I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this cabin, the staff and the friendly cat 🐈⬛ Thank you for your hospitality and honesty. I appreciate companies that focus on the customer! Upon arriving, the gal said, "if you don't like the way your room was cleaned, even if there's dust on your baseboard, you let me know because I cleaned it for you and I want it to be right!" This is unheard of! Love to you all, and I hope your business continues to prosper! I will be back! 🌺

This was our second Greater Houston Airstream Club (GHAC) Christmas and installation rally at On the Lake. We had a terrific time for the five nights we stayed and found the staff to be significantly more attentive this year over last. Very friendly and helpful with any needs or questions. A fellow camper needed another section of black water tank dumping conduit and they let him borrow one at no charge and delivered it to his rig for example. The site enjoys a great location on the lake with hillside views for multiple rows of campers. The rally room was large and clean and accommodated our group of almost 70 people for most of our meals and meetings during the cooler and wet weather. Lots of good dining out options nearby as well as a Brookshire's grocery store if your cooking in. Also close to propane and liquor stores for those needs. I have fished on this lake and had great luck catching limits of white bass so we will be sure to return again soon!

What a great RV park! I stayed here for about a year. During that time there was a management change, for the better I might add. All the staff are very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. They now have cabins and several activities including, bingo, karaoke, nachos night, and recently a chili cook-off. And the sunsets!!!! Wow! For a small town (3,000) there are lots of businesses there. Brookshires Groceries, a couple of pretty good Mexican restaurants, and really good BBQ, even a 24 hour gym. Livingston is nearby and Huntsville is not that far. Highly recommended. Maybe I will see you there, I will definitely be back!

We stayed here for two days, Saturday and Sunday and we enjoyed every bit of it. We stayed in cabin #3 and it was so spacious, clean and the bed was very comfortable. It has a full kitchen and a nice covered porch where we cooked and sat out on the porch to eat. This resort is well kept and very peaceful. We went out to the water to fish and it was so peaceful. They have a nice pool and hot tub which is awesome. The workers there are so nice, we met with Ms. Carol and she is awesome! I cannot wait to go back! Thank you for having us ❤️

We found this gem of a resort several years back, and are so glad we did. Full time travel has its perks and one of them is the ability to come back to favorite places, places like this one. The resort sits on a hill alongside Lake Livingston. Loaded with amenities, every site is large, easily accessible even the largest RVs. Lakeside and lakeview sites are blessed with stunning views of wildlife and epic sunsets. Upon arrival checking is easy, well signed and there is plenty of space to disconnect a tow vehicle, The staff is friendly, pool is pristine, and the restaurant lovely. There is a marina, playground, and partitioned off area in the lake for swimming and a small beach area. Whatever kind of camping you like to do, from tents, cottages, to RV’s you are covered at On The Lake RV and Cabin Resort!
