotel ones), and porches perfect for sipping something hot while the world slows down.
Here’s what past guests have said:
- “It felt like home, if home didn’t come with laundry and screaming children.”
- “The best sleep I’ve had since 2003.”
- “I saw a rabbit, and I named it Larry.”
Whether you’re here to fish, hunt, write a novel, or binge-watch nature, our cabins are the place to do it.
Coffee @ Hardware on the Square? Don’t Mind if We Do!
While you’re in town, don’t miss a stop at our local treasure: Hardware on the Square—yes, it’s a hardware store, but also so much more.
Not only can you pick up tools, bait, or a new rake for your chicken coop, but you can also enjoy the best coffee in San Augustine County. Grab a latte or an espresso and hang out in their cozy coffee shop. It’s the kind of place where everybody knows your name… and your lawnmower brand.
Ask about their frozen yogurt too. It pairs surprisingly well with shopping for garden hoses.
Don’t Forget the Farm: Rabbits, Chickens & Unexpected Delight
Before you head back to the real world, make time for a trip to Cackle Berry Farm (right next door to the hideaway). Here, you’ll meet TAMUK rabbits, heritage chickens, and maybe even pick up a dozen fresh eggs.
Kids love it. Adults pretend not to—but leave with four dozen photos and a chicken sticker.
It’s a great way to show the next generation where food comes from—besides the frozen aisle.
Book Your Stay (Before Larry the Rabbit Takes It)
Bland Lake Hideaway is waiting for you. Whether you want a weekend getaway, a peaceful retreat, or just a place to sit on the porch and wave at folks who drive by, we’ve got you covered.
Our San Augustine vacation rentals book fast during holidays, hunting season, and anytime someone says, “I need a break.”
